Jennifer Lopez Photographed for First Time Since Filing for Divorce from Ben Affleck

The ‘This Is Me… Now’ singer filed for divorce from her husband of two years on Aug. 20, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split

Jennifer Lopez was photographed publicly for the first time since filing for divorce from her now-estranged husband, Ben Affleck.

On Friday, Aug. 30, Lopez, 55, was snapped stepping out of her car as she arrived at an event in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The This Is Me… Now singer was dressed stylishly yet casually, sporting a white cutout halter top, wide-leg denim pants, pink-tinted sunglasses and chunky high heels. She accessorized her summer look with a crocodile handbag and lots of jewelry, including rings and gold and silver bracelets.

Lopez’s public outing comes 10 days after she filed for divorce from Affleck, 52, on Aug. 20 after two years of marriage. In her filing, Lopez cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split, and indicated that she did not want either half of the former couple to be awarded spousal support.

Last week, Lopez made her first post on social media since the divorce filing, when she reshared a festive selfie image from a fan page on her Instagram Stories on Friday, Aug. 23.

In the snap, Lopez posed for a glamorous photo while rocking voluminous blonde hair and a blush two-piece look, with a large Christmas tree in the background.

Lopez and Affleck tied the knot in Las Vegas on July 17, 2022, nearly two decades after they were previously engaged in the early 2000s before calling it quits days before their wedding. In August 2022, they also hosted a lavish wedding ceremony in Savannah, Ga., to celebrate their Las Vegas nuptials.

Two years later, Lopez filed for divorce on the second anniversary of her and Affleck’s Southern wedding after spending much of the summer apart. The former couple did not have a prenuptial agreement.

Last week, on Thursday, Aug. 22, a source told PEOPLE that the pair had good intentions when rekindling their romance, stating that Lopez and Affleck “really loved each other — and it happened quickly.”

“They were really going to give it a try, and they did,” the source said, speaking about the now-exes’ decision to get back together after so many years apart. “These are two people who are in love with love, and who wouldn’t jump into that? And the world wanted it.”

“She tried really hard to make things work and is heartbroken,” the source added. “The kids are a top priority, as they always have been.”

Lopez shares twins Max and Emme, 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, and Affleck shares three children — Violet, 18, Seraphina 15, and Samuel, 12 — with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
