LOS ANGELES, July 21: Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck spent their second wedding anniversary on opposite coasts, fueling speculation about their relationship status. Sources close to the couple told Fox News Digital that there is no indication they are reconciling. "They are not getting back together," a source confirmed, adding that Lopez had hoped to make the relationship work, but Affleck now feels like a different person to her.
Currently, Lopez is in the Hamptons while Affleck remains in Los Angeles. Photographs show Lopez leaving a gym in the Hamptons, showcasing her toned abs in a white bralette and light-colored sweatpants. Meanwhile, Affleck was seen in Los Angeles, dressed in a suit and carrying a duffle bag, reflecting his busy schedule with ongoing office work.
Despite the separation, Lopez has been spending time with Affleck’s oldest daughter, Violet. The actor shares three children—Violet, Seraphina, and Sam—with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, while Lopez has twins, Max and Emme, with her third husband, Marc Anthony. The source noted that Violet's continued closeness with Lopez highlights the personal bonds that remain intact despite the couple's distance.
Affleck, who is currently filming “The Accountant 2” in California, and Lopez, who has been spotted with Violet, have reportedly not made any plans to publicly address their relationship status. "They have zero plans to announce this anytime soon," the source added.
Lopez had previously been in the spotlight with films and documentaries exploring her romance with Affleck, including "This Is Me… Now: A Love Story" and "The Greatest Love Story Never Told." In the latter, Lopez discussed how her new album was inspired by love letters from Affleck, although the couple has faced criticism for their public displays of affection.
Jane Fonda, who appeared in the documentary, expressed concern about the public nature of Lopez and Affleck’s relationship. "It feels too much like you’re trying to prove something instead of just living it," Fonda advised Lopez. Lopez responded in the documentary by dismissing the criticism, emphasizing that their public displays are simply part of their lives.
Rumors of a breakup emerged earlier this year when Lopez and Affleck went over a month without being seen together. The situation escalated when Affleck reportedly began moving his belongings out of their shared mansion and Lopez subsequently posted a music video for her song "Cambia El Paso," which some interpreted as a reflection on their relationship.
Currently, Lopez resides at their Beverly Hills estate, which they have listed for $68 million, while Affleck is staying in a rental property in Brentwood. "The marriage is completely over, and Jennifer is heartbroken," a source revealed.
Lopez’s recent Instagram post of the music video for "Cambia El Paso," featuring lyrics like "He doesn't deserve to have her in his arms," further fueled speculation about their separation. The song, which includes the line "one, two, three, move forward," reflects Lopez’s move towards change and self-empowerment.
