In an attempt to keep family life on track for their kids, the I’m Real hitmaker, 55, joined forces with the Argo movie star, 52, for a day at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Yet travelling for their swanky lunch in the same vehicle, they looked stoney-faced, with Jennifer seen wiping something from her eye.

Dad-of-three Ben, wearing a bright blue shirt, appeared stern as he sat behind the wheel, with his ex staring at him.

As they arrived at the A-List hotel, they stayed close as they followed each other through the door with their brood.

Mum-of-two Jennifer, wearing a black cropped roll-neck jumper and flared jeans, was marshalling the group at the back of the pack.

She pulled on a pair of sunglasses and threw a large handbag over her shoulder as she stepped out on the understandably difficult day.

Yet her main accessory – which sent fans into a spiral of confusion – centred on the fact she was still wearing her wedding ring.

The diamond band could clearly be seen as she strolled with her hands outside of her pockets – yet she was wearing it on her little finger.

On her ring finger, she donned a gold band bearing her name.

The family outing came came after chart star Jennifer was seen donning a “revenge dress” to promote the recent movie she made with Ben.

The couple, affectionately dubbed ‘Bennifer’, tied the knot in Vegas in 2022.

In August this year, JLo filed legal documents in Los Angeles County Superior Court pro per – meaning without an attorney.

The Atlas actress listed the date of separation as April 26, 2024.

Ironically, the date of the filing, August 20, is the second anniversary of the ex-couple’s traditional wedding ceremony they held in Georgia.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck relationship timeline

JLo and Ben were first linked together in 2002 and became engaged later that year. However, they called off the wedding just two years later. They rekindled their romance in 2021 and finally got hitched in 2022 before filing for divorce this year. Here is a timeline of their love story:

June 2002 – Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli and JLo divorced from her second husband Cris Judd
November 2002 – Ben proposed to JLo with a six-carat pink diamond ring
September 2003 – JLo and Ben called off their wedding and blamed it on ‘excessive media attention’
January 2004 – The celebrity couple announce they are heading separate ways
July 2021 – JLo posts an intimate photo of herself beside Ben and they begin dating again
April 2022 – Ben proposes to JLo for a second time
July 2022 – The celebrity couple officially celebrated their nuptials in a Las Vegas, Nevada, ceremony
August 2022 – Ben and JLo have a second A-list wedding at their $8.9million George estate
February 2023 – Ben and JLo go viral after she is seen appearing to scold him at the Grammy Awards as the camera swung by their table, while photos often showed him looking exhausted and miserable on outings with his wife.
May 2024 – Divorce rumors began to swirl with sources alleging they were not compatible and Ben was sick of marriage.
July 2024 – The pair publicly listed their new marital home for $68 million and it was reported they were living separately in new properties.
August 2024 – JLo finally filed for divorce on their second wedding anniversary on August 20.

In the documents, Jennifer did not mention whether or not the pair had a prenuptial agreement but sources with knowledge told TMZ the pair didn’t have one in place.

That means whatever earnings or profit Jen and Ben made during their nearly two-year marriage is community property.

In 2020, Forbes listed Jennifer’s net worth as $150 million.

As of August 1, Celebrity Net Worth has Ben’s net worth equaling Jennifer’s at approximately $150 million.

According to the legal docs, Jennifer waived spousal support and has requested the judge to deny Ben such support as well.

The Jenny From The Block songstress recently appeared to “speak out” on the split with a thirst-trap image posted alongside a cryptic caption.

She uploaded a snap showing her in a thong swimsuit with the words: “Oh, it was a summer,” seemingly referring to her tumultuous season.
