Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have lunch together in Los Angeles with their children after their divorce

Even with the separation request in progress, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck seem to maintain a friendly and, to some extent, intimate relationship. The actors were seen together at a hotel in Los Angeles on Saturday (15), along with their children from previous marriages.

The two spent months without being seen together and this is the first time they have been photographed side by side since the divorce began in early August.

Affleck was accompanied by his children Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, and Jennifer was with her twins Emme and Max, 16, for lunch. According to the American website People, the atmosphere between the former couple was friendly, as the artists prioritize maintaining a good relationship.

The financial details of the two-year marriage are still being debated. They got married in July 2022 and put the mansion they purchased at the time up for sale. Photos of the families’ arrival at the hotel, from Page Six, show that the actors talked alone inside a car for a while.

According to the publication, Affleck and Jennifer hugged and kissed inside the restaurant. After lunch, actress Jennifer Garner, the actor’s ex-wife, was seen picking up her children at the door of the restaurant.
