Ben Affleck Spotted Filming as Jennifer Lopez Attends Premiere Solo Amid Divorce Rumors
Jennifer Lopez made a solo appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of her new film “Atlas” on Monday night, sparking rumors of trouble in her marriage to Ben Affleck. The singer, 54, walked the red carpet alone, raising eyebrows among fans. However, Affleck, 51, was busy filming his movie “The Accountant 2” that afternoon, which could explain his absence. It remains unclear whether he was wearing his wedding band, as he has been seen without it in recent days.
Despite the speculation surrounding their relationship, Lopez stunned on the red carpet in a black-and-white two-piece set by Greta Constantine. While she left her green diamond engagement ring at home for the evening, she wore a silver wedding band instead. The “Marry Me” actress accessorized with a stunning 165-carat diamond-and-emerald necklace by Indian designer Manish Malhotra, along with matching drop earrings.
The couple, who tied the knot in July 2022, first sparked rumors of a split in May when Lopez attended the Met Gala alone, despite being one of the co-chairs of the event. Sources later revealed that Affleck couldn’t attend due to his busy filming schedule for an action movie. Reports also emerged that the couple was living separately, with Affleck staying in a house close to their Beverly Hills mansion.
Insiders in Hollywood claim that Affleck has realized the incompatibility of their relationship and has “come to his senses” about Lopez’s whirlwind romance. An insider revealed, “He feels like the last two years were just a fever dream, and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.” While neither Affleck nor Lopez have publicly addressed the state of their marriage, Lopez recently “liked” a post on social media about relationship red flags.
This isn’t the first time the couple has faced relationship challenges. They were engaged in the early 2000s but called off their engagement in 2004. After pursuing other relationships, they rekindled their romance in April 2021 and got married just over a year later. Only time will tell if their current situation leads to a permanent split.
