Jennifer Lopez clings to crumbling marriage by still wearing her ring on lonely bike ride in Hamptons while spending wedding anniversary 3,000 miles away from husband Ben Affleck

Must read

Jennifer Lopez looked somber on Tuesday as she took a bike ride on the day of her second wedding anniversary — with her husband Ben Affleck nowhere to be seen.

The Out Of Sight star, 54, was pictured in the Hamptons in New York as she got some fresh air while dressed in casual overalls, even as she and the 51-year-old actor and director are rumored to be heading toward divorce.

On the same day, Ben was pictured on the other side of the country at his office in Los Angeles, as he appeared to be taking care of business.

Jennifer was notably pictured wearing her wedding ring on her bike ride, after Ben was seen sporting his band back in California on the same day. 

The cross-country outings happened just days after the couple put their Beverly Hills Mansion on the market for a whopping $68 million, which only spurred fears of a potentially impending divorce.

She looked as if she had been doing housework earlier in the day day due to her paint-splattered off-white overalls, which hung loosely on her trim frame. 

Jennifer appeared to have on a white tank top underneath, and she wore a simple set of brown flip flops that highlighted her brilliant white nails.

She completed her ultra-casual look by tying her brunette locks back in a messy bun, with strands whipping about in the breeze, and she also wore a pair of large hoop earrings.

Earlier on Tuesday, Jennifer was seen enjoying a car ride in The Hamptons with her manager Benny Medina.

The sightings come exactly two years after the couple first tied the knot at A Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022. They said ‘I do’ again in a more lavish ceremony the following month in Georgia of 2022. 

But the duo were spotted on opposite ends of the countryas they marked their second anniversary apart. 

A smiling Ben was spotted suited up once again as he arrived to his office in Los Angeles, carrying a large iced coffee and a duffel bag. 

The star looked stylish wearing a crisp white button down beneath a sharp navy blue suit.

The actor was also seen wearing his wedding ring as he arrived to the office. 

He rocked a freshly-shaven complexion and flashed a smile as he made his way into the lot. 

Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, Jennifer was seen going for a drive in a convertible with her long-time manager Benny Medina. 

Her manager drove the classic vehicle through the Hamptons as JLo sat beside him with her sunglasses on.  

It comes several days after Ben’s daughter Violet Affleck was spotted bonding with Jennifer. 

The duo were seen walking with their arms around one another during an outing in Southampton, New York. 

They were also joined by Violet’s friend, actress Cassidey Fralin.

A source told People that Jennifer ‘seemed to be very happy shopping with Ben’s daughter. She had a big smile on her face.’

A second insider shared that the duo was shopping at Roller Rabbit in East Hampton, NY, where they were ‘surrounded by people’ and appeared’ unfazed’ when they exited the store.

The outing comes on the heels of rumors that Jennifer and Ben are experiencing marital issues two years after they first tied the knot in 2022.

The couple spent the Fourth of July weekend apart, as the This Is Me… Now star celebrated in the Hamptons with her family and friends while the Deep Water actor stayed in Los Angeles.

Ben spent time with his and ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s three kids, Violet, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12.

On Thursday, it was revealed that their $60.85million Beverly Hills marital home had been put on the market publicly, per TMZ.

Back in June, the pair tried to quietly offload the 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom mansion to no avail.

The MLS listing notes that the house was renovated within the last four months, hence the $3 million spike in the asking price.

Earlier this summer, reports surfaced that Jen and Ben have been living apart for ‘months,’ amid speculation that they are headed for divorce.

‘Ben continues to live at the Brentwood rental. He’s been there for about two months now,’ an insider told the outlet. ‘He seems okay. He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids.’

But the Shotgun Wedding actress did wish her other half a Happy Father’s Day.

‘Our hero. Happy Father’s Day,’ she gushed over a black-and-white photo of Ben with a white heart emoji in an Instagram Story.

The duo also recently attended Violet’s high school graduation together.

Meanwhile, in May, sources told People Jennifer and Ben’s marriage ‘is not in the best place at the moment.’

Meanwhile, Us Weekly claimed on Wednesday that there is a ‘sliver of hope’ that Ben and Jennifer could get back together.

‘Jennifer suggested they just take time to figure it out,’ the source said.

It was also added that Bennifer 2.0 ‘still haven’t made a decision’ regarding splitting.

‘They are going through so much individually and as a couple,’ another source told Us. ‘They may take some time to see if this complicated moment can resolve itself and they come back to each other [as] better people.’
