Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s latest public appearance has left the internet buzzing with questions about their relationship status. The couple was spotted sharing an awkward kiss in Santa Monica, California, on Sunday, amid swirling rumours of a possible split.
The pair attended Affleck’s 12-year-old son Samuel’s basketball game, according to a report from Page Six. Social media users quickly picked up on the apparent awkwardness of their interaction, fueling further speculation about the state of their relationship.
Jennifer Lopez, who recently announced the cancellation of her summer tour to spend more time with her family, was seen wearing a black full-sleeve top and blue jeans. Ben Affleck sported a pink t-shirt, red sweatshirt, cranberry-hued corduroy jacket, and faded jeans. Despite the speculation, the couple appeared to be in good spirits, smiling and engaging with each other.
Affleck’s mother, Anne Boldt, also joined them at the game. The couple exchanged air kisses and greetings outside the venue, near the parking lot of the YMCA. Jennifer Garner, Affleck’s ex-wife, was also spotted at the game.
Reactions to the new pictures varied, with some users on X commenting on the awkwardness of the interaction. “They should have rehearsed this better. A happily married couple is not going to be acting like former college buddies who randomly ran into each other at Whole Foods,” one user wrote. Another commented, “It’s a friendship thing… kissing on the cheek.”
This sighting comes amid ongoing reports that all is not well between the couple. On May 31, Jennifer Lopez announced the cancellation of her This Is Me… Now tour, expressing her heartbreak and promising to make it up to her fans.
“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. 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,” she wrote in a statement.
As rumours continue to circulate, fans and media alike are closely watching the couple’s next moves.
