During Jennifer Lopez’s promotional events for Atlas, questions about her spouse, Ben Affleck, have been restricted due to ongoing speculations about their relationship. The singer, along with Netflix, has instructed reporters not to inquire about the Argo director during their coverage of Atlas-related events. Additionally, Lopez has only participated in group interviews with her co-stars Simu Liu and Sterling K. Brown. While this approach successfully avoided the topic in Los Angeles and Mexico City premieres, a reporter in Mexico breached this rule by directly asking Lopez about the rumors of a split. Despite wearing her wedding ring, Lopez seemed uneasy but jokingly scolded the reporter for the inappropriate question.
During her promotional appearances for the movie Atlas, Jennifer Lopez, 54, has made it clear she does not want to discuss rumors about her relationship with Ben Affleck. Despite her request to avoid personal questions, a reporter still asked her about the ‘Ben Affleck rumors’ that have been circulating. Instead of addressing the rumors directly, J-Lo gracefully handled the situation without confirming or denying anything. Her co-star, Simu, even stepped in to support her and appreciate her dedication to the film as a producer. Meanwhile, Ben Affleck was photographed in Los Angeles looking happy as he spent time with his 12-year-old son. Although there has been speculation about the state of their relationship, he seemed at ease as he went about his day. With reports of their marriage issues circulating, both Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are trying to focus on their work and family life.
The popular musician and Netflix have informed journalists at Atlas events that inquiries about the 51-year-old Argo filmmaker are not allowed, according to TMZ. They were spotted together with Ben on May 19th in Los Angeles.
The press were told that Lopez will be joining Liu and Brown for group interviews only, as seen in the photo from the LA premiere on Monday.
At a press event in Mexico, a journalist disregarded the request to avoid personal questions and directly asked the singer about rumors of a breakup.
Lopez didn’t shy away from addressing the gossip surrounding her fourth marriage, as seen hanging out with Ben Affleck on January 7.
Ben has been staying at a fancy mansion while working on his latest movie, “The Accountant 2.” The mansion is just two blocks away from his children’s mother, who is reportedly trying to help him save his marriage to Lopez. Insiders have mentioned that Lopez has been confiding in Garner too, as they both worry about Ben’s sobriety.
As for Lopez, she has been through three divorces already. Her first was with Cuban actor Ojani Noa, lasting only 11 months back in 1997. She then married choreographer Cris Judd in 2001, but they divorced by 2003. Her longest marriage was to Latin hitmaker Marc Anthony, with whom she had twins during their 10-year marriage. Their marriage ended in 2014 after separating in 2011.
Lopez made her way to Mexico for a promotional tour for Netflix’s Atlas, arriving on Tuesday. Despite some speculation about her relationship with Affleck, she seemed unfazed as she posed for photographers. She looked stunning in a sheer jumpsuit, sharing that she is currently at her thinnest.
Recently, there have been reports indicating that Affleck is moving towards divorcing Lopez, describing their marriage as a ‘fever dream’.
Despite the rumors of a potential breakup, the singer has consistently sported her wedding ring throughout all of her Atlas promotional events.
Affleck recently settled into a luxurious rental mansion in Brentwood, which costs a whopping $100,000 per month. The sprawling property is conveniently situated just a stone’s throw away from his former spouse, Jennifer Garner, after he made the decision to leave his shared home with Lopez a few weeks earlier. This sighting of him was on May 21.
Amid swirling rumors of a split, reports from PageSix suggest that Ben Affleck is considering ending his two-year marriage, suggesting that he may have tied the knot in a moment of ‘temporary insanity’.
A source mentioned that the Oscar-winner has now ‘come to his senses’ after being blindly in love with Jennifer Lopez previously. Despite spending quality time with her lately, he now feels that he has a clear head and is ready to move on.
The source even joked that if there was a way to divorce due to temporary insanity, Affleck would have considered it.
On the other hand, People magazine insists that the couple will work through their issues as they share a ‘great love story’.
Despite Affleck downsizing to a temporary home, it’s worth noting that he and J.Lo had bought a massive mansion last year. The speculation about their marriage arose when they were not seen together in public for almost two months, but sources claim it was due to their busy schedules.
Hopefully, the couple’s recent appearance at their child’s school performance indicates a possible reconciliation.
