'Brad Pitt of Cuba' denies affair being behind Jennifer Lopez's split

London, July 19 : A male model, who was seen in Jennifer Lopez’s new video ‘I’m Into You’, has denied claims of having an affair with the pop star.

Known as the ‘Brad Pitt of Cuba’, William Levy made a shirtless appearance in the pop star’s video, which was filmed in Mexico in April.

Lopez, 41, was shown cosying up to him in sensual beach scenes filmed at Turtle Beach in the same video.

But now, the 30-year-old has dismissed reports that he has been dating the star, who announced her separation for Marc Anthony last Friday. 

“The only relationship there was or is, is a professional relationship. That’s all there’s ever been,” the Daily Mail quoted a spokesperson for Levy as telling TMZ.

Levy reportedly separated from his wife of eight years, Elizabeth Gutierrez, a month after the shoot.
