Matt Damon emphasized the media attention regarding Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's rekindled relationship and how different it is from the first time the two were an item.
"I have to say, the press was particularly terrible to them, like, 18 years ago," Damon said on an episode of "Desus & Mero" earlier this week.
"What's nice is that at least they're being nice this time around," he added, according to Entertainment Tonight. "They're on vacation right now, but he still responded when I hit him up about the Red Sox yesterday…You still have priorities!"
Affleck, himself, recently opened up about the media's treatment of Bennifer, especially Lopez, the first time they dated.

"Now it's like, she's lionized and respected for the work she did, where she came from, what she accomplished -- as well she f--king should be!"
