Jennifer Lopez is fully immersed in her work and fitness routine, amid ongoing rumors suggesting trouble in paradise with her husband Ben Affleck. Recently, the 54-year-old singer was seen leaving a dance studio in Los Angeles following an intense rehearsal session ahead of her upcoming tour in June. Flaunting her toned abs in a vibrant yellow crop top, she headed towards her parked SUV.
On the other hand, Ben Affleck, 51, seemed to be enjoying a more relaxed day by smoking a cigarette in his car before ordering pizza to his lavish $100k-per-month rental mansion in Brentwood. He has been residing at this property, just a stone’s throw away from his ex Jennifer Garner, while filming his latest project, The Accountant 2, amidst rumors of a split with JLo.
Reports suggest that the alleged tension between Affleck and Lopez arises from their differing opinions regarding public attention, particularly after she divulged personal details about their relationship in her recently released Prime Video documentary in April.
Jennifer Lopez is fully dedicated to her work and fitness regimen, amid ongoing speculation about the state of her relationship with Ben Affleck.
On Thursday, the 54-year-old singer was seen exiting a dance studio in Los Angeles after yet another intense rehearsal session. This is all in preparation for her upcoming tour that is set to start in June.
Meanwhile, Affleck was seen enjoying himself on Thursday, happily smoking a cigarette outside his luxurious Brentwood rental mansion, which costs a whopping $100,000 per month.
He was spotted picking up pizzas that were brought to his single guy’s apartment.
During the rehearsals on Thursday, Lopez paired her crop top with a vibrant neon green bra and loose-fitting black pants. Her hair, a lovely honey tone, seemed recently styled, and she carried a luxurious Hermes Birkin bag. Sporting her favorite Y2K-style sunglasses and big gold hoops, she showed off a fresh pink pearlescent manicure. Lopez proudly wore the wedding band gifted to her by Affleck when they got married in July 2022.
Accompanied by her long-time manager Benny Medina, Lopez could be seen chatting with him as they entered and exited the dance studio. Even when she wasn’t engaged in conversation, Lopez had her phone pressed to her ear, likely handling various matters. Meanwhile, Affleck was spotted on the set of The Accountant 2, appearing ring-less in the photos.
On the same day, Lopez shared a bold message on Instagram with her vast following of 252 million people. She reposted a picture of a billboard on Sweetzer Avenue, LA, that read: ‘Don’t F With JLo.’ This billboard is part of the promotion for her upcoming Netflix film Atlas, which is set to premiere on Friday.

Lopez was accompanied by her group of followers.
She paired her beloved Y2K-style sunglasses with oversized gold hoop earrings and a new, chic pink pearlescent nail polish.
Later in the day on Thursday, Affleck was seen filming the sequel to his movie The Accountant in Los Angeles.
He chose not to wear his wedding band. As Lopez promotes Atlas, there have been rumors circulating about the state of her marriage to Affleck. Lopez and Netflix have made it clear to journalists that questions about Affleck are not allowed at Atlas events. Only group interviews with her co-stars Simu Liu and Sterling K. Brown are permitted. At the Los Angeles and Mexico City premieres, this strategy was successful. However, during a press conference in Mexico, a reporter ignored the request and asked Lopez directly about the rumored split. Lopez, still wearing her wedding ring, jokingly scolded the reporter for the personal question. A video of a reporter asking Lopez to confirm the rumors of her and Affleck living separately has gone viral, but Lopez did not deny the rumors about her marriage.
The singer known for her chart-topping song “On The Floor” had hair with a luscious honey tone that appeared to be recently styled and blown out.
She was sporting an elegant Hermes Birkin handbag while moving in and out of the studio.
She strolled across the parking lot wearing a pair of fresh white sneakers.
She remained unruffled by the circulating rumors about her relationship.
She had on just a hint of makeup before tackling the intense workout.
With the backing of her trusted manager, Benny Medina, she felt confident in pursuing her goals.
Medina stuck by Lopez’s side as they weaved their way through the parking lot, receiving applause from the audience for her handling of the situation. One of the panelists, her co-star Simu, cautioned reporters to avoid certain questions, telling them not to bring that kind of energy into the room. The Canadian actor stood up for J-Lo, highlighting her role as a producer on the film and praising her dedication to issues like representation and diversity.
While Lopez was in Mexico promoting her new movie, Affleck seemed carefree in Los Angeles, spending time with his 12-year-old son Samuel. Despite recent speculation about his marital status, he was seen walking with his son, displaying a rare smile. Affleck also has two other children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, with whom he was married from 2005 to 2018.
During the same day, Affleck was spotted driving his matte gray BMW and smoking a cigarette as he arrived at his rental home. He has been staying in the luxurious mansion while filming his latest project, “The Accountant 2,” which is conveniently located just two blocks away from Garner. Sources suggest that Garner is making efforts to support Affleck in his relationship with Lopez, who has reportedly been seeking guidance from Garner as they navigate challenges in their relationship.
Lopez, who has been married three times, is rumored to be leaning on Garner and others for support as she fears Affleck may be struggling with his sobriety. Her first marriage to Cuban actor Ojani Noa ended after only 11 months in 1997.
Jennifer was on the phone constantly, it was like an extension of her hand.
During her recent promotional appearances for Atlas, Lopez has apparently put a stop to any questions about Affleck, as rumors continue to swirl about the state of their marriage.
The famous singer known for her hit song Jenny from the Block has joined forces with Netflix to ban questions about the Argo director at Atlas events, according to TMZ.
As reported by the publication, it was also mentioned to the media that Lopez would be open to participating in group interviews alongside her fellow co-stars Simu Liu and Sterling K. Brown.
The plan proved successful during the premieres in Los Angeles and Mexico City earlier this week. However, things took a turn during a press conference in Mexico when a reporter directly asked the singer about the rumors of a split.
She married choreographer Cris Judd in 2001, but their marriage ended in 2003. Lopez later had twins, Max and Emme, during her marriage to Latin musician Marc Anthony. The couple got married in 2004 after Lopez’s initial split with Affleck that same year. Anthony and Lopez eventually separated in 2011, finalizing their divorce in 2014.
Lopez traveled to Mexico as part of the promotional tour for Netflix’s Atlas, which is set to be released in theaters on May 24th. Despite the press conference drama, the mother-of-two remained poised amidst speculations about her relationship with Affleck.
She made a stylish statement in a sheer jumpsuit, flaunting her figure after mentioning that she is currently at her thinnest. Recently, reports surfaced that Affleck is pushing for a divorce, referring to their marriage as a ‘fever dream’. However, other sources claim the couple is committed to their relationship, calling it a ‘great love story’.
Although Affleck’s current living situation can comfortably accommodate multiple families, it marks a downgrade from the massive mansion he purchased with Lopez last year for a staggering $60.85 million.
Lopez, with her wedding ring still on, appeared a bit uneasy as she attempted to brush off the question with a forced chuckle. She jokingly scolded the man, “You should know better than that.”
The singer and actress did not try to ignore the speculations that her fourth marriage might be facing difficulties, as witnessed in January.
Later that day, the mom of two posted a cheeky message on Instagram for her 252 million followers. She shared a picture of a billboard on Sweetzer Avenue in LA that had a simple message: “Don’t Mess With JLo.”
The billboard is part of the promotional campaign for her upcoming Netflix movie, Atlas, set to premiere this Friday.
Fans became suspicious about the state of Affleck and Lopez’s relationship when they didn’t appear together in public for nearly two months. This absence was reportedly due to Lopez’s busy schedule and Affleck’s filming commitments for The Accountant sequel.
They were seen together last week at a school performance featuring Affleck’s child, Fin. Despite arriving with smiles, there were moments where they seemed distant from each other.
Ben has been seen without his wedding ring recently, while both he and J.Lo wore their rings when spotted together.
Ben and J.Lo tied the knot in 2022, following a rekindling of their romance after Lopez’s split from Alex Rodriguez. They were previously together from 2002 to 2004, which included an engagement, but they called off the wedding and went their separate ways back then.
