A recent appearance by Jennifer Lopez on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” has sparked more speculation about her marriage to Ben Affleck. During the show, Lopez shared an anecdote about the time she met Barbra Streisand for the first time. Streisand commented on the engagement ring Affleck had given Lopez years ago, indicating that it was a “big diamond.” This mention of Affleck has reignited rumors about the state of their relationship.
Lopez and Affleck began dating in 2002 and got engaged later that year. However, they called off their wedding in 2004. Recent reports have suggested that Affleck may have “come to his senses” about their marriage. Lopez was seen at the premiere of her movie “Atlas” without Affleck, despite wearing a band on her left ring finger. This has added fuel to the fire of rumors surrounding their relationship.
During her appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Lopez also discussed the challenges of bringing her twins, Max and Emme, on tour with her. She admitted that it can be awkward for her kids to see her perform, as they are used to seeing her at home without the “sexy” elements of her stage performances. This has raised questions about how Lopez balances her performance persona with her role as a mother.
Recent reports have indicated that Affleck and Lopez may be living separately, with Affleck staying in a home in the Brentwood neighborhood of LA, while Lopez remains at their $60 million Beverly Hills mansion. This separation has fueled rumors about the state of their marriage, especially after Lopez attended the 2024 Met Gala without Affleck, who is one of the event’s co-chairs. These reports have led to speculation about whether Lopez and Affleck are on the verge of a split.
Jennifer Lopez’s recent comments and public appearances have raised questions about the status of her marriage to Ben Affleck. Rumors of separation and living apart have only added to the speculation surrounding their relationship. Only time will tell whether these rumors will prove to be true or if Lopez and Affleck will work through any difficulties they may be facing.
