Why Ana de Armas Broke Up With Ben Affleck
Ben Affleck and actress Ana de Armas have split, a source told People.
"Ben is no longer dating Ana," the source said. "She broke it off. Their relationship was complicated. Ana doesn't want to be Los Angeles based and Ben obviously has to since his kids live in Los Angeles."
Another source told the publication that the couple made the decision together: "This is something that was mutual and something that is completely amicable. They are in different points in their lives; there is deep love and respect there. Ben continues to want to work on himself. He has three jobs lined up and he’s a solid father at home. They are both happy with where they are in their lives."
Reports of Affleck and de Armas's romantic involvement first began in March of 2020, when they were spotted on a trip in Cuba.

"Ben and Ana had a great time in Havana," a source told People then. "Ana was his tour guide and took him to all her favorite places. Ben seemed to love the trip. He was in a great mood and very friendly. He was approached by fans multiple times and happily posed for pictures. They visited several restaurants and enjoyed Cuban cuisine."
In June, they were photographed (masked, because we were well into the COVID-19 pandemic then), at a Black Lives Matter protest together in Los Angeles.

Later that month, they reportedly spent some time in Georgia with Ben's mom, Christine, and his three kids, whom he shares with Jennifer Garner.
"They are spending a few days in Georgia with Ben's kids. It's a low-key vacation," the source said to People then. "Ana seems to love being around his kids. Everyone has been getting along great. Ana is making an effort to get to know his kids."
In August of 2020, a source told Us Weekly: "Ben is so sweet to Ana and does everything he can to make her happy. She can say anything—lunch, trips, etc., and he will make it happen."
