Jennifer Lopez Shines at 'Atlas' Premiere Amid Split Speculation
Jennifer Lopez made a dazzling appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of her latest film, "Atlas," but noticeably absent was her partner Ben Affleck, further fueling speculation about their relationship status.
The iconic singer, 54, graced the red carpet solo, exuding elegance in a black-and-white ensemble. Despite Affleck's absence, Lopez sported a band on her left ring finger, adding a touch of mystery to the evening.
Throughout the event, Lopez posed for photos alongside her co-stars Simu Liu and Sterling K. Brown, as well as the film's director, Brad Peyton, captivating the audience with her radiant presence.
Rumors of a potential split between Lopez and Affleck first surfaced two weeks ago when Lopez attended the 2024 Met Gala without her partner, despite their significant roles as co-chairs of the event.
Subsequent reports from TMZ indicated that the couple was living separately, with Affleck reportedly residing in a home in LA's Brentwood neighborhood, a short distance from their shared Beverly Hills mansion.
Recent sightings have shown Affleck, 51, exploring potential new residences in the LA area, while Lopez was also spotted house-hunting, albeit for investment purposes.

Although neither Lopez nor Affleck has addressed the breakup rumors publicly, Lopez recently engaged with an Instagram post about unhealthy relationships, hinting at potential discord in their romance.
Amidst the swirling speculation, Affleck was seen without his wedding ring over the weekend before reuniting with Lopez and their blended family, showcasing a complex dynamic in their relationship.
Hours before the "Atlas" premiere, a source revealed exclusively to Page Six that Affleck has had a change of heart regarding their marriage, acknowledging the challenges they face.
"If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would," the insider disclosed. "He feels like the last two years were a blur, and he now realizes the impracticality of their union."
After a tumultuous history that included calling off their initial engagement in the early 2000s, Lopez and Affleck reignited their romance in 2021, culminating in a spontaneous Las Vegas elopement in 2022.
Despite their whirlwind romance, the couple faced hurdles, with Affleck reportedly reconsidering the feasibility of their relationship. As fans await further developments, the future of this high-profile couple remains uncertain.
