Lisa Barlow Shares Throwback Photo with Ben Affleck Amid Jennifer Lopez Divorce Drama

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Lisa Barlow made a shocking turn, placing herself in the middle of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s divorce buzz. On Thursday, August 22, she posted an old picture of herself with Ben Affleck on Instagram, to none other than Jennifer Lopez’s hit song If You Had My Love.

The reality TV star, who does love a glamorous event or two, captioned the post: “I always throw a great house party” as she smiled alongside the Batman actor who had his arm around her.

The post quickly stirred up reactions online, with one user on X questioning Barlow’s decision to share the photo during such a sensitive time. Not wanting an online war, Barlow was quick to clarify that she wasn’t taking sides.

Right away, she insisted that what her post had been was simply a funny throwback. She would later drive this point even further by sharing another old photo—this time with Jennifer Lopez herself during a meet and greet.

Barlow has been quite vocal in the past about how much of a fan she is of Lopez. She even shared how Lopez’s music played a part in her engagement with her now-husband, John Barlow. In an older Instagram story, she reflected that moment where she knew he had feelings for her when he took her out to dinner with All I Have playing by Lopez.

Anyway, coming back to the power couple of Hollywood, Lopez and Affleck’s relationship has been real ups and downs. Following the two-decade-long relationship, the divorce was filed by Lopez from Affleck on Tuesday, August 20.

On the whole, the couple finally started dating in 2002, although it seems like things moved at quite a pace for this to become one of the most talked-about couples in the industry. Though the couple got engaged, they broke up in 2004.

Subsequently, Affleck entered into marriage with Jennifer Garner, and Lopez did the same with Marc Anthony. The love between the two remained unabated as they met again in 2021. They had married in Las Vegas in 2022 and held a second ceremony among family and friends in Georgia.
