Ben Affleck was seen paying a weekend visit to ex, Jennifer Garner’s, home in L.A. on Sunday amid rumored marital woes with his wife, Jennifer Lopez.
The Oscar winner, 51 – who recently ‘moved his things out’ of the $60M mansion he shares with the On The Floor songstress, 54 – was spotted stepping out of a sleek vehicle while holding a book as well as a can of Diet Coke.
He dressed down in a pair of classic, denim jeans as well as a short-sleeved, printed gray shirt that had ‘Speed Motors Unlimited’ printed on the front.
The Good Will Hunting actor completed his ensemble for the outing by slipping into a pair of Nike sneakers.
Garner was also seen during the day after a coffee run and kept it casual in a pair of black, fitted leggings as well as a short-sleeved, blue shirt.

The 13 Going On 30 actress donned a pair of comfy, white sneakers while her dark locks were pulled back into a sleek ponytail.
To complete the overall ensemble, the mother-of-three sported a pair of stylish shades to protect her eyes from the bright sunshine.
Affleck and Garner were previously married from 2005 until their divorce was finalized in 2018.
The pair also welcomed three children during the course of their marriage: Violet, 18, Finn, 15 (formerly known as Seraphina), and also Samuel, 12.
Ben’s latest outing on Sunday comes amid swirling divorce rumors between himself and wife, Jennifer Lopez – whom he tied the knot with in July 2022.
The two stars are reportedly living separately, with the Atlas actress currently residing at their $60 million mansion and Affleck staying at a $100k-a-month rental in Brentwood.
Most recently, a source told People in an article published on Friday that the actor has ‘moved his things out’ of their lavish marital home.
‘Ben continues to live at the Brentwood rental. He’s been there for about two months now,’ the insider informed the outlet.

‘He seems okay. He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids.’
Lopez recently returned to the United States after whisking herself away for a solo trip to Italy.
During the summer getaway, the star was spotted spending time with close pals during a boat day on the water in Positano.
Earlier this week, she also made an appearance during Paris Fashion Week at the Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2024-2025 runway show.
She donned a one-shoulder, tan dress with a belt that wrapped around her midriff as well as a pair of open-toed, gold heels.
Jennifer completed the look by wearing elbow-length, black gloves and carried a stylish, black Dior purse in her hand.
And on Saturday, Lopez was seen grabbing lunch with her child Emme, 16, in Beverly Hills – but was not accompanied by her husband despite her return to California.
Amid circulating divorce rumors, Affleck and Lopez recently put the mansion they have shared together in Beverly Hills since 2023 on the market in early June for $65M.
‘He seems okay. He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids,’ the insider added; seen in 2023 in L.A.

The two appear to still be in contact and have business ties: Lopez is set to star in two upcoming movies for Affleck and Matt Damon’s production company. Those films are Unstoppable and Kiss Of The Spider Woman.
This comes a week after a source told DailyMail.com that Jennifer is ‘over’ trying to make her marriage with Ben work.
Amid rumors about the status of the couple’s marriage, an industry insider has now claimed that the pop star has reached her wit’s end and no longer feels that she can do any ‘more’ to save the relationship.
‘Jenny has had enough and she really tried but she can do no more, it’s not getting any better, it’s worse,’ a music industry source told DailyMail.com.
The insider add that the main reason J.Lo, left her husband was because he was always ‘grumpy and negative’ like Oscar The Grouch from Sesame Street.
Jennifer is sad about the end of her nuptials but ‘is trying to make the best of it by working out, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025,’ they went on.
One of those new plans is resuming her This Is Me… Live tour for the summer of 2025 when she turns 56. She canceled the 2024 tour that was scheduled to kick off in July in order to ‘recollect herself.’
‘She is excited about going on tour next year when her personal life is on calmer ground and she can connect with her fans. She will take her tribe with her and make the most of it,’ said the source.
Lopez is also said to be ‘shocked’ by the bad press she has been getting, which she believes is not fair.
‘If people could see what she has really gone through they would be easier on her,’ said the source.

‘Ben is a great guy but he can be grumpy and a downer. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn’t smile. If they saw how it really was, they would not attack her,’ said the friend of Jennifer.
‘He chain smokes and cusses and seems irritated a lot of the time. Great director and actor, but not a lot of laughs with him, you know?’ said the source. ‘He is a wonderful father though.’
However, the insider said that Lopez will ‘march on’ and added she ‘is a very smart and strong woman and she will bounce back, she always does!’
And as far as how Jennifer and Ben are getting along these days, the source said they are being ‘cordial’ with each other.
Meanwhile, Lopez cleared her schedule this summer to give herself some downtime to re-examine her life.
‘She is living alone and not with Ben, I think everyone knows that already, so that is a major change for her and the kids,’ said the pal.
‘Of course Jenny is sad, she loves Ben, but they are just too different, there is no give and take, there was no blending, they are just on separate tracks.’
The source added that Jennifer gave it her all: ‘She really tried hard to make it work, and it just did not work…’
Meanwhile, Jennifer has struck a new deal with Netflix via her company Nuyorican to adapt novel Happy Place by Emily Henry.
