Jennifer Lopez & Ben Affleck Reunite in LA After Divorce Filing


In a surprising turn of events, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck reunited for the first time since their divorce filing. The pair were spotted together at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles over the weekend, leaving fans and onlookers curious about the real reasons behind their meetup.

The former power couple, who filed for divorce in August after two years of marriage, seemed to put their differences aside for the sake of their blended family. Photographs from the outing, first shared by the anonymous celebrity gossip account @deuxmoi on Instagram, show Affleck in his signature casual style—a royal blue button-down shirt paired with jeans and sunglasses—while Lopez opted for a black turtleneck and dark wash flare jeans that highlighted her famous curves.

This family outing is particularly noteworthy, however, given recent reports about the couple’s relationships with each other’s children. According to People magazine, a source previously claimed in August 2024 that the Oscar winner had already “not been in touch” with Lopez’s 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, for quite some time. “The fact that he has not seen her kids in a long time, it’s like he left,” the insider revealed at the time.

However, the same source pointed out that Lopez has maintained a close bond with Affleck’s children, Violet, Fin, and Samuel, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. “She keeps in touch with the children, and she’s a good mom,” the source added of J-Lo. Her commitment to their blended family has been pretty clear in recent months, with Lopez spotted at Samuel’s graduation ceremony in June and bonding with Violet in the Hamptons in July.

Despite the challenges of navigating their high-profile divorce, both Lopez and Affleck now seem determined to prioritize their children’s well-being. As one insider told People, “Family is very important to both of them, and together they were family people — and the connection doesn’t end.” During happier times, Lopez even praised Affleck’s parenting skills publicly. “[Jennifer] went out there and told the world what a great dad he was,” a source shared. Now, this recent outing at the Beverly Hills Hotel could be seen as a step towards establishing a new normal for their blended family.

J-Lo and Affleck’s divorce proceedings continue, with Lopez citing April 26, 2024, as the date of separation. Their $60 million marital mansion is now up for sale, symbolizing the end of “Bennifer 2.0”. However, there’s a silver lining. During their time together, Lopez reportedly helped Affleck “become a family man again,” as one source put it, an influence that appears to be lasting even as they navigate their separation.
