As mentionedthe other day, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are on their honeymoon in Italy. They were seen earlier this week in Lake Como, reportedly staying at George Clooney’s house. Now they’re in Milan, and were photographed shopping and walking around town giving big honeymooner energy. There was kissing and handholding and at one point inside a store, they were hugging and sweet-talking (or sex-talking) each other and his hand was all over her ass… so, obviously, these two, are living in bliss…

And it’s not like they didn’t know the paps were there. They knew and didn’t care – which I’m bringing up because, you’ll recall, a couple of weeks ago, after their familymoon in Paris, which turned into its own show,Page Sixreported that Ben had issues with the paps and wasn’t comfortable being such a heatscore. There was an undertone to that report, and the subtle suggestion was that JLo’s the one who brings all this crazy into his life. Like she wants it and he’s just kinda being dragged along. As if they’re not two celebrity adults who are veterans in this business.

That was the familymoon. Now it’s the honeymoon and, well, it’s not like they snuck away to a remote location. This is Milan! And maybe there’s some irony here – because I think by now we all know the origin of the word “paparazzo”, right? From Federico Fellini’sLa Dolce Vita? Filmed in Rome but the world premiere…was in Milan. So, once again, I’m side-eying Page Six’s source saying that Ben was “struggling” with the paps in Paris. Nobody is going to Italy, the birthplace of the paparazzi, against their will.
