In the midst of swirling rumors about their marriage, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are putting on a brave face, especially when it comes to their kids.
The couple recently attended a graduation party for their 12-year-old son, Samuel, showcasing their commitment to co-parenting, despite some apparent challenges in their relationship.
The celebration took place at a rental property in Brentwood, just after both stars separately attended Samuel’s graduation ceremony.
Interestingly, Jennifer Garner, Affleck’s ex-wife, was also part of the gathering, creating a blended family atmosphere.
Lopez arrived at the party with an upbeat demeanor, clearly aiming to keep things positive for the children.
On June 12, J.Lo was spotted visiting Affleck’s new investment property in Brentwood, California.
This location is significant as it’s where he has relocated following his move out of their shared home nearly a month prior.
Conveniently, this new residence is close to Garner’s house, hinting at an effort to maintain family ties.
Although the kids were not seen, it’s likely they were nearby, enjoying the family-centric environment.
Dressed casually in a blue button-up shirt with rolled sleeves, white jeans, and stylish Louboutin heels, Lopez appeared relaxed and cheerful.
However, reports suggest that she left Affleck’s home without staying overnight, which raises eyebrows about their current living arrangements.
This behavior aligns with their separate arrivals at the graduation event, where they kept a noticeable distance from each other.
Garner opted for a laid-back look as well, sporting black pants, a light blue shirt, and a short green coat, while Affleck maintained a formal appearance in a classic blue suit paired with a white dress shirt.
It’s worth noting that while Garner has consistently worn her wedding band, Affleck has been spotted without his on multiple occasions, further fueling speculation about their relationship status.
Adding to the intrigue, Lopez previously brought her 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, to the party, emphasizing her role as a dedicated mother.
Recent reports indicate that the couple is navigating some unresolved issues, which has led them to list their stunning $60 million mansion for sale.
This decision has sparked discussions about the state of their marriage.
Sources close to the couple have clarified that the sale of their home isn’t necessarily a sign of trouble, stating that Affleck never really felt at home in the property.
Meanwhile, Lopez has made headlines by canceling her planned $20-25 million residency in Los Angeles.
