Emma says that Affleck texted her a few times but she refused to go out with him. She said, “He may or may not have asked to grab coffee a few times.”

Upon hearing this, Stause comments how Hernon could have spoiled “Bennifer.” To which Emma replied jokingly, “maybe that wouldn’t have happened. We have the Boston connection. So, that was his opening pick-up line.”

Emma called Ben’s pickup line “very sweet.” 

While Selling Sunset co-stars readily believed Hernon’s claims, Affleck says otherwise.
