Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who were married just two years ago, announced their separation in April 2024.
The split reportedly hit Lopez hard, and she filed for divorce soon after.
In an unexpected twist, the pair was seen on a date less than a month later.
Joined by their children from previous relationships,
they were spotted at a restaurant in the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Photos captured by paparazzi showed the couple in what looked like a serious conversation. The reasons for their meeting and the status of their relationship remain unclear. In some pictures, Affleck seemed frustrated with the photographers, while in others, the two appeared calm. Witnesses reported moments of both tension and affection between them.
