Are Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Still Wearing Their Wedding Rings Amid Ongoing Marital ‘Issues’?

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck might be weathering a storm in their two-year marriage but each of them is still wearing their wedding rings, as documented in photos this week.

“They started having issues a few months ago as Jen had started ramping up work commitments and prepping for her tour,” a source told Us Weekly exclusively on May 16, noting that Lopez, 54, is “is very focused on work.”

The insider added: “They are on two completely different pages most of the time.”

Questions about the status of Lopez and Affleck’s relationship rose after the two were not photographed together for 47 days. Both Lopez and Affleck attended respective events — he was at Netflix’s The Roast of Tom Brady in Los Angeles while she attended the Met Gala in NYC solo — without each other, raising some eyebrows. (In Touch obtained a photo of them together at a family event on May 16.)
