I deleted Twitter years ago,” Ana de Armas said in the interview. “I’ve barely been on Instagram for almost a year.”
Change of residence and a new life
She even confessed that she had to flee Los Angeles, in order to get over this breakup with Ben Affleck and the East Coast was her destination.
De Armas told ELLE US that she had seen how the public scrutinized other artists’ lives, but when it happened to her, she realized she had to leave California. “Going through that [myself] confirmed my thoughts about, ‘This is not the place for me.’ It became a little too much. There was no escape. There was no way out.”
That decision was vitally important to the actress, as today, she is a happy resident of New York City, even maintaining a dating relationship with Paul Boukadakis, the vice president of Tinder, whom she met during the pandemic.
Meanwhile, Affleck is reportedly married to Jennifer Lopez, whom he first dated (and was also engaged to) in the early 2000s.
