Jennifer Lopez was spotted still wearing her wedding ring while dining with a mysterious man at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica on Saturday. The 54-year-old singer and actress is currently facing personal and professional turmoil, including a recently canceled tour and rumored marital issues with Ben Affleck. Despite swirling rumors of an impending divorce, Lopez kept her wedding ring on for the outing. She made a striking appearance in a see-through off-white dress with an open weave, showcasing her toned figure. With her caramel locks pulled back into a ponytail, she highlighted her luminous complexion with makeup. Her ensemble featured a thigh-high slit, revealing her toned legs, complemented by a pair of towering platform heels. Lopez accessorized with a matching leather handbag and large hoop earrings. This sighting comes amid reports that Lopez and Affleck have hired realtor Santiago Arana from The Agency to sell their $60 million Beverly Hills mansion, which they bought last year. The couple, reportedly living apart for weeks, purchased the residence after touring over 80 properties to find the perfect home for their blended family. Amid rumors of an imminent divorce, sources told TMZ that their realtor has been showing the house for around two weeks, with an asking price of $65 million. Despite significant investments in improvements, they might face a loss of millions of dollars.
TMZ also reported that Lopez is already searching for a new home while Affleck stays at a $100K-per-month rental in Brentwood, near his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. Earlier this week, DailyMail.com revealed that new photos of their marital home’s lavish interior appeared on realtor websites, suggesting the property is being quietly put back on the market. The couple’s $60 million mansion features a 17-bedroom, 43,000-square-foot main house, an additional 10,000-square-foot guest house, and extensive amenities, including a sports complex and a 150-degree zero-edge pool. Despite the recent turmoil, a representative for Lopez stated that the photos are not new, merely re-uploaded. Lopez and Affleck, who eloped to Las Vegas in July 2022 before celebrating their union with a grand ceremony in Georgia, have faced rumors of marital strife. Last week, Lopez canceled the US leg of her “This is Me Now” tour, citing the need to spend time with her children, family, and close friends, without mentioning her husband. She expressed her heartbreak and promised to make it up to her fans in the future. According to In Touch, the couple is currently in therapy, with Garner reportedly supporting their marriage. The pair has rarely been seen together in the past two months, with Lopez attending several significant events solo. A source told TMZ that Affleck missed the Met Gala due to filming commitments but attended Tom Brady’s roast the day before.
