Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck appear to be keeping it cordial.

TMZ reports that the pair were seen in public on Thursday evening to attend Affleck’s son, Fin’s school play. The two came in separate cars, both bringing flowers for Fin, with Lopez's child, Emme, tagging along.

Lopez and Affleck spoke to each other, though they didn’t engage in any PDA. The two are still living apart, with the actor driving Lopez and Emme home to their family residence in Beverly Hills before going back to his Brentwood rental.

While it’s only been rumored that the couple are headed for divorce, they haven’t been photographed together in a month. Neither Lopez nor Affleck have confirmed a separation or impending divorce, and both are still wearing their wedding rings in public.

The couple have been making headlines as of late due to their separate living arrangements. Earlier this week, an anonymous source claimed to In Touch that Affleck and the singer have split.

"They’re headed for a divorce—and for once, [Ben’s] not to blame! 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,” the insider said. “He’s focusing on his work and his kids now."

The pair got married in 2022, though their history spans over 20 years, with them first dating from 2002 to 2004. They were also briefly engaged during that time, later reconciling in 2021. Lopez chronicled their reunion in her 2023 visual album, This Is Me… Now: A Love Story.
