Ben Affleck was seen driving alone in Los Angeles in the morning, and the 51-year-old had his left hand out of the window, showing his ring finger. Jennifer, on the other hand, wore her ring as she arrived at an L.A. dance studio. She looked prepared for some dance action in dark blue sweatpants and a cropped blue sweater top.

Soon after, they were also spotted buying flowers together!

The couple hasn't been seen together in public since March 30 when they were spotted out in New York. Jennifer added to the speculation when she liked an Instagram post from March 19 about healthy relationships.

What happened?

There seems to be trouble in paradise for Hollywood stars Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. The couple tied the knot on July 16, 2022. Now, ahead of their second anniversary, reports have surfaced that the two have decided to end their marriage. According to reports, Ben Affleck has also moved out of the house he had been living with Lopez.

A source told In Touch Weekly, "The writing is on the wall - it's over. They're headed for a divorce - and for once, [Ben's] not to blame!"

It has not gone unnoticed that been and Jennifer have not been spending time together or being spotted together in public. 47 days to be precise, since they were publicly photographed, reports People. Ben also gave the MET Gala a miss which was co-chaired by Lopez. Ben's official excuse for missing the Met Gala was that he was busy filming 'The Accountant 2', but In Touch's source says he "decided to call it quits" on his marriage to the A-list singer.

"He's focusing on his work and his kids now," the insider adds. "Ben already moved out and they'll likely have to sell the dream house they spent two years searching for. They'll never stop loving each other, but she can't control him, and he can't change her. There's no way it could have lasted."

Reportedly, the reason for their decision to part is their approach in handling the spotlight on them and their relationship.
