Despite the rumor mill buzzing about a possible split, the couple showed up at Sunday’s event together, quietly dodging any PDA. Their joint appearance seems to hint that their marriage is still scoring points, per a recent report.
“It’s a good sign they were at the game together,” an insider allegedly close to Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 54, told People.
The couple were photographed outside the YMCA, smiling and exchanging air kisses as they greeted each other. They were also seen walking side by side, albeit without holding hands.
Despite the notable absence of public displays of affection, the pair seemed to be in high spirits as they were accompanied by Affleck’s mother, Anne Boldt. Ben’s former wife, Jennifer Garner, also attended their son’s sports event.
Earlier in the day, Lopez was spotted browsing a flea market in LA with her 16-year-old child, Emme. Though Jennifer seemed sullen during the outing, she still wore her wedding ring.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Reportedly Live in Seperate Homes
The sightings happened just days after the pop star canceled her summer tour to focus on her personal life. This sudden announcement followed reports indicating that she and Affleck are on the brink of divorce.
On Lopez’s website, onthejlo, a representative from Live Nation said that Lopez’s “THIS IS ME…LIVE” tour, originally scheduled to start in June and visit numerous North American venues through August, has been entirely canceled.
Live Nation stressed that Lopez is “taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.”
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” JLo herself wrote on the website. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”
Lopez continued, “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…”
Lopez and Affleck rekindled their early-2000s romance in 2021 and now share a blended family. In addition to being a stepmother to Affleck’s three children with Garner, Lopez has 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.
Speculation of an impending divorce has arisen after Lopez attended the 2024 Met Gala alone on May 6. Affleck was also notably absent while Lopez did press for her latest film, Atlas, last month. Reportedly, the couple currently live in separate residences.
