Jennifer Lopez has canceled her upcoming tour amid reports of a split with husband Ben Affleck.
Tour promoter LiveNation said it was canceled because the mom-of-two is “taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends”.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” the 54-year-old shared with fans on her newsletter OnTheJLo.
She continued: “I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time.”

But she told AP at the Atlas premiere that the “truth is, over the past few years I’ve tried to slow down more and be home more”.

Ben and Jen were pictured together on May 30 2024 for the first time in weeks, snapped in Los Angeles on their way to a graduation party for Ben and ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s daughter Violet, who recently graduated from high school.

Later that day they were also pictured walking hand-in-hand leaving her graduation ceremony.

Ben revealed in his wife’s 2024 documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told that he wanted to keep their relationship private.
“Getting back together, I said, ‘Listen, one of the things I don’t want is a relationship on social media,'”, Ben said, opening up on their differences.
“And then I sort of realized it’s not a fair thing to ask. It’s sort of like you’re gonna marry a boat captain and you go, ‘Well, I don’t like the water.’ We’re just two people with kind of different approaches trying to learn to compromise.”
