Jennifer Lopez was spotted in Los Angeles on Sunday, beaming from ear to ear during a solo outing. This sighting comes just one day after she and her estranged husband, Ben Affleck, were seen in what appeared to be a highly charged and emotional reunion outside a hotel. While the couple looked tense, new reports suggest that the situation inside the hotel was quite different.
According to insiders, what started as a seemingly awkward and strained meeting outside the hotel turned into something much more intimate once they were out of public view. Sources told Page Six that the pair, who are currently in the midst of a very public divorce, were seen holding hands and kissing during brunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel’s Polo Lounge. Their children were reportedly also present, though seated at a separate table.
For a couple navigating a contentious split, this unexpected display of affection has left many confused. Are they really over, or is there still something left between them? And if they’re still so close, why the messy public divorce in the first place?
Despite the tension with Affleck, J-Lo appeared to be in high spirits the very next day. She stepped out wearing a backless white linen dress, looking carefree and relaxed as she visited a friend’s house in Los Angeles. Sporting a messy updo, oversized sunglasses, and minimal makeup, the singer looked as though she didn’t have a care in the world.
The Jenny From The Block singer has reportedly spent months trying to salvage her marriage, but sources close to her say she ultimately couldn’t ignore the darker aspects of Affleck’s personality. According to a Page Six report, Lopez believed that her love could change him, but in the end, the same issues that plagued Affleck’s previous relationships reemerged.
“Ben has a darkness to him that no other person can fix,” an insider said. “Jennifer Garner couldn’t fix it, and neither can Jennifer Lopez. She loves him, but that’s part of the problem. She’s always believed in the idea of a fairy tale, but in this case, she didn’t consider who the actual man was in that story.”
Sources claim J.Lo was hopeful that Affleck would attend her 55th birthday party in the Hamptons earlier this year, but he was a no-show. That was reportedly the final blow, leading Lopez to file for divorce just two years after their highly publicized wedding in 2022.
While Lopez is making public appearances with a bright smile on her face, it’s clear that behind the scenes, the Bennifer issue is far from resolved. For fans hoping for a happily ever after, it appears that this love story is closing its final chapter.
