Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck aren’t letting their divorce get in the way of holiday cheer.
On December 22, the exes met up for a late lunch at Soho House in Los Angeles, where they allegedly exchanged holiday gifts, according to The Daily Mail. In photos of their arrivals, Lopez stayed comfortable in her 2024 fall uniform, pairing light-wash, wide-leg jeans with yet another platform shoe, though she traded her usual turtleneck for an oversized cream and black Fair Isle cardigan. It seems Lopez has built quite the collection of festive sweaters over the years.
For his part, Affleck utilized the sandwich technique, pairing a light blue sweater with his Nike sneakers, finishing off the look with grey jeans, a black wool coat. You can see the photos here.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have reunited on multiple occasions since the 55-year-old singer filed for divorce from the 52-year-old actor in August. Just this month, the former couple, as well as Ben Affleck’s ex-wife Jennifer Garner, were spotted together while supporting their respective children in a school play.
“[Jennifer’s] trying to be friendly with Ben,” a source told People after the blended family was spotted at their first post-divorce outing in September. “They all came together for a fun lunch so the kids could hang out.”
Lopez shares 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Affleck and Garner share three children. “A divorce is never easy, but Jennifer [Lopez] doesn’t want to be selfish about it,” the source continued. “The kids always got along and have fun together. It makes her happy seeing the kids happy together. Happy kids are her priority.”
Though Lopez filed for divorce in August, she listed their date of separation as April 26. While the internet was speculating about the state of their marriage, the pair spent much of the summer on opposite coasts. “This summer, I had to be like, ‘I need to go off and be on my own. I want to prove to myself that I can do that,’” Lopez told comedian Nikki Glaser for Interview in October.
