Johnathan Walker:Ben Affleck Debuts Hair Transformation Amid Jennifer Lopez Breakup Rumors

Ben Affleck has given himself a new edge.

On July 24, Affleck closed escrow on a five-bedroom estate in Los Angeles, while Lopez finalized the sale of her New York City penthouse that same day. The date also marked Lopez’s 55^th birthday, which she celebrated with a Bridgerton-themed bash in the Hamptons, while the Oscar winner remained on the opposite coast.

The stars previously listed their Beverly Hills estate for $68 million. They also spent their second wedding anniversary apart, choosing not to mark the occasion on social media.

The Hustlers star, who shares twins Max and Emme, 16, with ex-husband, Marc Anthony, previously canceled her This Is Me Live Tour to spend time with family amid the split rumors.

“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” Lopez previously told her fans in a statement on her On the J.Lo newsletter. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”

Affleck and Lopez were last spotted together in May, attending the graduation of his and ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s daughter, Violet Affleck. While the pair have not commented on where they stand, Lopez proved it’s all love when it comes to their blended family as she shared a video of her and the 18-year-old hanging out in the Hamptons earlier this month.
