He was the one who dubbed it “The Greatest Love Story Never Told.” So when Ben Affleck recalls learning that Jennifer Lopez shared his love letters with musicians working on her new album — and they nicknamed him “Pen” Affleck — he cringes. “That seems kind of like telling it,” he points out in her Amazon Prime documentary. “Things that are private, I’d always felt were sacred and special. So that was a bit of an adjustment for me.”
Still, throughout much of the documentary, he’s the one behind the camera asking questions. “The fact that Ben was involved at all is mindboggling to most outsiders, but he’s doing it because it’s important to Jennifer, and he loves and supports her,” says a source, adding that Ben himself has pointed out they have a different approach to their careers and are learning to compromise. “As they’ve grown older, they actually accept each other more and are less frustrated by their differences. In many ways, this is his story, too.”
