Ben Affleck Responds to Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Lisa Barlow's Claims: A Closer Look
Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Lisa Barlow recently mentioned Ben Affleck as a reason for missing filming for the reality show, sparking a response from the actor. During an interview with Access Hollywood, Affleck expressed confusion about the situation and clarified that he hadn't been in Utah for several years, casting doubt on Barlow's claims. While he acknowledged the possibility of meeting her at an event, he couldn't recall any specific interaction with her.
Barlow's absence from the first cast trip of RHOSLC season 6 was attributed to her reluctance to spend time with Bronwyn Newport and her busy work schedule. She mentioned having a work commitment and hinted at socializing with high-profile individuals like Ben Affleck and Blake Lively. This isn't the first time Barlow has referenced Affleck, as she previously shared a throwback photo with him on her Instagram Story following news of his divorce from Jennifer Lopez in August 2024.
Despite Barlow's claims, Affleck maintained that he couldn't confirm attending any event with her in Utah and didn't want to speculate on the controversy surrounding her absence from filming. The actor emphasized that he interacts with many people at events and may not remember every encounter, suggesting that he wasn't in a position to provide definitive information on the situation.
