Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's divorce rumours have been making headlines for a long time. Amid the speculations, the couple reunited for Ben’s daughter Violet's graduation party. Although their usual PDA was missing, they walked side by side, showing solidarity despite the tension.
A clean-shaven Ben Affleck and the ever-stylish Jennifer Lopez were spotted arriving with a handful of surprises in photos. The ‘Gigli’ co-stars weren't holding hands as they walked. Affleck carried a giant box, seemingly a gift hamper, while the ‘Atlas’ star had her hands in her dress pockets, walking in pointed heels. However, JLo stayed by his side as they arrived at the Los Angeles location.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were spotted alongside Affleck’s mom, Anne Boldt, who walked behind them as the couple showcased high-end fashion.
Ben wore a grey pantsuit with a crisp white shirt and black shoes. He appeared annoyed, as he often does when captured on camera lately. Meanwhile, JLo looked stunning in a floral dress, chic sunglasses, and her hair down, exuding beauty and glamour.
While some might dismiss it as a random snapshot, fans think otherwise.
‘Clearly a ‘dress to impress’ moment,’ a social media user commented. ‘They look awkward..hope things will get better,’ wrote another.
Their public outing comes amid reports that Ben and Jen are taking time apart from each other to work on their marital issues.
A source earlier told ET, ‘Jen and Ben are continuing to take space from each other. They've been having issues for a few months and trying to figure things out on their own.’
Lopez is under mounting pressure due to her waning career and the spotlight, particularly after her much-anticipated comeback with This Is Me... flopped, jeopardizing her million-dollar LA residency. The source added, ‘Jen has been struggling to cope with the overall stress of life and her career. She has been experiencing highs and lows while processing everything. Work has been a refuge for her, keeping her occupied and distracted.’
