No sleep for the groom.
Ben Affleck looked exhausted while on his way out of Georgia following his splashy nuptials to Jennifer Lopez over the weekend.
The “Batman” actor, 50, was photographed reclining in the backseat of an SUV with his eyes half-closed while accompanied by three more people as they made their way to the airport.
However, his sleepy state didn’t last long after he met up with longtime pal Matt Damon and his family at the airport.
After Damon and his family boarded one plane, Affleck helped his three kids — whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10 — board a second one.
The newlywed then finally hopped into a third private plane with his bride, 53, a couple of hours later.
This is not the first time that Affleck has been caught snoozing off by the paps.
Last month, he was photographed snoozing while on a tourist cruise of the Seine River in Paris. The “Gone Girl” star was in the City of Lights with Lopez after their first wedding in Las Vegas.
Affleck’s most recent snooze comes right after he and Lopez celebrated their second wedding with a three-day party, which kicked off with a rehearsal dinner on Friday.
On Saturday, the “Hustlers” star and Affleck said “I do” — again — at the groom’s estate in Riceboro, Ga. The next day, the couple brought their friends and family together one last time for a post-wedding brunch.
Lopez and Affleck were surrounded by plenty of celebs, including Damon, Jimmy Kimmel, talent agent Patrick Whitesell, Australian model Pia Miller and “Jay and Silent Bob” stars Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes. Notably absent from the celebrations were Affleck’s brother, Casey, who was sending his oldest son off to college and Garner, who had a prior work commitment.
Despite the stunning all-white affair, the weekend was also plagued with multiple hospital visits. On Friday, Affleck’s mom required medical attention after falling off a dock and, the next day, an unidentified guest was rushed out of the venue in an ambulance.
The couple’s fairytale wedding comes 20 years after they were first in a relationship.
Back in 2002, Affleck and Lopez quickly got engaged after meeting a year prior on the set of “Gigli.” However, after intense media attention surrounding their nuptials, the couple was forced to postpone the ceremony. Two years after their initial engagement, they ended their relationship.
The singer later confessed that the breakup was her “first big heartbreak.” She went on to marry singer Marc Anthony with whom she shares twins, Max and Emme, while Affleck married Garner.
“Bennifer” made a comeback in April 2021 after the former couple was spotted hanging out following Lopez ending her engagement to Alex Rodriguez. Things progressed quickly with the lovebirds and months later, they made their love Instagram-official.
A year after getting back together, the couple confirmed their engagement and made it legal in a surprise Vegas ceremony last month.
