Jennifer Lopez Shares Sultry Pics Without Wedding Ring Amid Divorce Rumors with Ben Affleck
Jennifer Lopez has recently sparked intrigue and speculation with her latest social media post, where she is noticeably without her wedding ring. This comes amid reports that she and husband Ben Affleck are facing potential divorce proceedings.
In a stunning Instagram post shared on Wednesday, Lopez celebrated her 55th birthday with a sultry mirror selfie, showcasing her toned figure in a plunging white one-piece swimsuit. She accessorized with gold jewelry, including hoop earrings, bangles, and a large ring, but her wedding band was conspicuously absent. She captioned the photo with, "This Is Me...Now [birthday cake emoji]."
This post follows a series of public appearances where both Lopez and Affleck have been seen without their wedding rings, fueling rumors that their marriage is in trouble. According to TMZ, Lopez was last seen wearing her wedding band on Monday in the Hamptons, New York. Conversely, Affleck was spotted without his ring on Sunday in Los Angeles, where he remains despite Lopez’s birthday celebrations.

The couple, who tied the knot in a Las Vegas ceremony just two years ago, have been at the center of divorce rumors for several months. In May, Affleck reportedly moved out of their Beverly Hills home, which has since been listed for sale. His absence was also noted at the premiere of Lopez’s latest film, "Atlas," and the two have not been photographed together for over a month, including missing her "Bridgerton"-themed birthday party last Saturday.
An unnamed source told Fox News Digital that the couple is "not getting back together" and is "not trying to work it out." However, a more recent report from the Daily Mail suggests that Lopez and Affleck are attempting to give their marriage another chance. According to an insider, the couple was "ready to throw in the towel" with "divorce papers done and ready to be filed," but decided to make one last effort to salvage their relationship.
The source mentioned that the "On the Floor" singer and the "Justice League" star are trying to rekindle their romance by revisiting the early days of their relationship, which included writing letters to each other. "This is what made them fall in love in the first place," the insider noted.
Lopez's bold social media presence and Affleck's conspicuous absence from her birthday celebration have only added to the speculation about the status of their marriage. Despite the rumors and apparent distance, the couple seems determined to give their relationship another try, as they navigate through a highly publicized and tumultuous period.
