Jennifer Lopez grimaces during outing without Ben Affleck amid marital woes
She’s “Real.”
Jennifer Lopez put her feelings on display while going for a drive with her longtime manager, Benny Medina, in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The “Selena” star pursed her lips while riding in the passenger seat as paparazzi caught a glimpse of the duo driving in Medina’s BMW convertible.
Lopez, 54, attempted to conceal her facial expressions with a pair of oversize sunglasses, but the lenses still captured her displeased look.
It’s unclear where the pair were headed, but Lopez’s husband, Ben Affleck, did not join them for the jaunt.
The sighting comes about a week after the “heartsick” multi-hyphenate canceled her tour, which was turning out to be a flop, to spend more time with her “children, family and close friends.”
���Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” she wrote to fans in her “On the JLo” newsletter.
The “Jenny From the Block” singer and “Argo” star, 51, have been the subject of divorce rumors for the past month in light of Affleck’s decision not to attend the Met Gala with Lopez, who served as one of the event’s co-chairs.
Sources then told us the Oscar winner had temporarily rented a house in Brentwood, Calif., while house-hunting for a new place. We also heard that Lopez was looking into purchasing a new house, but a source close to the pop star said she was merely interested in acquiring an investment property.
Eventually, a source told us Affleck came “to his senses” about his apparently failing marriage to Lopez.
“If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would,” our insider shared. “He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream, and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.”
Neither Affleck nor Lopez has publicly commented on the speculation, though the latter shut down a reporter who dared to ask her about it.
Although the “Good Will Hunting” actor skipped all of Lopez’s “Atlas” promotional events, Bennifer 2.0 put on a united front for their blended family to celebrate Affleck’s daughter Violet’s graduation.
