Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez in 2023
It is unlikely that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck call off their divorce despite appearing to be on good terms in recent days.
JLo and Affleck unexpectedly reunited in Los Angeles, weeks after she filed for divorce. The two made a public appearance at the Beverly Hills Hotel with two of Affleck’s children, Seraphina and Samuel, and Jennifer Lopez’s twins, Emme and Max, according to People magazine. Affleck’s eldest daughter, Violet, is in college.
“Everyone got together for a fun lunch so the kids could hang out. (Jennifer) is trying to be friendly with Ben. However, they are still moving forward with the divorce. They are working out the financial details amicably,” a source told the outlet.
“A divorce is never easy, but Jennifer doesn’t want to be selfish about it. The kids always got along and had fun together. It makes her happy to see the kids happy together. Happy kids are her priority,” the source continued.
Lopez and Affleck married in 2022. She filed for divorce on August 20 citing irreconcilable differences, according to TMZ.
A source claims that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were kissing
Jennifer Lopez and Affleck took their brood to the Polo Lounge for lunch and didn’t exactly keep a low profile. Paparazzi were on hand and snapped the former couple entering the venue with their families.
While some fans may have been surprised to see them together, it seems JLo and Affleck want to show a united front as they navigate their split. However, a source he told Page Six that there was something else going on.
“Ben and JLo are currently at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel holding hands and kissing. The kids are with them but at a separate table,” the source shared.
Although there are plenty of images of Lopez and Affleck entering the Beverly Hills Hotel, there has been no photographic evidence of the two holding hands or kissing.
Some fans thought Ben Affleck looked angry while hanging out with Jennifer Lopez and the kids
The pop culture site DeuxMoi was one of the first to post photos of Affleck and Lopez hanging out at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Dozens of fans commented on the photos, with many saying Affleck looked unhappy.
“I know a lot of the comments online about these two are very anti-JLO, but I don’t like her energy and aggressive body language and I never have. That second picture stresses me out just looking at it,” wrote one person.
“It always seems like he’s yelling at her,” another person said.
“It always seems like she is yelling at him. Always in his face. I worry about her,” a third Instagram user echoed this.
“This really fascinates me, is he actually a miserable person or does he just have a miserable resting face? Do paparazzi just use pictures where he looks like he’s crazy? Because picture 2 definitely looks like he’s yelling at her or giving an attitude but he very well could not be doing that, it’s just a picture in an awkward moment and we’re all assuming he’s yelling because he looks miserable and we know they don’t have the strongest relationship,” a fourth comment read.
