Jennifer Lopez shares two-word message to Ben Affleck on Father’s Day amid split reports
Jennifer Lopez has shared a two-word message to Ben Affleck on Father’s Day amid reports of the pair's rumoured split.
Now, the celebrity power couple first started dating in the early 2000s before splitting up and later rekindling the flame some twenty years later and tying the knot in 2022.
During their time apart, J Lo went on to marry Marc Anthony, who she shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with while Affleck had three children; Violet, 18, as well as Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

There's been a bunch of speculation and break-up rumours between the 54-year-old 'Jenny from the Block' singer and the Good Will Hunting star, 51.
One of the most recent events took place a few backs (22 May), when Lopez attended the Mexican premiere for Atlas, the Netflix sci-fi action thriller which she's stars in.
And people noticed that Affleck was not present - following on from his absence at the Met Gala - where J Lo was a co-chairwoman.
During the press conference, a reporter asked her: "Is your divorce with Ben Affleck real? These rumours?
"What is the truth? Para le press le Mexicana [for the Mexican press], what is the truth of the situation?"
Her co-star, Simu Liu, leapt to her defence, saying: "OK, we’re not doing that.
"Thank you so much guys, we really appreciate it. Thank you."
The Hustlers star herself then leaned forward and chided: "You know better than that."
Simu then said: "Don’t come in with that energy please."
He added: "If I could just end on one thing.
"Jen is a producer on this movie and the reason why I am here and why Sterling [K Brown] was in this beautiful movie is because Jen cares. And Jen cares about things like representation and diversity, and she’s a boss."
However, since then, Lopez has decided to share a sweet tribute to Affleck to mark the occasion of Father's Day over the weekend (16 June).
She took to Instagram where she shared a Story to her 252 million followers of a throwback black and white snap of her husband along with the caption: "Our hero."
Lopez also added in a white heart emoji, finishing up the post writing: "Happy Father's Day."
After posting the first Father's Day pic to her Story, the hit-maker uploaded another black and white photo of her own dad captioning it: "Happy Father's Day Daddy," also with a white heart emoji.
