LOS ANGELES, May 20: Amid ongoing speculation about the state of their relationship, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez made a public appearance together in Los Angeles on Sunday, leaving an event at the Aero Theatre in Brentwood.
The celebrity couple, often referred to as "Bennifer," arrived separately but departed together after attending a movie event with their children and Affleck's ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. Despite arriving separately, they left the theater together, flashing smiles and sharing a seemingly light-hearted moment.
During the outing, Affleck notably sported his wedding ring, a departure from previous days when he was spotted without it. Lopez also proudly displayed her wedding band, embracing Affleck and his middle child, Fin, upon her arrival at the theater.
Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 54, were seen arriving with their respective children. Affleck's daughter Violet, 18, and son Samuel, 12, accompanied Garner, while Lopez arrived with her daughter Emme, 16, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
The sighting comes amid swirling rumors about the couple's marriage, with reports suggesting they have been "living separately" and that Affleck moved out of their $60 million Los Angeles home several weeks ago. Affleck is currently residing in a Brentwood rental home while filming his latest project, "The Accountant 2."
Despite the speculation, sources close to the couple have indicated that they have not split but are facing challenges in their relationship. Lopez's recent solo outings and social media activity, including liking a post about "lack of integrity and respect," have fueled further speculation about the state of their marriage.
The couple's love story dates back to 2002 when they first began dating while filming "Jersey Girl." After becoming engaged in 2003, they called off their engagement in 2004 but rekindled their romance in 2021.
As rumors continue to swirl, fans and media alike are closely watching the developments in the relationship of one of Hollywood's most talked-about couples.
