Jennifer Lopez appeared to have removed the meaningful tattoo she got in honor of Ben Affleck last year, as seen during her appearance at TIFF in a revealing dress that showed her bare sides.

In February 2023, the "Argo" star and the "Jenny From the Block" singer marked their first Valentine's Day as a married couple by getting matching "commitment" tattoos.

Lopez's tattoo featured an infinity symbol — placed on her left ribcage — with "Jennifer" on one end and "Ben" on the other, and an arrow through the middle.

However, the tattoo was notably absent when Lopez attended the premiere of her new film, "Unstoppable," last week.

The 55-year-old arrived at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival in a daring Tamara Ralph gown, which had fully open sides tied with black velvet bows.

The bold mirrorball-style dress gave a clear view of Lopez's left ribcage, where her tattoo was no longer visible.

Though it’s uncertain whether she permanently removed the tattoo or simply covered it with makeup, the "Marry Me" actress clearly didn’t want it to be seen amid her split from Affleck.

It's also unknown if Affleck has removed his "commitment" tattoo, which featured two overlapping arrows with a "J" and "B" inscribed between them.

Lopez, on the other hand, complemented her metallic dress with towering heels in the same shade, a Judith Leiber clutch, and Hassanzadeh diamonds — and spoke about her daring outfit.

The "Selena" actress told People she "felt good" in the striking outfit, which she had been debating wearing before making a final decision.

"There was a discussion about whether I should or shouldn’t. And I was like, f—k it," she said with a laugh.

While Lopez walked the red carpet alone, Ben Affleck's close friend Matt Damon was also at the festival.

Damon and Affleck supported the film through their production company, Artists Equity, but the "Gone Girl" actor missed the event to spend time with his children — and to avoid a potentially awkward encounter with his ex.

Despite her divorce from the "Accountant" actor, Lopez and Damon appear to still have a positive relationship.
