Could the iconic Bennifer be on the rocks? As news outlets continue to report on the couple, rumors of a possible breakup are gaining momentum. While some fans express sadness about the potential split, others are less surprised, believing that it was bound to happen.

The recent developments only add to the mounting speculation. Affleck has been spotted driving alone in Los Angeles, leaving a separate house where he has been staying. He was also seen on solo outings, unrelated to the $60 million Beverly Hills estate he shares with Lopez. These instances of them being apart have not gone unnoticed by fans and the media.

Fans have taken to social media to express their thoughts on the situation. Some are in denial and refuse to believe the breakup rumors, while others see it as a possibility. One user pointed out that this was Lopez’s fourth marriage, questioning the truthfulness of her vows. On the other hand, hopeful fans expressed their desire for things to work out between them.

Adding to the tension, Affleck and Lopez have not been seen together in public for over a month. The last time they were photographed was holding hands in New York City. Since then, they have been busy with individual commitments, with Lopez promoting her movie and attending the Met Gala, while Affleck was filming his upcoming movie.

The lack of public appearances together raises further doubts about the state of their relationship. Fans have noticed the strain on Lopez’s face during the Met Gala and speculated about the reasons behind it. Social media users have also commented on the couple’s absence at each other’s important events.

While neither Lopez nor Affleck has confirmed or denied the breakup rumors, signs of tension in their relationship are hard to ignore. Lopez’s recent social media activity, liking a post about relationships that resonates with her situation, has sparked curiosity. Additionally, in the past, Lopez has been open about her anxiety and the emotional scars from their previous relationship.

Despite the challenges they’ve faced, Lopez and Affleck have been determined not to let their past overshadow their current romance. They have professed their maturity in handling the situation. However, only time will tell if they can overcome their difficulties and sustain their relationship.
