LONDON, ENGLAND: Jennifer Lopez, who recently separated from Ben Affleck, has been spotted with a new, strikingly handsome bodyguard who reportedly resembles a young Alexander Skarsgard. 

During her recent trip to London, the 55-year-old star held hands with the blonde bodyguard, believed to be of Scandinavian descent, as they exited a black SUV.

Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, the second anniversary of the former couple's formal wedding ceremony.

Jennifer Lopez's new bodyguard resembles a 'chiseled Adonis'

Dressed in kitten-heeled dominatrix boots, Jennifer Lopez appeared at ease as she leaned on the muscular figure, who wore a distinctive gray blazer with a lapel pin which read “PG.”

Reportedly, the man is seen in the same grey and black attire every time he is spotted with Lopez. 

A source close to Lopez told Daily Mail, “He is a new addition to her security team, but he is not the only one. She has several security guards around her whenever she goes out; they are just hard to see.”

Though a fresh face in her entourage, he has reportedly worked with Lopez for a year, primarily providing support during her Amazon projects.



 

This aligns with her upcoming film 'Unstoppable', produced by Amazon Prime. 

The bodyguard, described as a "chiseled Adonis," (a Greek mythological figure) was also seen accompanying Lopez in New York City on November 3, supporting her on her way to a high-rise building. 

In one of her Instagram reels in New York, he was seen moving past her, allowing the paparazzi to click the diva in her brown ensemble. She captioned the post, "Autumn is autumning. UNSTOPPABLE."

While fans might wonder about his availability, it turns out the bodyguard is already married, as reported by Daily Mail.

For high-profile celebrities like Lopez, bodyguard services come at a considerable cost.

Standard bodyguard fees average around $125 per hour, though top-tier security can soar to $1,000-$1,500 per hour.

For Lopez, who has employed security for over 25 years, this is part of maintaining her safety and privacy as one of the world’s biggest stars.

Her protection detail has even included Israeli guards and female security personnel, making this new blonde guard a fresh addition to her trusted team.

Jennifer Lopez reveals her secret holiday wind-down routine 

Beyond her security detail, Jennifer Lopez has remained steadfast in her self-care routines, especially during the holiday season.

In a recent interview with People, the JLo Beauty founder shared her winding-down rituals, saying, “Once the kids have gone to bed, I'm like, okay, my time. Put my face mask on. Watch The Great British Baking Show or whatever's on.”

Amid the rush of holiday preparations, she still makes time for “pampering,” which helps her feel balanced and rejuvenated.

Her holiday skincare collections include the That Limitless Glow Face Masks, featured in several gift packs along with other JLo Beauty essentials.

Lopez’s self-care philosophy is grounded in simplicity, as she allegedly revealed to Vogue in its Vogue Beauty Secrets series. “I’ve always had a very simple skin-care routine,” she said.

“The truth is if you start young, it will make a huge difference… Remember: I am magnificent, and my life is full of joy, laughter, adventure, and love. Success and prosperity too.”

Jennifer Lopez poses in stunning Dior outside $68M Bel Air mansion

In other news, the 'Atlas star' continues to live in the $68 million Bel Air mansion she once shared with Ben Affleck, even though the home has been on the market for over seven months.

Last week, she posed outside the luxurious white house, wearing a chic Dior outfit, showing that she hasn’t yet moved on to a new residence.

Despite reportedly searching with her real estate agent, the singer and her teenage twins, Max and Emme, are still calling the Bel Air estate their home for the time being.

Even if the property sold recently, it’s noteworthy that Lopez continues to live in the mansion, a rare choice for recently separated couples who typically prefer to leave shared spaces behind.
