Ben Affleck’s ex-wife Jennifer Lopez posted a new video on her JLo Beauty Instagram page on Friday. The 54-year-old diva was seen completely makeup-free, with her hair pulled back and wearing lingerie in a bathroom.
Ben still had his wedding ring on. The Atlas actress spoke about the importance of staying out of the sun and wearing sunscreen.
In the new clip, her wedding ring with Affleck is seen.
Lopez has not been photographed with Affleck in nearly 50 days, most recently attending his son Samuel’s basketball game in Los Angeles.
Ben has three children, Violet, 18, Finn, 15, and Samuel, 12, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner. JLo, meanwhile, has twins Max and Emme, 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
This comes after DailyMail.com learned that the combined five children have been working behind the scenes to get Jennifer and Ben “back together,” a source said.
“The kids believe Jennifer and Ben are truly and deeply in love, like soulmates, and they don’t want them to divorce,” the source said.
‘They want to work out their issues, both for better and worse, as they say in their vows. And they believe that they should continue to consult each other and talk about the matter, even if it is painful.
“They feel that if they do and say the right things there could be more peace.”

The kids want Ben and Jennifer to get back together before her 55th birthday on July 24, the source added.
“There is hope that they will all be able to celebrate a quiet family holiday together in Los Angeles,” the source added.
What exactly are they doing to help movie stars find peace? “They are highlighting the positive attributes each one has.”
And the source said there’s a general feeling that Ben might be able to relax.
“He’s a touchy-feely guy, he can be grumpy, that’s true, he’s not a happy-go-lucky guy, although he’s very smart and funny. The kids are trying to get him to relax and let things go,” the source added.
It turns out Lopez has his flaws too: “He needs to work less and relax more.”
The twins’ father, Marc Anthony, has always said Jenny needs to relax and enjoy her life more, telling her to do just that for years and years.
“Now Max and Emme are doing the same,” the source added.
The children have another reason: they all love each other and want to continue being a family.

“The kids get along really well, especially Emme and Fin, they are best friends and talk every day,” the source said.
‘They tell Ben and Jenny: ‘Don’t give up, don’t lose this.’
The family hasn’t been all together in one room since June, when Samuel graduated from high school.
The source added that the divorce was supposed to be announced on the 4th of July weekend, but it never happened. And that’s why they both still wear their wedding rings.
“There could be a delay or plans to split up for good could be cancelled, no one is really sure now, not even their closest friends really know,” a friend said.
“Everyone was waiting for the bombshell news that they had hired a lawyer and were ready to split up, but it hasn’t come,” the source said.
As for what Ben’s ex-wife Garner thinks, she’s willing to do what’s best for the kids.
“She’s a supermom and always puts the kids first, so if the kids want Ben and Jennifer to get back together, she’s all for it,” another source said.
Ben and Jennifer appear to be separated as they have not been photographed together in over a month, but neither has released a statement; spotted together in February.
Meanwhile, We weekly said Wednesday that there is “a small hope” that Ben and Jennifer can get back together.
“Jennifer suggested they just take their time to work it out,” the source said.
It was also added that Bennifer 2.0 “has not yet made a decision” regarding the split.
“They’re going through a lot individually and as a couple,” another source told Us. “It may take a while for them to see if this difficult time resolves and they become better people again.”
This comes after the news that The Batman actor, 51, and the Maid in Manhattan star, 54, decided to put the Beverly Hills mansion on the public market for $68 million “very recently” and are hoping for a buyer as soon as possible, a source said. We Weekly on Saturday.
“They thought they could sell it off the market, but made a last-minute decision to get more people to see the property,” the source said.

“They are in a hurry to sell it. Ben, above all, wants to be done with the house. He was never happy there.”
The source said the couple “never felt comfortable” in the sprawling 38,000-square-foot property, which features 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms.
“They rarely have all the kids there at once, so it was a very special thing for the two of them,” they continued.
The source added: “Nothing has been decided yet regarding the divorce, but selling the house is the first step.”
The Bennifer listing is managed by Santiago Arana of The Agency, the real estate agency owned by reality TV star Mauricio Umansky.
The home is now listed as “for sale” on Zillow for the reported price of $68 million.
Jennifer and Ben have reportedly been living apart for ‘months’ amid speculation they are headed for divorce.
Ben, who is still wearing his wedding ring, has been residing in a $100,000-a-month rental home near his ex-wife Garner, 52.
He was reportedly seen moving his belongings out of the Beverly Hills home he once shared with Lopez in late June, according to PEOPLE.
“Ben is still living in the rental house in Brentwood. He’s been there for about two months,” a source told the outlet at the time.
“He seems to be doing well. He’s been in his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his children.”
Neither Jen nor Ben wanted to keep their marital home for different reasons: she thought it was too big and he thought it was too far from their children.
A source previously said that PEOPLEBen never liked the house. It’s too far away from his children.
Meanwhile, Lopez feels the 12-bedroom home is simply “too big for her.”
Jennifer and Ben purchased the mansion and paid cash for it after two years of searching for their dream home in what was supposed to be a fairytale ending to their decade-long love story.
But the couple have been leading separate lives for the past few months after tying the knot at Ben’s estate in Georgia on August 21, 2022.
