"Batman" star Ben Affleck's friends have come out in his support amid the reports of monkey business between the actor and his former nanny, Christine Ouzounian, while on a reported private jet trip to Las Vegas.
The clarification came after the emergence of a picture, published by New York Post, showing the nanny posing playfully with the QB's four Super Bowl rings while on the plane. The pic was said to be taken on June 27 on the private jet, which reported to be flying earlier from Bahamas to Los Angeles, but reportedly took a detour to Las Vegas, where the duo was said to be joined by Affleck's actor friend Tom Brady.
"Christine flew with Ben from the Bahamas to Vegas because she was helping him with his poker tournament for his charity," Fox News quoted an unidentified friend of the "Gone Girl" actor as saying.
The friend further claimed that there was nothing fishy about the trip and the entourage had other staff members of Affleck who were helping him with the event.
It was also reported that Garner flipped out and fired Ouzounian right away when she came to know about the trip, before announcing her split from her husband of 10 years in a statement given on June 30.
Meanwhile, the nanny-in-question continued to flaunt her apparently newly-acquired extravagant lifestyle. The beauty was spotted driving around Beverly Hills in a brand-new Lexus convertible on Aug. 12, Wednesday. She was sporting a navy blazer with the rolled-up sleeves, fitted white T-shirt, blue skinny jeans, and a pair of white Chucks, with her long blonde tresses freshly blown out as she drove across in the $43,000-priced car and even uploaded a pic on Instagram.
The nanny has reportedly moved in a new Los Angeles home after a long, luxurious stay at Hotel Bel-Air, where she was allegedly spending a questionable amount of money on manicures, pedicures, spa treatments and endless shopping trips.
