It’s no news that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are experiencing some challenges in their marriage. Interestingly, amid these challenges, they remain committed to maintaining a positive public appearance.
Recently, at Affleck’s daughter Violet’s graduation, the couple were seen holding hands. Similarly, the couple reunited at a YMCA in Santa Monica, where Affleck’s son Samuel had a basketball game. So, yes, this is evidence that they have shown a bit more affection in public, though subtly.
At Samule’s basketball game, Lopez and Affleck exchanged a quick air kiss on the cheek before heading inside. However, they chose not to hold hands as they entered the venue, though it’s shocking yet understandable.
Apart from maintaining a positive public appearance, Lopez and Affleck are focused on presenting a united front for their family. To show how much she prioritizes family, Lopez canceled her “This Is Me…Live” tour, which was meant to promote her album.

Despite these appearances, multiple sources indicate that Lopez and Affleck are “living separate lives” while remaining married. An insider told Entertainment Tonight that the couple entered their relationship with high hopes and craving change. Sadly, those changes have not materialized.
