Jennifer Lopez decided to spend Memorial Day away from her estranged partner, Ben Affleck, amidst reports that they have not been living together for some time. The 54-year-old star was spotted visiting a friend’s house in Beverly Hills on Monday, dressed in a vibrant tie-dye Gucci crop top and loose white pants. She added a touch of coolness to her look with gold sunglasses, hoop earrings, and her hair styled in a sleek high ponytail. Despite the rumors, she still wore her unique green diamond engagement ring on her finger as she entered her friend’s home with a Louis Vuitton bag and iPad in hand. These recent events coincide with speculation that Affleck may be considering ending their marriage of nearly two years.
Jennifer Lopez decided to spend Memorial Day separately from her estranged spouse, Ben Affleck, amidst reports that they have been living apart for a while now. According to a source quoted by Page Six, if there was a way to divorce due to temporary insanity, Ben would consider it. He has allegedly realized that the past two years seemed like a blur and has finally come to his senses that their relationship is not sustainable.
It is rumored that Ben has already moved out, and they may need to sell the beloved house they spent so long searching for. Despite their mutual love, they cannot control or change each other, which led to the inevitable breakup.
While Jennifer remains at their lavish mansion in Bel Air, Ben is reportedly living in a rental home nearby, close to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s house. Together, Ben and Jennifer Garner share three kids, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. The former couple was married from 2005 to 2018.
Despite their marriage troubles, Ben and Jennifer recently reunited publicly after 47 days at their son Fin’s school play. Sources say that their main priority is co-parenting their kids and supporting them in every way possible. Jennifer was seen with her daughter Emme, showing support for Fin, who has a close bond with Emme. Despite their personal struggles, they are putting on a united front for the sake of their children.
The famous 54-year-old celebrity was spotted on Monday arriving at a friend’s house in Beverly Hills, alone and looking stylish in a vibrant tie-dye Gucci crop top paired with loose white trousers.
She finished off her chic look with some stylish gold sunglasses, hoop earrings, and her light brown hair tied back in a sleek high ponytail.
With her unique green diamond engagement ring sparkling on her finger, she made her way to her friend’s house carrying a stylish Louis Vuitton bag and an iPad. According to an insider, Jennifer Lopez’s daughter Emme was thrilled and full of joy after watching Ben Affleck’s performance. On the other hand, Affleck attended his daughter Violet’s graduation party alone over the weekend.
Reports suggest that Lopez’s Las Vegas residency deal worth $90 million is at risk due to the poor sales of her upcoming tour, This Is Me… Live. Initially, there were talks of her performing a 90-show residency at The Park MGM Theater, with a whopping $1 million per show. However, sources now claim that the deal is uncertain as casino executives are worried about her recent album and tour not doing well.
According to sources, MGM is closely monitoring Lopez’s tour performance and is hesitant to proceed with the Vegas residency. It is possible that she may only be offered $600,000-$500,000 per show now, with fewer concerts than the initial 90 planned shows.
Lopez, whose trainer confirmed she exercises regularly four to five times a week, flaunted her impressively sculpted body in a revealing crop top.
Her most recent appearance comes amidst reports that Affleck is considering ending their almost two-year marriage.
According to Page Six, a source revealed that if it were possible to end the marriage due to temporary insanity, he would have done so. They mentioned that he views the past two years as a surreal experience and has now realized that the relationship is not sustainable.
According to a source who spoke with In Touch, Ben has already moved out, and it looks like they may have to sell the beautiful dream home they spent two years hunting for.
According to one source, their love for each other will never fade, but they both have their own ways and cannot change each other. It was inevitable that their relationship wouldn’t last. Another source mentioned that talks are still ongoing between Jennifer and MGM for a potential deal, but nothing has been finalized yet. DailyMail.com has reached out to Jennifer’s spokesperson and MGM for comments. The Mirror was the first to report about J.Lo preparing for a new Las Vegas residency, following the success of her previous All I Have show. Discussions are in progress with MGM for a potential new show at the Park Theater, with hopes of an announcement later this year.
While Lopez enjoys her time at their lavish $60 million Bel Air estate, Affleck is reportedly residing in a rental home costing $100,000 per month, conveniently located just a quick drive away from his ex Garner’s residence in Brentwood.
Lopez’s romantic issues are happening at the same time as her Las Vegas residency deal worth $90 million is at risk due to low ticket sales for her upcoming This Is Me… Live tour.
Despite being considered for a 90-show residency at The Park MGM Theater in Las Vegas with a rumored offer of $1 million per concert, there are doubts about the deal’s certainty according to an insider source. The prospect of having one of the biggest stars back in the city would be a notable achievement for The Park. However, Jennifer faced setbacks as it was revealed that she canceled shows in seven cities on her upcoming tour set to begin in late June. The canceled dates include shows between August 22 and August 30 in Nashville, New Orleans, Raleigh, Atlanta, Houston, Cleveland, and Tampa. No reasons have been given for these cancelations by the singer or her team. In a surprising turn of events, the tour was rebranded from This Is Me… Now: The Tour to This Is Me… Live, focusing more on her greatest hits rather than the music from her latest album. This change is expected to attract fans of her previous work and appeal to a wider audience.
Jennifer faced setbacks when she had to cancel shows in seven cities as part of her upcoming tour, scheduled to start in late June in 2023. The decision was influenced by the successful tours of her competitors like Taylor Swift and Madonna in recent years.
Inspired by the achievements of artists like Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour and Madonna’s Celebration tour, Jennifer aims to take her fans on a journey through her own life with her upcoming tour. While her previous project ‘This Is Me… Now’ was a healing experience, Jennifer is now focused on reconnecting with her roots and showing her fans that she is still the same person they know and love.
Despite facing challenges in selling tickets, Jennifer’s team remains determined to push forward with the tour. Organizers suggested cancelling the tour due to poor ticket sales, but Jennifer and her manager Benny Medina are dedicated to delivering a memorable experience for her fans.
In early April, it was disclosed that Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming tour, her first in half a decade, has been rebranded as This Is Me… Live. The focus will now be more on her greatest hits rather than the music from her latest album, which she performed at the Super Bowl LIV Halftime Show in 2020.
According to sources, Live Nation is concerned about the slow ticket sales for the tour and worries about potential embarrassment due to empty seats in the stadiums where Jennifer will perform. However, Jennifer’s pride prevents her from canceling the tour, so it seems it will proceed as planned.
One source mentioned that the lack of interest in the tour could stem from Jennifer being “overexposed” in recent months. From her marriage to her lengthy honeymoon, a movie, album release, and even a documentary about her love story with Ben, it seems like there may be too much Jennifer Lopez overload for some fans.
Jennifer’s album This Is Me… Now was released in February along with a musical film and a documentary, both centered around the same themes. Despite the efforts, the album did not chart on the Billboard top 20, debuting at number 38. The documentary was financed by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon’s company Artists Equity, while Jennifer funded her self-titled film for $20 million.
