Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez Spend Second Anniversary Apart Amid Divorce Rumors
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez did not reunite for a romantic date on their second wedding anniversary, according to a report.
Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 54, have been living separately amid rumors that they have marital strife and their marriage is heading for divorce. The celebrity couple seemingly fueled the speculations about their troubled relationship by spending their second wedding anniversary on Tuesday apart as they were seen on opposite ends of the coast.
The "Hustlers" actress was spotted enjoying a ride in The Hamptons with her manager, Benny Medina. On the same day, the "Gone Girl" actor was photographed smiling in Los Angeles as he entered his office.

In the photo obtained by the Daily Mail, Affleck looked dapper in a suit when he arrived at his office in Los Angeles. He was stylish in a white button-down beneath his navy blue suit. The "Accountant" star was carrying a large iced coffee and a duffel bag. Interestingly, he was still wearing his wedding ring during the sighting.
On the other hand, Lopez was spotted in a convertible with Medina. The latter drove the classic vehicle through the Hamptons with the "Let's Get Loud" singer in the passenger seat wearing sunglasses.
Lopez and Affleck eloped in Las Vegas on July 16. A month later, they tied the knot again in front of their family and friends on his property in Georgia.
When she appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" in 2023, Lopez said they did it because she still had "PTSD" from the end of their engagement 20 years prior.
"We were planning to get married in August in Savannah. That was like the family's going to be there, everybody's going to be there, and it was so stressful," Lopez explained.
"I don't know if you know this, but 20 years ago, we were supposed to get married, and it kind of all fell apart back then. And this time, we still -- I absolutely did -- had a little PTSD. And so I was like, 'Is this really happening?' We were so happy, and, of course, it was happening, but I just felt like the wedding was so stressful and one day Ben just says, 'F**k it. Let's just go to Vegas and get married tonight.'"
Less than two years after they tied the knot, rumors swirled that they could be divorcing. Her family members, including her mom, Guadalupe Rodriguez, and her sisters, Leslie Ann and Lynda, reportedly want her to divorce Affleck and move on with her life.
However, Lopez and Affleck haven't addressed the divorce rumors yet.
Meanwhile, the "Atlas" star was spotted walking arm-in-arm with her stepdaughter, Violet, on Sunday.
Affleck's daughter and wife reportedly "enjoy each other's company," a source told People. "They both seem so happy to be spending this time together and are just enjoying the moment."
