Bennifer’s biggest public moment as a couple so far has arrived. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez made their red carpet debut at the 2021 Venice Film Festival’s premiere of The Last Duel today. Affleck wore a black suit, while Lopez went glamorous in a white plunge dress by Georges Hobeika. She accessorized with Cartier jewelry, specifically a bracelet, ring, and earrings with radiant yellow diamonds. Cartier is the official jewelry sponsor of the festival.

Their big red carpet moment comes after the two were photographed together in Venice yesterday and today. Lopez wore a white lace dress yesterday and a striking black stripe two-piece earlier Friday.

Lopez spoke in July about how blissful she has been amid her new, rekindled romance with Affleck, which started in May.
“I’m super happy,” she told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1. “I know people are always wondering. How are you? What’s going on? Are you okay? This is it. I’ve never been better. And I want my people who care about me because I care about them so much, to know that I’ve really gotten to a place in my life where I’m great on my own. And I think once you get to that place, then amazing things happen to you that you never imagine in your life happening again. And so that is where I’m at. And I love all the love that’s coming my way right now and all of the, the good wishes. And I just want everybody to know that it’s the best time. It’s the best time of my life.”
Earlier today, TMZ reported Lopez and Affleck plan to spend part of their fall together in Austin, where Affleck will be shooting a new project. Lopez won’t be there all the time though, its sources said, as she has her own projects and life happening.
