Jennifer, known as JLo, was seen rocking a tan see-through, floor-length dress with tan strappy heels and a matching handbag.
She wore her brunette locks in a low ponytail, large hoop earrings, and her stunning diamond ring on her left ring finger.
The Jenny From the Block singer arrived for dinner at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California, though Ben was nowhere in sight.
Other photos captured the actor in the same area as his wife but picking up his 12-year-old son Samuel at basketball practice.
The Good Will Hunting star was with his middle child, 15-year-old Seraphina.
KEEPING IT COOL
Ben didn’t show much expression in the snaps, which showed him getting out of his car and walking toward the gymnasium.
He dressed casually in jeans, a blue t-shirt, a blue plaid button-down, and his gold wedding band on display.
The Hollywood couple has been widely in the media lately as rumors have raged they’re having marital issues.
Ben and Jennifer tied the knot in July 2022 after rekindling their romance from 20 years earlier.
Clues have been mounting in recent weeks that the famous pair are calling it quits.
For one, Jennifer canceled her This Is Me Tour on May 31, raising suspicions that her supposed marriage troubles are the reason.
A source claimed to Page Six that the cancellation was because it came at a sensitive time in the singer’s personal life.
Jennifer didn’t offer an explanation in her announcement to fans that her tour was no longer happening.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” Jennifer posted to her website.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck relationship timeline
JLo and Ben were first linked together in 2002 and became engaged later that year. However, they called off the wedding just two years later. They rekindled their romance in 2021 and finally got hitched in 2022. Here is a timeline of their love story:
June 2002 – Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli and JLo divorced from her second husband Cris Judd
November 2002 – Ben proposed to JLo with a six-carat pink diamond ring
September 2003 – JLo and Ben called off their wedding and blamed it on ‘excessive media attention’
January 2004 – The celebrity couple announce they are heading separate ways
July 2021 – JLo posts an intimate photo of herself beside Ben and they begin dating again
April 2022 – Ben proposes to JLo for a second time
July 2022 – The celebrity couple officially celebrated their nuptials in a Las Vegas, Nevada, ceremony
August 2022 – Ben and JLo have a second A-list wedding at their $8.9million George estate
“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”
“I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time…” the I’m Real singer added.
Live Nation reps then shared that Jennifer pulled the plug on the tour – which was supposed to kick off in Orlando, Florida, on June 26 – to spend time with her children, family, and friends.
Jennifer is a mom to twins Max and Emme, 16, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, 55, and a stepmother to Ben’s kids, with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 52.
THEY’RE OVER?
It was previously speculated that the cancellation was because of poor ticket sales, but sources insisted that wasn’t the case.
Despite this, Ben and Jennifer have noticeably appeared tense in recent sightings and several sources have said their divorce is only a matter of time.
Some claimed that Ben and Jennifer couldn’t move past their differences, given the Gone Girl actor prefers to stay out of the limelight, while his wife welcomes the attention.
It was also reported that Ben moved out of their shared $47 million Los Angeles mansion and they are looking to sell the lavish property.
