Despite the strain in their marriage, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck remain on good terms, a source close to Lopez tells PEOPLE. “They’re still friendly and see each other every few days,” the insider reveals, hinting at the couple’s determination to maintain a cordial relationship.

This revelation comes amidst speculation surrounding the state of their high-profile union, which has captured the attention of fans and media alike. The pair, who rekindled their romance in 2021 after nearly two decades apart, have found themselves navigating the complexities of their relationship under the watchful eye of the public.

A Family Affair

The last time Affleck and Lopez were spotted together publicly was on June 2, when they attended Affleck’s 12-year-old son Samuel’s basketball game in Santa Monica, California. The couple was photographed sharing a kiss on the cheek as they greeted one another outside the YMCA, before heading inside with Affleck’s mother, Chris Anne Boldt.

“It’s a good sign they were at the game together,” another source told PEOPLE, referring to the sporting event, which was also attended by Affleck’s ex-wife and Samuel’s mom, Jennifer Garner. The presence of their extended family members suggests a commitment to maintaining a united front, particularly when it comes to their children’s well-being.

A Shared Home, Separate Paths

Amidst the ongoing speculation, sources have revealed that Affleck and Lopez are selling their Beverly Hills mansion, which they’ve shared together since June 2023. The $61-million-dollar home, purchased in the spring of 2023, has been a symbol of their commitment to building a life together.

According to multiple sources, Lopez is currently residing in the property, while Affleck is staying at a rental home a few miles away while shooting his film The Accountant 2. This physical separation has fueled further speculation about the state of their relationship, though the reasons behind their living arrangements remain unclear.

A Symbolic Gesture

On Saturday, June 8, Lopez was snapped arriving solo at Giorgio Baldi in Los Angeles, wearing a cream knit dress and both her wedding and engagement rings. The singer and actress accessorized her look with large gold hoop earrings and chunky peep-toe heels, seemingly making a statement with her choice of jewelry.

The outing came just over a week after the Atlas star canceled her summer tour — This Is Me… Live — to “take time off to be with her children, family and close friends.” In a statement to her fans on her OntheJLo website, Lopez expressed being “completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”
