Ben Affleck is focusing on work amid his purported marital woes with wife Jennifer Lopez.
The actor and director, 51, known for his role in Air, has been at the center of media attention due to his relationship struggles with his wife, Jennifer Lopez, 54. Recently, he was spotted in Southern California keeping it casual in a T-shirt and jeans as he made his way to his office in Beverly Hills.
Ben Affleck, a two-time Oscar winner and father to three kids – Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, from his previous marriage to Jennifer Garner, 52 – was wearing a gray T-shirt bearing the emblem of Speed Motors Unlimited. This T-shirt was also seen on him during a recent dinner outing with his kids.
Affleck rounded out his ensemble with dark blue jeans and Nike sneakers as he was pictured walking through a parking structure and office area.
He had a beverage in one hand and what appeared to be credentials in the other as he made his way through the structure.
Amid speculations about his marriage with Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck, 51, is seen focusing on work as he heads to his office in Beverly Hills, California.
Lopez – who is mother to twins Emme and Maximilian, 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, 55 – remains on the other side of the country, as she was seen celebrating July 4 weekend in the Hamptons in New York.
On Saturday, she was seen riding a Linus bicycle alongside her friend/vocal coach Stevie Mackey, who took to social media to share a snap of the outing.
Mackey, 42, captioned the image, ‘Good times, good friends, good wheels.’
Lopez on Sunday took to Instagram to acknowledge the three-year anniversary of the release of her song Cambia el Paso, a collaboration with Rauw Alejandro.
‘Happy Anniversary Cambia El Paso …’ she wrote with a clip of the video, also including behind-the-scenes clips of the making of the music video that accompanied the single.
The marriage between Affleck and Lopez ‘has allegedly been over for months,’ sources told Page Six on July 1 amid ongoing speculation about the relationship.
Insiders told the outlet that the couple have ‘been apart since March,’ and that Affleck remains ‘very protective of Jennifer’ amid the tumultuous time.
Amid the issues, a source told DailyMail.com that Affleck’s ex-wife Garner had to step back from an informal mediator role between Affleck and Lopez amid the parting, as she ‘eventually got to a place where she was like, “Sorry, figure this out yourself.”‘
The source added: ‘It was beginning to become too painful for her because it was bringing back so many memories of their divorce.’
It’s been nearly two years since Affleck and Lopez, who first dated decades back, exchanged vows at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022.
‘In the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined,’ Lopez said in her newsletter On the JLo on July 17, 2022. ‘One we dreamed of long ago and one made very real (in the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible and one another) at very, very, long last.’
The couple again exchanged vows at Affleck’s estate outside of Savannah, Georgia on August 20, 2022.
