Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Shut Down Breakup Rumors with PDA at Samuel Affleck's Basketball Game

In their ongoing effort to dispel breakup rumors, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were spotted engaging in some subtle PDA during a recent outing. The couple attended Samuel Affleck's basketball game at the YMCA in Hollywood, Calif., on June 2, where they were seen sharing affectionate moments.

Accompanied by Ben's mother, Chris Anne Boldt, and Ben's ex-wife Jennifer Garner, the duo made their way into the recreation center to support Samuel, who is Ben's son. For the outing, Ben sported a stylish red corduroy jacket with a fur-lined collar, paired with a red T-shirt featuring the phrase "The Dickens" and jeans. Jennifer, on the other hand, opted for a long-sleeved black T-shirt, jeans, and accessorized with a black handbag and brown tinted aviator sunglasses.

As cameras captured their every move, Jennifer even planted a sweet peck on Ben's cheek, further fueling speculation about their relationship. This public display of affection comes amidst a challenging time for Jennifer, as she recently announced the cancellation of her This Is Me...Live tour.

Addressing her fans in her OnTheLo newsletter, Jennifer expressed her disappointment and promised to make it up to them. The cancellation follows weeks of speculation about the couple living separately, but their joint appearances at family events, including one on May 31, indicate their commitment to each other.

Although they have yet to publicly comment on the status of their relationship, both Ben and Jennifer have acknowledged the immense scrutiny and pressure their previous engagement faced in 2004, causing them to call it off just before their wedding. This past experience has likely made them more cautious about discussing their personal lives.

The couple's journey together has been marked by various milestones and public appearances over the years. It began in 2001 when they met on the set of the film "Gigli." From red carpet debuts to attending premieres and supporting each other's projects, their relationship has had its ups and downs. However, they have managed to find their way back to each other, with Ben's recent engagement and subsequent wedding to Jennifer in July 2022.

Their love story continues to intrigue the public, and with their latest PDA outing, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are making it clear that they are still going strong despite the ongoing rumors. Fans eagerly await their next move as this Hollywood power couple continues to captivate the world with their undeniable chemistry.
