Jennifer Lopez Calls Ben Affleck A 'Hero' On Father's Day Amid Claims She's 'Over' Fighting For Their Marriage
Jennifer Lopez gave her husband, Ben Affleck, a shoutout on Father's Day despite rumors that they could be heading for divorce.
Lopez, 54, acknowledged Affleck, 51, on Sunday to mark Father's Day. The "Marry Me" actress shared a black and white photo of the "Justice League" star on her Instagram Story and even called him their "hero."
"Our hero," her message read with a white heart emoji. "Happy Father's Day."
Affleck is a dad of five. He shares three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner -- Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12. He's also a stepdad to Lopez's 16-year-old twins, Emme and Max, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
For weeks, Affleck and Lopez have been plagued with divorce rumors. However, despite the split speculations, they are still seen together in various activities involving his children.
For instance, Lopez was seen at Violet and Samuel's graduation. She also showed up at Affleck's rental home on Wednesday, where she crossed paths with Garner. The family gathered together to celebrate Samuel's graduation.
Affleck and Lopez have been living separately for weeks. They also put their $60 million marital home for sale, fueling the divorce rumors. However, the A-list couple was seen at their shared mansion on Saturday. They later arrived at his rental home in separate cars.
Lopez's sweet gesture for Affleck came amid reports that she was already done with their marriage. The "Let's Get Loud" singer has allegedly accepted that her marriage with the "Gone Girl" actor is doomed.
"Jenny has had enough, and she really tried, but she can do no more, it's not getting any better, it's worse," an unnamed source told the Daily Mail. "Ben is a great guy, but he can be grumpy and a downer. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn't smile. If they saw how it really was, they would not attack her," a friend of Lopez said."
The source also claimed that Affleck "smokes and cusses" and is allegedly "irritated a lot of the time." Despite this, the source maintained that Garner's ex-husband is a "great director and actor" and a "wonderful father."
