Rumors are swirling around about the status of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s relationship. The constant press attention has left Jennifer feeling hounded, especially when it comes to questions about their marriage. However, she handled the situation with grace during a press event in Mexico City.
While promoting her latest movie ‘Atlas’ on May 22, Jennifer was confronted by a reporter who asked her about the rumors surrounding her marriage. The reporter went as far as to ask, “What is the truth?” and directed the question to the Mexican press. The tension in the room was palpable.
Thankfully, J Lo’s co-star, Simu Liu, came to her defense, stating, “We’re not doing that. Thank you so much, guys.” Jennifer laughed it off initially but let the reporter know that their question was off-limits by saying, “You know better than that.” Simu chimed in, urging the reporter to change their approach, saying, “Don’t come in with that energy, please.”
Simu took the opportunity to highlight Jennifer’s incredible qualities as a producer and as a person. He emphasized that she genuinely cares about representation and diversity, making it clear that Jennifer is a force to be reckoned with in the industry.
Despite all the speculation and rumors, it’s essential to remember that relationships go through ups and downs. Sources close to Jennifer recently shared with The Post that the couple is “taking time apart,” and People magazine reported that the marriage “is not in the best place at the moment.”
Adding fuel to the fire, Ben Affleck has been playing coy with the paparazzi. On an outing in Los Angeles, he mischievously hid his left hand from photographers who were eager to capture a glimpse of his ring finger. Ben has been known to switch between wearing his wedding ring on his right and left hands, keeping everyone guessing about the true state of their relationship.

It’s clear that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are facing some challenges in their marriage. Like any relationship, they have their ups and downs, but it’s important to respect their privacy during this time. Let’s hope they can navigate these difficulties and come out stronger on the other side.
