Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez recently got together for a family event despite rumors of their impending divorce. The couple, who had not been seen together for a while, were on their way to celebrate Affleck’s daughter Violet’s graduation. Both Affleck and Lopez seemed serious as they arrived at the event, not showing any signs of happiness. They left the party together in Affleck’s BMW, but Lopez was later seen leaving the rental home where Affleck has been staying on her own. This reunion happened around two weeks after their last public appearance together at a movie event with Affleck’s ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, on May 19th.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez came together after a two-week break to attend a family event on Thursday, amidst swirling rumors about their divorce.
The troubled couple, who have not been seen together in two weeks, were heading to another celebration for Affleck’s daughter Violet’s graduation. As they arrived at the party with Affleck’s mother Christopher Anne ‘Chris’ Boldt, they seemed distant and melancholy amidst rumors of marital problems.
Lopez, wearing oversized sunglasses, walked quietly beside Affleck, who carried a gift basket overflowing with pink tissue paper for Violet. Both of them made sure to keep their left hands hidden, especially after Affleck was previously seen without his wedding ring.
However, last weekend, Affleck was photographed wearing his wedding ring during a solo outing. Lopez, wearing a floral tea dress and clear nylon heels, kept her hands in her pockets as they walked to the party. Affleck, looking dapper in a dark gray blazer and matching trousers, complemented his wife’s elegant outfit.
Affleck and Lopez were both looking serious as they were spotted together, walking from their vehicle to a home in Los Angeles. Their expressions were unreadable as they made their way inside.
Upon their entrance to the event alongside Batman actor Ben Affleck’s mother, Christopher Anne ‘Chris’ Boldt, the couple displayed a sense of sadness rather than marital happiness, fueling rumors of trouble in their relationship. Jennifer Lopez, known for hits like Let’s Get Loud, wore large sunglasses and seemed to be avoiding eye contact as she walked next to Affleck.
The couple facing challenges were accompanied by his mother, who sported an animal print blazer paired with all black attire. Later, they were spotted leaving their daughter Violet’s graduation party with Affleck’s mother in tow.
While exiting, he graciously opened the car door for his mother, while his wife patiently waited for him to unlock her door amidst passing vehicles. The trio then departed in his BMW to their temporary rental in Brentwood.
Shortly after, Lopez left the residence alone in her Escalade, suggesting she chose not to spend more time with Affleck and his mother as she had a busy schedule to attend to.
Their reunion on Thursday marked their first meeting in almost two weeks, following a joint movie event with Garner and their children a couple of weeks earlier. The couple had put on a cold demeanor at his child Fin’s school recital just days before.
This recent sighting came after a seven-week gap, as they hadn’t been seen together since late March in New York City.
The actor from Daredevil was seen lugging around a big wicker basket that seemed to be filled with presents for Violet, overflowing with pink tissue paper. They made sure to conceal their left hands and ring fingers, especially after Affleck was seen without his wedding band multiple times in the last month.
While making their way to the party on Thursday, Lopez strolled beside her companion with her hands tucked in the pockets of her stylish floral tea dress.
She appeared absolutely gorgeous as she confidently walked in clear nylon heels, sporting a charming gold heart pendant necklace and holding a chic structured crossbody bag.
Affleck looked quite dapper in his dark gray blazer and matching trousers, complementing his wife who was dressed elegantly. He paired the outfit with a crisp white button-down shirt, adding a touch of sophistication to his ensemble.
The couple going through a rough patch were joined by his mother, who rocked an animal print blazer with an all-black outfit. Lately, they haven’t been spotted together or seen out in public much, sparking rumors of a split. Lopez flew solo at the Met Gala in New York, leaving fans surprised by Affleck’s absence. Reports have surfaced suggesting that the relationship just wasn’t working out, leading to an impending breakup after less than two years of marriage. Rumors also circulated that the couple had been living separately for some time now. Despite purchasing a $60.85 million mansion together just a year ago, Affleck has moved out, while Lopez was recently spotted house hunting alone in Beverly Hills.
Later on, the pair was spotted exiting Violet’s graduation celebration together, accompanied by Affleck’s mom.
He seemed to be helping his mother with the car door, while his wife waited on the opposite side.
She appeared to be patiently anticipating him to open her car door, while other cars passed by.
After the event, Affleck, along with two others, departed in his BMW.
Affleck drove over to the Brentwood vacation home he’s been staying at, with his mother and wife in tow.
Not long after, Lopez was spotted exiting the residence solo.
She was being chauffeured in her lavish Escalade by her assistant.
Lopez seemed to have decided against spending additional time with Affleck and his mom as she left to carry on with her hectic routine.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Affleck had left their shared home and moved into a $100,000-per-month property in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles. Over the last couple of weeks, he was noticeably absent during his wife’s press tour for her new Netflix sci-fi action film Atlas and also missed out on accompanying her to the movie premiere in Mexico City. Another event they chose not to attend together was Memorial Day, with Lopez spending the holiday alone. On the same day, Affleck was spotted attending their daughter Violet’s graduation celebration without his wife by his side, looking somber as he arrived solo at the party.
