Jennifer Lopez successfully avoided an awkward run-in with Ben Affleck and his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, as all three attended the same event with their children. Despite the potential for tension, the trio managed to steer clear of each other, ensuring no direct interaction occurred, allowing the event to proceed smoothly for their families.
The Atlas actress, 55—who is reportedly “planning a major comeback” next year following her split from the Oscar winner, 52—was accompanied by one of her twins, Emme, 16, along with a few friends for the evening outing.
This appearance comes just two months after Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, coincidentally their second wedding anniversary.
The singer showcased her style in a light gray jumpsuit, cinched at the waist with a belt. She completed the look with open-toed nude pumps and let her long, wavy hair cascade past her shoulders, exuding effortless elegance.
Lopez carried a small, brown purse over her right shoulder to hold a few essentials. She kept her accessories minimal, letting the outfit take center stage, while adding a touch of elegance with an assortment of rings on each hand.
Jennifer made her way through a parking lot, accompanied by her daughter Emme and some friends, engaging in a lighthearted conversation. Lopez shares Emme and her twin brother Max, both 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, to whom she was married from 2004 to 2014.
Meanwhile, Ben Affleck was also spotted in the same area, walking alongside his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their child, Fin, 15. The former couple, who also share Samuel, 12, and Violet, 18, who is currently away at college, were seen walking side-by-side while chatting with others as they headed to their next destination.
Affleck kept his look casual, wearing light blue jeans, a red printed shirt, and a dark red jacket. Garner also opted for a relaxed style, donning denim jeans and a black sweater to stay warm in the cooler weather.
