Ben Affleck moved out of his shared mansion with Jennifer Lopez when she was away in Europe.
Another source says Ben still lives at the Brentwood rental. He’s been there for about two months. He seems fine. He’s been at work every day, and he’s spending time with his kids, too.
This is the latest update about their marriage.
The press calls them “Bennifer.” They were together from 2002 to 2004. After their first split, they married and had kids with Jennifer Garner and Marc Anthony.
They reunited in 2021 and got married in 2022, and they have five kids in total. Affleck has three kids with Garner: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12. Lopez has two kids with Anthony: 16-year-old twins Emme and Max.
For months, reports said they were on the rocks.
In May, J.Lo went to the Met Gala without her husband. Affleck was then told to stay at a house different from Lopez’s.
Lopez was also seen looking for a house without Affleck.
InTouch says Lopez and Affleck are in therapy to work on their marriage.
“Ben is willing to try therapy, even though he hates it,” a source told the outlet.
This month, the couple’s $60 million Beverly Hills mansion was listed on Zillow.
Affleck has reportedly changed his mind.
“If there were a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would,” an insider told Page Six in May. “He thinks the last two years were a dream, and he’s come to his senses now and knows this won’t work.”
Lopez was seen happy and relaxed on vacation in Italy without Affleck. She was photographed taking photos of herself in a white bathing suit on a boat.
“Jennifer’s trip to Italy might give her time to think about her marriage and future,” relationship expert Louella Alderson told the Mirror earlier this month.
Lopez still thanked him on Father’s Day, calling him her hero.
Despite reports, they’ve kept a united front. The “Selena” star also attended her stepson Samuel’s middle school graduation ceremony, arriving separately from Affleck.
The pop star also had lunch with her stepdaughter Violet in June.
