Ben Affleck recently attended his daughter Violet’s high school graduation party alone, igniting further rumors about his rocky relationship with Jennifer Lopez. The “Argo” actor, looking rather somber, was seen arriving solo at the celebration in Los Angeles over Memorial Day weekend.
Affleck, 51, dressed in a beige blazer over a white button-down shirt, blue jeans, and boots, seemed to be in a reflective mood as he joined the festivities for his 18-year-old daughter, Violet. The graduation comes as Violet, whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, received her diploma last week.
Jennifer Garner, known for her role in “13 Going on 30,” celebrated the milestone by sharing emotional photos of herself at the ceremony, captioning them, “Tell me you have a graduate without telling me you have a graduate. 🎓 (bless our hearts ♥️🤣).” Garner and Affleck, who ended their 13-year marriage in 2018, also share two other children: Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.
Adding fuel to the fire, Jennifer Lopez, 54, was noticeably absent from Violet’s graduation party. Rumors have been swirling that the couple, who rekindled their early 2000s romance in 2021 and married in Las Vegas the following year, are heading for divorce. A source revealed to Page Six that the two are living separately and contemplating ending their marriage.
“If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would,” an insider disclosed. “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.”
Speculation about the couple’s relationship began when Affleck did not accompany Lopez to the Met Gala earlier this month. Additionally, he was spotted without his wedding ring and did not attend the premiere of Lopez’s film “Atlas.”
At the premiere of her Netflix film, Lopez banned all questions regarding her marriage, though she still had to deal with reporters prying about her relationship with Affleck. The singer and Oscar winner’s rekindled romance seemed like a fairy tale, but recent events suggest otherwise.
Affleck’s solo appearance at Violet’s graduation and Lopez’s conspicuous absence are just the latest signs of trouble in paradise. As fans and media continue to speculate, the future of this Hollywood power couple remains uncertain. Are they really heading for a split, or is this just a rough patch? Only time will tell.
