Affleck dating SNL producer

-

Ben Affleck is reportedly in the “early stages” of dating Saturday Night Live producer Lindsay Shookus.

Affleck split from wife Jennifer Garner in June 2015 and filed for divorce from Garner, the mother of his three children, in April.

Now E! News has reported that Affleck is dating Shookus.

“They are in the early stages (of their relationsh­ip). It’s more than a summer fling,” a source told the outlet.

“They are having fun and care for each other. It’s early and they are taking it slow.”

They are said to have met up in London recently, where they enjoyed an evening out to see Sam Mendes’ play Ferryman as well as a number of other dates. They have also apparently been seen meeting up in Los Angeles.

News of Affleck’s alleged new romance comes after he travelled to the Bahamas with Garner and their children for a family break.

A source says they spent much of their time at Baker’s Bay in Great Guana Cay — the same location the family escaped to in 2015, when they first revealed they had split.

“It was a great opportunit­y to keep the norm going for the kids,” a source close to Affleck reportedly told Us Weekly. Garner “will always do whatever it takes to provide the best arrangemen­ts for them that she can.”

But while the vacation sparked rumours the pair could be getting back together, the former couple are reportedly not planning to reunite. WENN
