Jennifer Lopez was spotted having lunch with Ben affleck’s son, Samuel, this week, signaling continued efforts to maintain a familial connection amid the couple’s separation. The outing underscores Lopez’s ongoing commitment to Affleck‘s children despite recent changes in their relationship.
The lunch, part of a pattern of co-parenting efforts, comes as Affleck and Lopez navigate a period of distance, having recently attended a back-to-school event together and shared other group outings with their children. Both actors appear focused on prioritizing their kids’ well-being and fostering relationships between them. Samuel,11,was also seen Friday night with his father,Ben Affleck,his mother Jennifer Garner,and his paternal grandmother in Los Angeles.
Lopez and Affleck have generally tried to keep things civil so their children can maintain a relationship,even as their own future remains uncertain. While Lopez may no longer be in a stepmother role, sources indicate she continues to take a vested interest in the children’s lives.
