Jennifer Lopez Makes Low-Key Exit From Ben Affleck’s Home on His Birthday

Hollywood star Ben Affleck‘s 52nd birthday was marked by a series of low-key visits from the women in his life.

Just hours after his ex-wife Jennifer Garner stopped by, his wife, Jennifer Lopez, was spotted trying to keep a low profile while leaving his house.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have been plagued by rumors of a troubled marriage all summer, with reports suggesting that their divorce papers have been “finalized but not yet turned in.”

The “Jenny From The Block” singer was spotted trying to evade attention as she left Affleck’s House in Brentwood, L.A., on his 52nd birthday.

Affleck notably snubbed Lopez’s 55th birthday celebration, but the singer seemingly put that behind her as she donned a casual look to visit her estranged husband on his special day.

She donned a brown jacket, blue jeans, and trainers as she climbed into a large black vehicle hours after Affleck’s ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, left the premises in her sleek BMW.

The Oscar winner turned 52 on Thursday, but his wife refused to wish him a happy birthday on social media, instead posting a series of snaps amid rumors that they’re heading for a split.

The images were taken during her birthday celebration last month. She had on a stunning see-through dress that flashed her sculpted legs as she stood in front of a car.

According to the Daily Mail, the pair were trying to save their marriage, but unfortunately, they seem to be headed for a divorce with the legal papers “finalized but not yet turned in.”

On Lopez’s 55th birthday, which she celebrated while staying in the Hamptons, Affleck was in Los Angeles finalizing an agreement to purchase his new $20.5 million mansion in Pacific Palisades.

Sources close to Lopez reportedly described the move as a “stab to the heart,” which affected any chance of a reunion.

“They finalized the divorce papers with her a month ago, but are waiting for the right time to drop them,” one source told the news outlet. “At that time, they will release a joint statement that will say how they have much love for each other and how they fought to make it work, but couldn’t.”

Another source said, “Honestly, in the end, they could not come to a compromise. What they had before is gone and they have both accepted it.”

Reports previously claimed Lopez was angry that Affleck continues to delay filing for divorce to “protect” her from more embarrassment.

“She’s furious,” a source told Page Six. “He has humiliated her. He was the one who initiated getting back together.”

The insider noted that Affleck “humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life,” adding, “They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of a record, they’re not young kids.”

The embattled couple, who dated from 2002 to 2004 before rekindling their love story in July 2021, are said to be considering the effect a split will have on their children as they’ve seemingly grown fond of each other.

“There are five kids involved in this,” the source shared. “She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted it is over.”

Affleck shares three children, Violet, 18, Fin, 17, and Samuel, 12, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, while Lopez has 16-year-old twins Emme and Max with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

The couple hoped to have a blended family when they snapped up their huge Beverly Hills “dream home” for $60 million over a year ago. However, that house is not up for sale for the price of $68 million.

Meanwhile, Affleck’s daughter Violet is reportedly trying to prevent her father’s marriage to her famous stepmom from going down the drain.

The 18-year-old is said to be “heartbroken” that Lopez and Affleck’s marriage has soured. She recently wore the “Let’s Get Loud” singer’s 2023 D&G Valentine’s Day date dress with her father as a sign of solidarity.

“Violet does wish her dad Ben would stay with JLo,” an insider told the Daily Mail. “She wasn’t living in their house and did not see the extent of the breakdown, but she got extremely close to JLo over the past couple of years and it broke her heart when they split.”

“She is not going to stop talking to JLo and recently enjoyed time in the Hamptons with her,” the source continued. “Wearing her soon-to-be former stepmom’s Valentine’s Day dress was a bit of a statement – she knew what she was doing. Those close to her thought it was bizarre.”
