Ben Affleck is aware that all eyes are on him as he deals with marriage issues with his wife Jennifer Lopez.

Recently, there has been speculation about the state of their relationship, especially as Affleck, aged 51, has been seen wearing his wedding ring on and off in the past few weeks.

In an attempt to change the narrative, Affleck was spotted in Los Angeles on Wednesday, May 22, hiding his ring finger.

Affleck was seen picking up his 12-year-old son Samuel from school while wearing a blue sweatshirt that covered his left arm and hand. Despite this, the Oscar winner smiled for the cameras before driving away.

The day before, Affleck was seen leaving Giorgio Baldi, an Italian restaurant in Santa Monica, wearing his wedding ring. However, on May 17, it was revealed that he and Lopez are not currently living together. According to a source, Affleck moved out of their California mansion several weeks ago.

As Affleck continues to step out solo, Lopez is busy promoting her latest film Atlas, drawing attention to her own martial accessories.

Atlas Jennifer Lopez Split

Jennifer Lopez attended the Los Angeles premiere on Monday, May 20. Her fiancé, Ben Affleck, did not join her at the event. Lopez walked the red carpet without her green diamond engagement ring. Although she wore her platinum wedding band, her chartreuse sparkler was missing. She accessorized with dangling earrings that had a pistachio-colored gem and a matching collar necklace.

Lopez chose not to wear her ring once more at the Atlas premiere in Mexico City on Tuesday, May 21. The last time she was seen wearing the ring was at the 2024 Met Gala on May 6.

The couple has kept quiet about their relationship status, with Lopez even avoiding a question about their marriage at an Atlas panel in Mexico City on Wednesday, May 22.

During a panel on Wednesday, May 22, a reporter asked about rumors regarding her marriage with Affleck. However, the moderator quickly stopped the question from being answered.

Her costar, Simu Liu, stepped in and said, "Okay we’re not doing that. Thank you so much guys, we really appreciate it."

Before we continue, Lopez, who is 54 years old, expressed her disappointment about the topic being brought up. She smiled in the video clip, which was shared on various social media platforms.

According to Us Weekly, the couple got married in July 2022 after rekindling their romance from the early 2000s. They are currently facing challenges in their marriage as Lopez gets busier with work commitments and gears up for her upcoming This Is Me … Live Tour.
