On the evening of August 15, Jennifer Lopez opted for a night out with friends rather than commemorating her husband Ben Affleck’s 52nd birthday.
Instead of sharing sweet sentiments about Affleck, she posted vibrant snapshots from a Bruno Mars concert at the newly opened Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California.
This choice has sparked curiosity among fans, especially given the couple’s recent challenges.
The following day, Lopez took to her Instagram stories to give her followers a glimpse of her fun-filled night.
She shared images of herself dancing solo in the crowd and posing with friends, all while enjoying the electrifying atmosphere of the concert.
Her caption hinted at the carefree spirit of the evening, emphasizing that she was simply enjoying the moment.
Dressed in a stylish white crop top, Lopez sported a playful ponytail and chic glasses, accessorizing with an array of jewelry that included her wedding ring.
The star-studded event also featured appearances by celebrities like Sophia Bush, Kelsea Ballerini, Bazoma St. John, and Meghan Trainor.
While Lopez chose to skip the red carpet, she was seen mingling with Ashton Kutcher inside the venue, further highlighting her social circle during this tumultuous time.
Interestingly, Affleck was nowhere to be seen at the concert.
However, reports indicate that Lopez may have visited him earlier that day, despite the ongoing marital issues they are facing.
Photographs captured her leaving Affleck’s residence alone, raising eyebrows about the state of their relationship.
In a twist of fate, just two months prior, Us Weekly disclosed that Affleck had vacated their shared Beverly Hills home.
This decision coincided with the couple putting their lavish $68 million mansion on the market, which boasts 12 bedrooms.
Shortly thereafter, on July 24, Affleck purchased a new property for $20.5 million, further fueling speculation about their future.
Fans of the beloved couple, often referred to as “Bennifer,” eagerly awaited any sign of affection from Lopez on social media for Affleck’s birthday.
Instead, her only posts consisted of photos from her own birthday celebration in the Hamptons, leaving many wondering about the couple’s current status.
Despite the silence surrounding their marital strife, insiders revealed in an Us Weekly cover story that Affleck and Lopez are experiencing significant differences in their lives.
While they have not publicly addressed their issues, the lack of a birthday tribute raised concerns among their supporters.
Married for two years, Lopez and Affleck reportedly have a prenuptial agreement designed to facilitate a smooth separation if necessary.
