JLo ‘using’ relationship with Ben Affleck ‘to make Diddy jealous’ as rapper is still her ‘true love’ after 2001 split
JENNIFER Lopez is using her “Bennifer 2.0” fling with Ben Affleck to send a message to the true love of her life P Diddy, according to a celeb photographer who covered her relationships for two decades.
The superstar, 51, has stunned the world in recent weeks with a steady stream of public displays of affection with old flame Ben following her split from former baseball slugger fiancee Alex Rodriguez.
But photographer, journalist and socialite Selma Fonseca believes that JLo never got over her romance with rap mogul Diddy, also 51, and is still determined to make him jealous.
It comes after the father-of-six – estimated by Forbes to be worth almost $900 million – recently raised eyebrows by posting an Instagram photo of himself with JLo from when they were dating.
Fans were quick to speculate that Diddy, who was with the If You Had My Love singer from 1999 to 2001, did it in part to tease Ben, 48, but also to drop a flirty message to his one-time lover.
Selma shared pictures with The Sun that show her in affectionate poses with Diddy and the two men she married after breaking up with him – backup dancer Chris Judd and Grammy-winning Latin heartthrob Marc Anthony.
Her camera also captured JLo getting steamy with Casper Smart, the toy boy who became her boyfriend following her divorce from Anthony.
Selma was present as Smart ran his hand suggestively down JLo’s bare back at the Weinstein Company’s 2013 Golden Globes afterparty.
She said: “Diddy was a guest at the same party, I noticed JLo and Casper sitting on a couch, he was caressing her back while Diddy was standing not too far from them.
