JLo celebrates July 4th in Hamptons amid marital tension with Ben Affleck

JLo and Ben Affleck has been under scrutiny due to reported marital tension, leading them to live separately.

Jennifer Lopez celebrated the Fourth of July in the Hamptons, enjoying time with friends and family while sporting her wedding ring. The multi-talented artist was seen shopping for plants with her manager, Benny Medina, shortly after returning from a European vacation. Meanwhile, her husband Ben Affleck spent the holiday in Los Angeles with his children.

The couple has been under scrutiny due to reported marital tension, leading them to live separately. However, they have maintained a united front at recent family gatherings, including Affleck's daughter Violet's graduation.

Lopez, who recently canceled her summer tour to prioritize time with loved ones, shared an Instagram video with her daughter Emme, seemingly en route to the Hamptons. The location is a popular celebrity hotspot, known for hosting Michael Rubin's annual star-studded Independence Day bash, which the couple attended last year.

While Lopez has been busy with film and production projects, Affleck has focused on work and spending time with his kids in LA. A source revealed to PEOPLE that the couple is "doing their own thing" this summer, with Lopez enjoying her time in Europe and Affleck prioritizing his family in LA.

Despite the distance and challenges, the couple appears to be navigating their relationship with a focus on their respective priorities and commitments.
