“Fat people can be just as aloof and dull”: Ben Affleck’s Subtly Dissed His Ex Long Before She Called Him “Technically Excellent” at S*x
xDespite facing a challenging personal life, marked by a divorce and a stint in rehab, Ben Affleck managed to sustain an illustrious career in the movie industry, with his success as an actor and filmmaker soaring to new heights. His portrayal of Batman in various blockbuster films garnered widespread acclaim, solidifying his status as a versatile and captivating actor.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck’s relationship began after meeting at a party hosted by Harvey Weinstein in the late ’90s. They dated on and off from 1997 to 2000 and appeared together in the films Shakespeare in Love (1998) and Bounce (2000). Their relationship had both enjoyable moments and challenges. In a 2015 interview, Paltrow mentioned that dating Affleck was fun, but her parents didn’t approve. She described him as intelligent, talented, and funny, but also mentioned that he wasn’t in a good place in his life to be in a committed relationship. Despite the ups and downs, they remained fond of each other. They initially broke up in 1999, briefly reconciled, and ultimately ended their relationship in 2000.
Why Gwyneth Paltrow shared Intimate Details Publicly?
Gwyneth Paltrow’s romantic journey led her to an engagement with Pitt during the mid-90s, but as time went on, they decided to part ways. Following that chapter, Paltrow found herself in a relationship with her co-star from Shakespeare in Love, Ben Affleck. However, their love story ultimately came to an end in 2000. These shifts in her personal life reflected the natural ebb and flow of relationships, as Paltrow navigated the complexities of love and pursued her own path of self-discovery.
While appearing on the Call Her Daddy podcast hosted by Alex Cooper, Gwyneth Paltrow made a comparison between her exes Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt, discussing their kissing abilities, acting skills, and sexual experiences. She expressed surprise and perhaps discomfort at the fact that her daughter might be listening to such intimate details being discussed publicly.

“That’s really hard, because Brad was like the sort of ‘major chemistry, love of your life’ at the time, and then Ben was like technically excellent,” she said, adding, “I can’t believe my daughter is listening to this.” Paltrow continued, “They’re both so talented,” she said. “I feel like — and Ben is a great writer and director — but I guess I’d probably have to say, acting alone, Brad. If you think of all the really different roles he’s done… Ben is great too. They’re both great.”
Ben Affleck criticized Gwyneth Paltrow Long Before
Mr. Affleck often receives criticism, and in an interview, he once made a hurtful comment about Ms. Paltrow. He jokingly said that she is like a funny and down-to-earth person who is overweight, but still has a beautiful appearance. This comment was not well-received, as it was seen as disrespectful and hurtful towards Ms. Paltrow. ”I hesitate to elaborate for fear of another pounding at the hands of fat girls offended by the assumption that they are either funny or down-to-earth,” he said adding, ”I apologize. Fat people can be just as aloof and dull as center-of-the-bell-curve-shaped people.”
Despite facing constant scrutiny from the tabloids, Ben Affleck’s personal life remained a subject of public interest. Following his highly publicized breakup with Paltrow and then Jennifer Lopez, Affleck entered into a relationship with Jennifer Garner, tying the knot in 2005 and welcoming three children together. Unfortunately, the couple’s marriage ended in divorce in 2018. However, Affleck and Lopez’s love story took an unexpected turn as they rekindled their romance, culminating in their marriage in 2022, captivating the media and fans alike.
