Jennifer Lopez and Matt Damon were photographed holding hands during an intimate conversation at the Toronto International Film Festival amid the actress' ongoing divorce from best friend Ben Affleck.

An eyewitness previously told People magazine that Lopez, 55, and Damon, 53, were chatting for more than 20 minutes at a party at the Ritz-Carlton's Epoch Bar & Kitchen Terrace.

According to the source, they “started talking and had a long, deep conversation.”

The discussion reportedly began after J.Lo sat down at an outdoor table with the Jason Bourne star and his wife, Luciana Damon.

Affleck, 52, did not attend the TIFF premiere.

The event marked Lopez's first red carpet appearance since filing for divorce from Affleck on Aug. 20, the two-year anniversary of their wedding in Georgia.

The “Let's Get Loud” songstress made a statement in an iridescent Tamara Ralph gown that was open at the side and tied with a black velvet bow.

She completed her show-stopping ensemble with metallic platform heels, a Judith Leiber clutch and Hassanzadeh diamonds.

There appears to be no hard feelings between Lopez and Matt, but the “Investigators” actor also publicly voiced his support for Affleck amid his longtime friend's highly publicized split.

Just days after J.Lo filed for divorce, the “Argo” star was spotted having dinner with Matt, Luciana and their daughters at popular Italian restaurant Tuscany in Los Angeles.

The new single father of three arrived at the restaurant alone and was reportedly in good spirits when he walked in with his family.
