Ben Affleck appeared visibly tense during an outing in Los Angeles on Thursday, just as reports emerged of his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez’s hunt for a new home. The Gone Girl actor, 52, was photographed grimacing while dropping off his car at a valet, dressed casually in a white button-up shirt and black jacket.
Affleck’s mood comes in the wake of his Thanksgiving celebration with former spouse Jennifer Garner, with whom he shares three children. Meanwhile, Lopez, who filed for divorce from Affleck in August, has been making moves to secure a new residence in the city.
Despite their luxurious $68 million marital estate—boasting 12 bedrooms, a guest penthouse, a boxing ring, basketball courts, and parking for 80 vehicles—still sitting on the market, Lopez has been touring other high-end properties. Her recent visits included three sprawling Brentwood mega-mansions, all equipped with large pools and expansive backyards, perfect for her and her 16-year-old twins.
The real estate search reflects Lopez’s plans to maintain a lavish lifestyle post-split, while Affleck continues to settle into his $20 million bachelor pad nearby. The saga of their high-profile separation continues to draw attention as both navigate life after their whirlwind reunion and subsequent breakup.
