Ana de Armas talks about ex-boyfriend Ben Affleck for the first time

Ana de Armas separated from Ben Affleck at the end of last year.

But the 32-year-old Knives Out star opened up about the Oscar winner during her interview with The Sunday Times Style which was conducted just before the romance ended.

During her conversation, the brunette beauty touched on the 48-year-old Batman star’s clothing choices.

While discussing her penchant for wearing a number of T-shirts with Spanish phrases, she noted that she also owns a few from the popular Cuban brand, Clandestina.

“Ben became obsessed with them,” she said of her affinity for slogan shirts. “Every time we go there, he buys the whole store.

When the post attempted to get back with the Cuban-born beauty about her change in relationship status, her rep simply told the magazine, “ We have no information to share. ”

Ana and Ben got closer while filming the movie Deep Water in late 2019 and early 2020 in New Orleans.

In the spring of 2020, Ben was by her side as she walked back and forth from her Venice Beach, California home.

It seemed the two were getting very serious as they went looking for a house together and she was seen playing with two of the three children he has with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

Some publications predicted he would propose while others claimed he was “in love” and Ana was “the maid”.

So it was a shock to the fans when it was announced that they were no longer dating.

Since then, Ben has been spotted looking gaunt outside his Los Angeles home as he picked up his delivery of Dunkin Donuts.

Ben has a long and varied love story as he was married to Garner, but also dated Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez.

Despite Ana and Ben’s romantic relationship ending, the old flames “ still speak regularly, ” the People source reported. “The friendship between Ben and Ana is not over,” the insider revealed.

The site also said it was Ana who called the union.

Ana didn’t want to live full-time in Los Angeles – which is Ben’s home because of his children and ex-wife Garner, this was also shared.

Since their separation, the father of three has spent “a lot” of time with his children and “continues to work on himself,” the source said.

Also in her interview, the Golden Globe nominee reflected on becoming a household name after starring in Knives Out and Blade Runner 2049 in 2019 almost four years ago.

She said networking with the “right people” was “kind of” her life.

During the chat, she also revealed that it took a lot of work to perfect Marilyn Monroe’s gasping voice for her role in the upcoming Blonde movie.

“It only took me nine months of coaching and dialect practice, and a few sessions of MARC,” she said. “It was a big torture, so exhausting. My brain was fried.

She also pointed out that women in Hollywood face many of the same challenges as their “1930s, 1940s, 1950s” predecessors.

“If you don’t have a solid foundation, with your family, etc., it’s really hard to get by – really hard,” she said.

And she talked about leaving Cuba as a teenager with about $ 355 in her pocket.

“In Cuba, you live in a bubble. I didn’t know what the world was like. I had never traveled in my life, ”she told herself.

She added: ‘I guess – and I think so in the best possible way – being ignorant of some things can help you because you have no fear. I just went and I did.

“If I had to do it now, knowing what it is and what I had to go through, I would be scared. But I’m glad I did. I haven’t thought twice about it, ”the star remarked.
