Jennifer Lopez spotted looking strained amid tour cancellation and divorce rumors with Ben Affleck

‘Ben is not working as much by choice and she's overworking – so their priorities are different’ A source said

Jennifer Lopez was seen with a strained expression while being driven around Los Angeles, amid reports of personal and professional turmoil. The 54-year-old pop star is dealing with the fallout from a canceled tour and rumors of marital issues with her husband, Ben Affleck.

Lopez, who was a passenger in a white BMW 8 Series Convertible driven by a friend, appeared stressed, with her lips tightly pressed together and eyes hidden behind large sunglasses. Her appearance comes just three days after an awkward encounter with Affleck at his son's basketball game in Los Angeles. The couple shared an air kiss and appeared glum while later seen at a fast food drive-thru, adding to the speculation about their relationship.

The ‘Hustlers’ star recently canceled her U.S. tour, citing a desire to be with her family following the poor performance of her latest album and criticism of her Netflix movie ‘Atlas’. A source told People that despite their marital struggles, Lopez and Affleck "still want to put the kids first" and described the strain in their marriage as "heartbreaking for her."

Rumors of tension have been fueled by reports of Affleck clashing with Lopez's team over her career direction. A source told The Sun that Affleck believes Lopez is doing "a lot of mediocre projects" and is surrounded by "yes people" who make decisions for her. The source added, "Ben is not working as much by choice and she's overworking – so their priorities are different, even though she has been dedicated to her marriage and kids, she's very busy."

Lopez and Affleck, who married in 2022 after rekindling their romance in 2021, have been seen infrequently together in recent months. Page Six recently claimed that Affleck is considering ending their two-year marriage, attributing the decision to "temporary insanity." The couple's love story began in 2002, and they previously called off an engagement in 2004 before reuniting years later.

Despite the rumors, Lopez has been active in family events. She was seen at a farmer’s market with her child Emme earlier in the day before the basketball game, possibly explaining her separate arrival. Lopez also attended her stepdaughter Violet's graduation ceremony with Affleck and their respective children.

Lopez addressed her tour cancellation on her website, expressing her disappointment and promising to make it up to her fans. "Please know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel that it was absolutely necessary," she wrote. "I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time..."
