Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s marriage may be in jeopardy, but the loved-up couple certainly stays united when it comes to their kids, which shows just how great their co-parenting is. After being apart during their 12-year-old son Samuel’s graduation ceremony, the couple was present at the party at their rented property in Brentwood. JLo looked very happy, with Affleck’s ex-wife Garner also in attendance.
Jen and Ben reunite for their son’s graduation party
On Wednesday, June 12, the singer was spotted arriving at Affleck’s new rental property in Brentwood, California, where he is reportedly staying after moving out of their shared mansion about a month ago. The new property is near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s home, and it looked to be a family affair, as Garner was spotted there shortly after. There were no signs of any of the kids being there, but it’s likely they were there as well.

Jennifer Lopez refuses to stay overnight
The Jenny From the Block singer arrived wearing a blue button-up shirt with rolled-up sleeves, white jeans and white Louboutin chunky heels, but she didn’t look down at all. TMZ reported that after celebrating until late into the night, she left her husband’s house without stopping by. This matches up with photos captured by cameras earlier in the ceremony, where Ben and Jen kept their distance and arrived separately. The two also avoided being photographed together despite being under the same roof.
Meanwhile, Garner arrived at the party in a casual outfit – a light blue button-up shirt, a short green coat, black pants and loafers. The Accountant 2 star kept it formal in a classic blue suit and white dress shirt. JLo previously brought her twins Max, 16, and Emme (from her marriage to Marc Anthony) to Samuel’s graduation ceremony. Meanwhile, the 13 Going On 30 star also shares children Violet, 18, and Seraphina, 15, with Affleck. See Photos here

Bennifer played the wedding band at her son’s graduation
While Jen has never been spotted without her wedding band, Ben has been spotted without his band several times. Reports suggest that the newlyweds are working through some issues. Adding fuel to the fire, they are selling their beautiful $60 million love nest, which appeared on a real estate website a few days ago.
However, a source close to them revealed that they are selling their marital mansion because Affleck ‘never liked the house.’ Meanwhile, amid these developments, the pop star cancelled her million-dollar LA residency scheduled for 2025. While some reports attribute the reason to low ticket sales, sources close to Jen suggest that she wants to prioritise her family at present.
