As a long-time fan and admirer of Jennifer Lopez, I must say that her journey through life is nothing short of extraordinary. The news about her supporting the movie “Unstoppable” resonates deeply with me because it speaks to her unwavering dedication to uplifting stories that inspire us all.


On Saturday, Jennifer Garner took some well-deserved personal time, while Ben Affleck, her former spouse, spent the weekend with their youngest children instead.

On a Saturday afternoon, the 52-year-old actress was seen exiting the UCLA Blood Donation Center, situated close to her residence in Brentwood, sporting a bandage on her arm.

Instead of going for high-fashion, she chose comfort over style, donning blue denim pants, a simple black shirt, and green athletic sneakers.

To complete her afternoon look, the Family Switch star donned fashionable dark sunglasses and slung a backpack across her shoulders as well.

Currently, Ben, age 52, savored a meal out with his children Samuel, 12, and Fin (previously known as Seraphina), 15, from his relationship with Jennifer Garner, following their ongoing divorce. Notably, this gathering took place in Brentwood, avoiding any potential encounter with Ben’s estranged wife, Jennifer Lopez, age 55.

For the outing, the actor opted for a casual look featuring a plain white tee, blue denims, and a stylish pair of sneakers with hues of purple and white.

Samuel rocked a Yale t-shirt, plaid sweatpants, and are crocs. 

Meanwhile Fin wore a blue sweatshirt, shorts, and colorful socks.

The trio also bumped into NBA star Russell Westbrook on the way. 

Affleck and the athlete shared a friendly chat and a hug. 

Affleck and Garner also share firstborn daughter Violet, 18. 

From 2005 to 2018, I was blessed with a long and lasting marriage that outshone my previous two-year union with Lopez in duration.

After Affleck managed to avoid an encounter with Lopez last Friday evening, since she went to the Toronto debut of their latest movie, ‘Unstoppable’, which was co-produced by Affleck along with his longtime friend Matt Damon.

For several months, there were intense rumors about the Hollywood pair’s marriage being at risk, with their union seemingly teetering on the brink. This speculation peaked when Jennifer officially filed for divorce on their second wedding anniversary, which fell on August 20th.

Despite being present for the group photos alongside Lopez, who made a bold statement in a striking silver dress that revealed quite a bit, Affleck chose not to attend the glitzy gathering and instead stayed comfortably at his residence in California.

Prior to the premiere, he was seen making a phone call inside his vehicle, his face lighting up with laughter throughout the apparently cheerful discussion.

On that particular evening, Jennifer demonstrated to him the allure he had been unaware of, donning a stunning silver gown boasting high slits on either side, showcasing her long legs and subtly revealing her backside.

At the afterparty, she had an amusing conversation with her colleague Bobby Cannavale. During their talk, it was overheard that she confessed to him, “I seem to make poor choices.

At a high volume, the music was playing, causing Cannavale to appear as if he didn’t hear her the first time she spoke. So, she had to say it again, making sure he understood.

After he eventually understood her message, she began to chuckle and remarked: ‘Things are what they are,’ as captured by The Hollywood Reporter.

Two and a half weeks following the divorce filing, which coincided with their second wedding anniversary, her new look was unveiled.

Although concluding her fourth marriage, a source informed DailyMail.com that the singer of Let’s Get Loud was eager to attend the Toronto Film Festival to publicize this movie as Unstoppable holds great significance for her; she wishes to lend her support to it.

The insider remarked that this is an incredibly inspiring real-life tale, and she feels honored to be involved. For her, being a part of the film was a remarkable peak in her career.

As a connoisseur of all things cinematic, I’ve noticed that the latest film on everyone’s lips has been generating quite a buzz. The talented Jennifer, who I have the pleasure of knowing, is deeply invested in its success. Her unwavering commitment to her craft and tireless work ethic ensure she consistently provides her films with the best possible chances for greatness.

Lopez has a supporting part as a wrestler’s mother in the movie, which already has Oscar buzz.

In recent weeks, following his divorce announcement, it’s said that Ben has been seen socializing with RFK Jr.’s daughter, Kick.

Previously, he had a short romance with Kick; however, he later restarted his strained marriage with Lopez, according to recent reports.

It appears that sources close to the situation have disclosed to DailyMail.com that Kick and Ben are currently spending a lot of quality time with each other. However, the writer is choosing to keep silent on the nature of their relationship to avoid being perceived as involved romantically.

Currently, Lopez is managing as best as she can, despite not wanting a divorce from the actor, according to a recent report in People.

According to the source, it has been immensely challenging for her because Ben decided to end their marriage and pursue a new life path, leaving her alone in the process.

Jennifer requested no spousal support from her ex, and she asked the court to deny it for Ben.

She listed the date of their separation as April 26.

Jennifer and Ben had a private wedding on July 16, 2022, but they held a larger celebration on August 20, 2022, at Ben’s estate in South Carolina, inviting family and friends – exactly two years to the day before she filed for divorce.

In late 2002, they became engaged, but ended their engagement a year later. Eventually, they permanently ended their relationship in 2004.
