Ben Affleck declared his love for Latinas just four months after finalizing his divorce from his Puerto Rican ex-wife, Jennifer Lopez.

The “Accountant 2” star made the proclamation while getting dinner at Lavo in West Hollywood, Calif., on Thursday.

A TMZ paparazzo asked Affleck in Spanish how he felt about being “Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor,” prompting the actor to reply, “Muy bien,” which translates to “very good.”

Affleck, 52, was then asked whether he still likes Latinas, to which he assured the photographer, “Of course I do.”

The Oscar-winning Hollywood hunk learned how to speak Spanish fluently at the age of 13 while filming a children’s show in Mexico for a year.

Meanwhile, Lopez, 55, has known the language since infancy, as both of her parents were born in Puerto Rico before meeting in Manhattan and settling in the Bronx.

Affleck and J.Lo called off their first engagement in the early 2000s due to the pressures of fame, but they reignited their romance in 2021 before he popped the question for the second time in April 2022.

The duo tied the knot that July, but their marital bliss was short-lived; Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, and they settled the case in January.

During their whirlwind second relationship, Bennifer blended their families, having both had children with ex-spouses before getting married to each other.

Even after their divorce, Affleck — who shares three kids, Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — has maintained a close relationship with Lopez’s 17-year-old twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony: Max and Emme.

The “Gone Girl” star even attended his latest film premiere with J.Lo’s kids, assuring reporters on the red carpet that he and their mom still have love for each other.

“For the record, Jennifer Lopez is spectacular, great to my kids, great ongoing relationship with them,” he told “Entertainment Tonight” at the premiere of “The Accountant 2” in Los Angeles last month.

He added, “I love her kids. They are wonderful. She is enormously important, [a] tremendous person of a lot of integrity who I adore and am grateful to.”
