Violet Affleck wears Jennifer Lopez's dress amid divorce speculation between Ben Affleck and Lopez
Violet Affleck, the 18-year-old daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, was recently seen wearing a dress previously worn by her stepmother, Jennifer Lopez. The dress, a two-toned Dolce & Gabbana wrap, was famously worn by Lopez during a Valentine’s Day dinner with Ben Affleck in 2023. Violet paired the chiffon dress with unlaced sneakers and white gym socks during a lunch outing in Los Angeles with Lopez’s twins, Max and Emme.
In contrast, Lopez had styled the same dress with a Dolce & Gabbana belt and diamond stud earrings for her romantic date with Affleck, which took place just months before rumors of marital discord began to surface. Sources have indicated that Ben and Jennifer Lopez, who have not been seen together for months, are reportedly preparing to file for divorce. According to Page Six, Ben has delayed the filing in an effort to "protect" Lopez, though the pair are allegedly no longer on speaking terms.
Violet's fashion choice comes amid reports that Lopez’s inner circle has long harbored reservations about Affleck. An insider revealed to Page Six, "He’s humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of a record; they’re not young kids."
Lopez's close friend and longtime manager Benny Medina is reportedly among those who disapprove of Affleck, with sources claiming that the two "can’t stand each other." Despite the tension, Violet, along with her siblings Fin and Samuel, have been spending time with both of their parents as the family navigates these challenging dynamics.
