Ben Affleck marked his 52nd birthday without Jennifer Lopez by his side, intensifying rumors of a possible divorce. Instead, Affleck received a friendly visit from his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. Photographs obtained by Page Six captured Garner, the star of 13 Going on 30, arriving at Affleck’s rental home in Brentwood, California, on Thursday, August 15. Dressed casually in a striped T-shirt and navy trousers, Garner appeared relaxed and at ease as she stopped by. She accessorized her look with simple jewelry and an Apple Watch.
The visit wasn’t out of the ordinary for the former couple, who have maintained a friendly co-parenting relationship since their divorce in 2018. Garner and Affleck share three children: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, and have often been seen together as they continue to raise their kids amicably.
While Garner’s visit was a familiar scene, JLo’s absence from Affleck’s birthday added fuel to the ongoing speculation that their marriage might be in trouble. Recently, Lopez celebrated her own birthday with a lavish Bridgerton-themed party in the Hamptons, notably without Affleck by her side. Their second wedding anniversary in July also passed with the couple spending time on opposite coasts, further raising questions about the state of their relationship.
Despite the swirling rumors, Affleck and Lopez have not publicly addressed the speculation, leaving fans and observers to wonder about the future of their marriage. Meanwhile, Affleck and Garner’s continued co-parenting efforts highlight their commitment to maintaining a stable environment for their children, regardless of their past or current relationships.
