Months have passed of strong rumors of marital problems and possible breakups between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.
New paparazzo reports show that the actor is already going out without his wedding ring and sorry, but in Hollywood that means something. Right?
The thing is, all this is happening while JLo is gone. Let’s remember that she coincidentally took some time alone on vacation in Italy.
The actor and filmmaker was seen without his ring a few days ago when he had lunch with his daughter Violet in Los Angeles, in photographs published by The Daily Mail.
Of course, people have noticed that it is not a simple coincidence or a moment of relaxation. Affleck had worn the ring in casual clothing as well as in galas and formal events. We attach evidence:
Meanwhile, Lopez has been spotted on her own, sunbathing during a stay in Italy with friends.
These celebrities have been known to have been living apart, with the singer residing in the couple’s marital home in Beverly Hills, which has already been put up for sale, while Affleck remains in a rental a few miles away, amid the strain on their marriage.
