By In the midst of swirling rumors about a potential split from his wife, Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck has been seen staying at a home in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, seemingly without her. On Thursday morning, paparazzi photographed the actor leaving the house, which he has been frequenting and spending the night at, according to sources.
The sighting comes on the heels of an InTouch report this week claiming that Affleck and Lopez have called it quits, with the story suggesting that Ben had already moved out of their marital home in Beverly Hills. While it remains unclear if he has completely moved out, it has been confirmed that Affleck has been staying at this Brentwood address over the past week.
Interestingly, both Ben and Jennifer have been spotted wearing their wedding rings in recent days, including in the photo of Ben leaving the Brentwood house with his arm dangling out the window. Lopez has also been seen wearing her wedding ring while out and about in Los Angeles this week.
However, the couple has been noticeably absent from each other’s side in public, including at high-profile events like the Met Gala last week, where Jennifer attended solo. Ben’s absence was attributed to his filming schedule for “The Accountant 2,” though he was present at Tom Brady’s roast in L.A. the night before the Met.
Earlier this week, Jennifer was seen house hunting with her longtime producing partner, which, in light of these developments, has led to speculation that she might be looking for a place of her own, despite the couple having purchased a massive estate together just last year.
The last public sighting of Ben and Jennifer together was back in March, when they were in New York City. Since then, they have not been photographed in the same frame.
It is worth noting that Ben’s ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, also resides in the Brentwood area, and the two have been seen attending their children’s events together in recent weeks. While his presence in the neighborhood could be explained as a family matter, sources confirm that he is not staying at Garner’s house but rather has his place nearby.
Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez was spotted at a dance studio in L.A., still wearing her wedding ring, which she has consistently been seen with, in recent appearances. Her Instagram activity has also raised eyebrows, as she reportedly liked a post about broken relationships amid the split rumors.
As speculation continues about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s marriage, the couple’s separate public appearances and living arrangements have fueled rumors of a potential split. However, until an official statement is made, the status of their relationship remains uncertain.
