JENNIFER Lopez and her husband have made a rare appearance together. The married couple was spotted at a family event in Los Angeles on Thursday.
Rare Appearance of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez
In photos of the duo, Ben, 51, and Jennifer, 54, headed to the house of his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 52. Ben and film star Jennifer were married from 2005 to 2018, during which they welcomed three children. Ben and JLo joined his ex to celebrate his oldest child, Violet, 18, for her high school graduation. The couple was also joined by Ben’s mom, Christine Anne, as they headed into the party.
Attending Violet’s Graduation Party
Despite the milestone moment for Violet, Ben and Jen didn’t seem in a partying mood. JLo kept her head down as she walked to the party, with her hair covering her face and her eyes hidden behind sunglasses. The pop music star looked stunning in a plunging floral dress and clear heels, but didn’t flash a smile as she walked beside her husband. Ben looked equally serious, frowning slightly as he carried a gift basket into the house. The photos come as the first sighting of Ben and JLo together in over a week, as many insiders claim they’re close to getting a divorce.
Relationship Struggles and Tensions
Ben and JLo’s somber outing came after a source claimed that the couple’s relationship is coming to an end. “If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, [Ben] would. He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work,” the source shared. Other sources have agreed with the sentiment, claiming that Ben and JLo are just too different to work things out.
Impact of Jennifer Lopez’s Documentary
Tensions seem to have come to a head when Jennifer filmed her documentary, “The Greatest Love Story Never Told,” which took fans into her private life with Ben. “Things that are private, I’d always felt are sacred and special. So this was something of an adjustment for me,” Ben said of his appearance in the Prime Video doc.
Moving Out
The stress of JLo’s documentary and tour has also had another major consequence for their relationship. Ben moved out of the $47 million mansion he shares with his wife in Los Angeles “several weeks ago,” one celebrity insider claimed. “They started having issues a few months ago as Jen had started ramping up work commitments and prepping for her tour,” the source divulged. Another pal of the couple said that they barely saw each other, and that a divorce was inevitable. “It’s over; they’re headed for a divorce and for once [Ben’s] not to blame. He’s focusing on his work and kids now.
Final Thoughts
“They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her. There’s no way it could have lasted,” the source told InTouch. The couple has reportedly had relationship issues for several months, and Ben wanted to focus on his kids shared with ex-wife Jennifer Garner. JLo’s documentary and tour are said to have driven a wedge between her and Ben.
