Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have seemingly all but confirmed that their marriage is headed for divorce. From living separately and selling their $60M mansion they bought together to now not wearing their wedding rings and vacationing solo, we’re wondering why people wouldn’t think their breakup is imminent. Keep reading for more details.

Ben Affleck Steps Out Without His Wedding Ring While JLo Vacations Solo
Last Saturday, Affleck stepped out to grab some dinner with his 18-year-old daughter Violet, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. Photographed on his way to Tasty Noodle, he was wearing a black-and-white flannel over a white t-shirt and a pair of simple blue jeans. But what he wasn't wearing is what caught fans' eyes. The Oscar-winner was notably missing his wedding ring—perhaps he wasn't wearing it while his wife is oceans away?
While the filmmaker stayed back in Los Angeles, Jennifer Lopez took herself on a solo vacation in Europe. She's been spotted at fashion shows in Paris, out to dinner with friends, and enjoying a boat ride in Italy. While it looks like she's having a blast, again, one thing is notably missing—her husband.
"Jen loves vacationing in Europe during the summer," an insider told People. "That's never really been Ben's scene, even when him and Jen weren't having any issues. Jen isn't letting the fact that Ben's not there bring her down." What do they have in common?
Ben & Jen Divorce Rumors Run Wild
Of course, these two incidents aren't the only ones that point towards divorce. Many sources close to the couple shared their insights on their friends' relationship: "Ben and Jen don't want to get divorced," one source said. "They are saying they won't, but their relationship is simply not working at this point. They aren't done yet and want to fix things because they love each other, but they are also both unhappy."
Perhaps it doesn't help that they don't live together. While Ben is staying at a rental home just a few miles away from their shared mansion while filming The Accountant 2, while Jen apparently packs things up at their mansion, as the pair are reportedly putting it up for sale after purchasing it a year ago. Again, we're not sure how all of this could not mean divorce.
