Ben Affleck<\/a> is weighing in on something that has been bothering Real Housewives of Salt Lake City<\/a> fans.<\/p>\n

The 53-year-old actor was asked whether or not he knew Lisa Barlow<\/a>, who previously claimed she was going to an event that would be attended by \u201cBen and Blake,\u201d presumably meaning Ben Affleck<\/a> and Blake Lively<\/a>, and that was the reason she was unable to film with her co-stars at the time.<\/p>\n

While promoting his new movie The Rip<\/a>, Access Hollywood asked Ben if he knew anything about this event and even showed him a photo of Lisa to see if he knew her. <\/p>\n

Ben was hesitant to say whether or not he knew her because he didn\u2019t want to \u201cget anybody in trouble,\u201d but then his co-star Matt Damon<\/a> chimed in to ask when the last time he was in Utah, which is where the event in question likely took place.<\/p>\n

To that, the Gone Girl alum said he hadn\u2019t been to Utah for maybe up to 10 years. <\/p>\n

Ultimately, Ben said, she \u201cdoesn\u2019t look familiar to me, and I don\u2019t remember it. I don\u2019t want to embarrass her,\u201d he and Matt added that they meet lots of people at these events so it\u2019s possible, but seemed unlikely.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019m qualified to weigh in on this,\u201d he ultimately concluded. <\/p>\n

Actually, Lisa and Ben have met at least once and taken a photo together<\/a>. She previously shared a pic in 2024 and also shared one of her alongside Jennifer Lopez<\/a> as they were posted around the time of their split.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Ben and Matt shared their least favorite thing about each other!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ben Affleck is weighing in on something that has been bothering Real Housewives of Salt Lake City fans.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":419040,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,134,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-419039","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/419039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=419039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/419039\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/419040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=419039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=419039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=419039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
