The media frenzy around Jennifer Lopez has been at an all-time high recently due to rumors that she is separating from her husband, actor Ben Affleck. Now it seems the singer is in Italy on a vacation.
And some fans seem to be upset about her choice… Keep reading to learn more.
Jennifer Lopez was spotted in Positano, Italy, on Wednesday without her husband, Ben Affleck, or her children. The 54-year-old singer did not post about the vacation herself, but images and videos of her walking around the island surfaced in American media outlets.
While Lopez was without her family, she was accompanied by several friends. She was seen strolling around a resort before boarding a boat and sailing away.
This trip comes amid speculation that Lopez, 54, is experiencing marital issues with Affleck, 49. The couple, who married in a small ceremony in Las Vegas in July 2022, have been stepping out together on important occasions related to their kids to present a united front despite rumors of strife.
Some fans are unhappy with Lopez’s decision to vacation without her family. One fan commented, “Is this her spending more time with the family that desperately needs her more than the tour?” Another added sarcastically, “I’m glad she is taking time to focus on her family.” These comments refer to Lopez’s recent announcement canceling her upcoming world tour, “This Is Me… Live,” citing the need to be with her family and friends.

Another fan expressed frustration, saying, “Idk how I feel about this. Her fans made sacrifices to get expensive tickets to her tour and then she canceled. Now she’s on a yacht in Italy without her husband or kids.” Similarly, another fan said, “What happened to spending more time with her family and being heartsick?”
Sources claim the couple is actively trying to resolve their issues. “Ben and Jen don’t want to get divorced,” said one source. “They aren’t done yet and want to fix things because they love each other, but they are also both unhappy.”
Another source shared, “Jen and Ben have been living separate lives but have not officially separated yet. They are just doing their own thing. They went into their relationship very optimistic and thought things could change, but they haven’t.”

These revelations came shortly after Lopez and Affleck put their marital home on the market just 13 months after purchasing it for $60.8 million in May 2023.
Despite the separation rumors, Affleck and Lopez have been seen together in public, still wearing their wedding rings. Lopez even posted a sweet Father’s Day message on Instagram, honoring Ben with a photo from his “Pearl Harbor” days, captioned, “Our Hero. Happy Father’s Day.”
The couple does not have children together but have created a blended family. Affleck has three children with his ex-wife, actress Jennifer Garner, and Lopez has twin children with her ex-husband, singer Marc Anthony.
