Jennifer Lopez recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to promote her new film, “Atlas,” but did not address the speculation surrounding her marriage to Ben Affleck. Lopez did mention Affleck during a story about meeting Barbra Streisand, mentioning the engagement ring he had given her years ago. She wore a simple silver band on her ring finger during the show and walked the red carpet solo at the film’s premiere, leading to rumors about the couple’s status.
Reports began circulating that Lopez and Affleck were experiencing relationship issues, with sources revealing that the couple had hit a rough patch due to Lopez’s increasing work commitments and preparations for her upcoming tour. Despite being focused on work and not having plans to separate, the couple has been on different pages for some time. Affleck has been staying at a place in Los Angeles separate from their usual home, and he moved out of their shared house several weeks ago.
Despite the speculation, Lopez and Affleck have been photographed together recently, attending a school function for one of their children and seen driving in Brentwood, California. Both were wearing their wedding rings, but Affleck was seen without his ring earlier that day. The couple shares a blended family, with Lopez having twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony and Affleck having three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
Lopez and Affleck’s relationship dates back to the early 2000s when they met on the set of “Gigli” and got engaged in 2002. However, they called off their wedding in 2003 and split in 2004. Nearly twenty years later, the couple rekindled their romance in 2021, secretly tying the knot in Las Vegas in 2022. They later had a larger ceremony in Georgia for friends and family, rekindling the interest and excitement surrounding their relationship.
It is clear that there is speculation and uncertainty surrounding the current status of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s relationship. Despite reports of issues in their marriage, the couple has been seen together recently, wearing their wedding rings. With a history of a whirlwind romance, engagement, and break-up, fans are intrigued by the rekindling of their relationship in recent years. Lopez’s focus on work and Affleck’s separate living situation have added to the rumors and gossip about their marriage. Only time will tell what the future holds for this famous couple.
