The news comes as reports suggest that his wife, Jennifer Lopez, is also searching for her own property, as their jointly-owned $60 million mansion is up for sale.

Neither Affleck nor Lopez have commented directly on the rumors surrounding their relationship, leading to further speculation about their marital status. While spending the summer on opposite coasts, the couple has done little to dispel talk of their potential separation.

Hints of tension began to surface back in March when they were last publicly seen together during Easter weekend in New York City, where they were photographed holding hands. Since then, there have been few sightings of the couple. Notably, Lopez attended the Met Gala in May without Affleck, despite her co-chair role for the event, while he made a solo appearance at Netflix's Tom Brady roast in Los Angeles.

People magazine reported in May that it had been 47 days since the couple had been publicly spotted together, raising eyebrows among their fans. Us Weekly later claimed that there were issues in their marriage, but emphasized that a split was not on the horizon. Shortly after these reports, Affleck and Lopez were photographed together, both wearing their wedding rings.

However, signs of trouble persisted. Lopez liked an Instagram post about relationship red flags, and a source revealed to People in May that the couple was living separately in Los Angeles, with Affleck renting his own home.

The situation took an unusual turn when Lopez canceled her This Is Me...Live tour at the end of May, citing low ticket sales and the need to take time off for family. During this time, she was seen entering Affleck's rental home for a graduation party honoring his and Jennifer Garner's son.

As their second anniversary on June 12 came and went without any public acknowledgement from either party, speculation continued to mount. While Lopez enjoyed a vacation with friends in Italy, Affleck quietly moved his belongings out of their shared home, as reported by People.

Independence Day found the actors celebrating separately, with Lopez in the Hamptons and Affleck in Los Angeles. Notably, they were both seen wearing their wedding rings. On July 12, they officially listed their Beverly Hills mansion for sale, despite earlier reports suggesting that they had been privately trying to offload the property.

As Lopez turned 55 on July 24, she celebrated with a lavish Bridgerton-themed birthday party in the Hamptons, posting videos on Instagram expressing her joy. Meanwhile, on July 27, TMZ broke the news that Affleck had closed escrow on his new Brentwood mansion for $20.5 million, further fueling rumors of an impending divorce. The outlet claimed that Lopez was actively searching for her own property in Los Angeles.

As the summer progresses, the status of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's relationship remains uncertain. With their actions and lack of public statements raising questions, their fans and the media eagerly await any updates on their situation.
