Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez seemingly spent their second wedding anniversary apart – amid rumors they are headed to divorce.
The Gone Girl star, 51, was spotted smiling in Los Angeles as he headed to his office on Tuesday, July 16 – while Jennifer, 54, enjoyed a ride in The Hamptons with her manager Benny Medina that same day.
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 coast as 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.

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.

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, N.Y., 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 was seen without his wedding ring on Tuesday and resides at a rental home near his children’s mother, while Jennifer recently took a solo vacation to Italy.
According to People, the Flash star was also seen moving his belongings out of their Beverly Hills home.

‘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.’
