Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck faked it for MONTHS after secret cut up

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck secretly split earlier this year but continued to kept up appearances as if they were still a couple for several months.

The pair were spotted on a number of public outings together, including their very last one on June 2, after they had already decided to go their separate ways two months earlier.

At the time, they were seen greeting each other warmly, even appearing to give each other a kiss, as they attended Affleck’s 12-year-old son Samuel’s basketball game in Santa Monica.

Lopez and Affleck also appeared to be in high spirits while leaving together even though, as it is now revealed, they had already secretly called it off on April 26. 

The revelation comes after Lopez officially filed for divorce from Affleck on Tuesday, August 20 — which is perhaps not-so-coincidentally the second anniversary of their second wedding ceremony.

The couple first sparked separation rumors when they had gone 47 days without being seen together. 

Split speculation continued as they did not spend a number of holidays over the summer together and Lopez also walked the red carpet alone at the Met Gala in May — which was also when Lopez called off her world tour ‘to be with her family.’ 

Since then, the pair have been spending summers on opposite coasts and did not spend their anniversary together.

In recent months, however, the pair have been spotted out together on a number of occasions as they had been trying to rekindle their romance

After being noticed without their wedding rings on several outings, they also started making it noticeable that they were wearing their tokens of commitment. 

Lopez was seen paying Affleck a special visit on his birthday at his rental property in Brentwood, California.
