Natalie Barr has delivered a scathing assessment of the current state of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s relationship.
The topic was discussed on Tuesday by the Sunrise panel, consisting of Natalie Barr, Matt Shirvington and Mark Beretta, discussing how the Hollywood couple were spotted together last weekend and rumors of a possible reconciliation.
“Many are wondering if there is a possible reconciliation in their on-again, off-again relationship,” host Monique Wright said as she introduced the short segment.
“The estranged couple reportedly had breakfast with their children in Beverly Hills. Sources at the same location reported seeing the two holding hands and kissing,” she continued.
Back on the couch, Monique asked the panel if Jennifer and Ben had reached a certain point in their relationship.
“Do you think they’ve reached the point where they’re throwing up on their ex yet?” she asked.
Nat answered without hesitation with a resounding “yes,” after which he assumed that the two “couldn’t stand each other.”
“They’re just doing it for the kids,” Nat added in her merciless assessment of the relationship.

In the blink of an eye, Nat reversed her original decision and admitted, “No, I have no idea.”
Hopeless romantic Mark Beretta continued to offer hope to the couple.
“There’s something, isn’t there?” he asked. “They just keep coming back.”
“Beretts is team Bennifer,” Nat replied. “Who would have thought.”
Jennifer filed for divorce from Ben last month, after months of speculation about the state of their marriage.
“Do you think they’ve reached the point where the thought of their ex makes them throw up?” Monique Wright asked the Sunrise panel
In court documents seen by DailyMail.com, the singer listed April 26, 2024 as the date of their separation.
A source close to the star told DailyMail.com that people close to Jennifer are fed up with her chaotic love life.
“After four failed marriages, her friends think she needs to take a good look at herself and focus on herself instead of what others expect of her. She wants to finally figure out who she is and what she wants for her future,” the insider said.
The source told DailyMail.com that the My Love Don’t Cost A Thing star isn’t the only one capable of playing mind games.
The insider explained Ben’s approach this way: ‘Jennifer said she was tired of being humiliated by Ben and that she waited until the two-year anniversary because she wanted to stab him.
“But it didn’t hurt him. He’s been done for a long time and deep down she knows it. He gave her this so she wouldn’t look like the bad guy.”
The couple first sparked rumors of a split when they weren’t seen together for 47 days.
However, in recent months, the two have been spotted together a few times, but surprisingly always in the presence of Ben’s children. They are reportedly trying to rekindle their romance.
Without hesitation, Nat replied with a resolute ‘yes’ before suggesting the couple ‘can’t stand each other’ and adding: ‘They’re just doing it for the kids’
