Jennifer Lopez holds hands with Matt Damon during close conversation at TIFF
Despite her divorce from Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez and Matt Damon have maintained a relationship while doing business together.
Matt Damon and Jennifer Lopez are still cordial, despite the singer’s recent divorce from Damon’s lifelong pal Ben Affleck.
Damon and Lopez were photographed holding hands while in deep conversation at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) over the weekend.
According to Page Six, Lopez joined a table occupied by Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, and chatted with the pair for about 20 minutes.
Affleck, who began living separately from Lopez this spring before she filed for divorce in August, did not attend the festival.
An ‘Unstoppable’ business relationship
Though Lopez and Affleck’s marriage is over, the pair (and Damon) have a business relationship for the foreseeable future.

Lopez and Damon were at the festival for the premiere of “Unstoppable,” a sports biopic that co-stars Lopez and is produced by Damon and Affleck’s Artists Equity.
“Unstoppable,” is based on the true story of a Division I wrestling champion Anthony Robles (Jharrel Jerome, “Moonlight”), who was born with only one leg. Lopez plays Robles’ mother, who along with his wrestling coach (Michael Peña) inspires Robles to pursue his dreams.
Before and after Friday night’s TIFF premiere, Lopez and Damon posed for photos alongside Amazon executives and “Unstoppable” co-stars such as Bobby Cannavale and Don Cheadle.
