J.Lo’s New Bodyguard Has Everyone Talking—And Speculating
Just three months after her split from Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez has been making headlines again—this time, not for a new romance but for the striking new addition to her security team.
During a recent trip to London, the 55-year-old singer and actress was spotted holding hands with a handsome, blond bodyguard, sparking speculation across social media. Some fans are convinced this is simply a security measure, while others can’t help but wonder if there’s more to the story.
A New Face in J.Lo’s Inner Circle
Since her high-profile breakup in August 2024, Lopez has been embracing change. She recently underwent LASIK eye surgery and has spoken about feeling excited to “fly solo” again. Meanwhile, her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, has reportedly been experimenting with his hairline.
But now, the attention has shifted to Lopez’s security detail—particularly her new, Scandinavian-looking bodyguard. The Daily Mail even compared him to a young Alexander Skarsgård, noting that he often wears a gray blazer with a silver lapel pin marked “PG.”
A source told the outlet, “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’re just hard to see.”
This isn’t the first time Lopez has been seen with him. On November 3, he was spotted escorting her in New York City. According to reports, he wasn’t part of her security team during her marriage to Affleck, making his sudden presence all the more intriguing.
J.Lo’s History of High-Profile Security
Jennifer Lopez is known for her meticulous approach to personal security. For the past 25 years, she has employed a mix of elite bodyguards, including Israeli security professionals and female guards. Whether she’s heading to the gym or attending a major event, her team ensures she’s always protected.
Her security team has occasionally made headlines for the wrong reasons. In 2004, one of her bodyguards, Nathan Butts, was investigated for allegedly seizing a memory card from a partygoer’s camera. In 2001, another was caught smuggling marijuana and hashish across the U.S.-Canada border, hidden in his socks.
Despite the occasional controversy, Lopez’s security detail is typically a well-oiled machine. A memorable moment occurred in 1999 when she arrived at the Cincinnati Art Museum wearing a fur coat, holding her tiny poodle adorned with a diamond tiara. While she toured the museum, her dog stayed outside under the watchful eye of her bodyguard—much to the amusement of onlookers.
The Internet Reacts
After photos of Lopez holding hands with her new bodyguard surfaced, social media had plenty to say. One viral comment read, “She can’t be single for five minutes. She needs to focus on her kids.”
Others joked that history might repeat itself, given Lopez’s well-documented love life. Before rekindling things with Affleck, she had high-profile relationships with Alex Rodriguez, Drake, Marc Anthony, Diddy, and backup dancer Casper Smart.
Some are already making predictions: “Better get the hats ready, ladies—I feel a wedding invitation coming soon!”
Jokes aside, whether J.Lo is simply holding onto security for balance or something more, one thing is certain: she will always have the world’s attention.
