Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Show Unity Despite Split, Exchange Gifts at Soho House

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck continue to demonstrate their commitment to maintaining a cordial relationship post-split. The 55-year-old music icon and the 52-year-old actor-director were spotted exchanging Christmas gifts during a lunch meet-up at the exclusive Soho House in West Hollywood on Sunday, December 22.

An insider revealed to Page Six that the former couple is dedicated to remaining part of each other’s lives despite no longer being romantically involved. “Ben and Jennifer are still connected and communicate, especially when it involves their kids,” the source shared.

The reunion follows their divorce finalized in August 2024, after working together on the sports-drama film Unstoppable. The movie, which Affleck produced, features Lopez in the role of a struggling mother of a wrestling champion, Anthony Robles.

Lopez has been vocal about her experiences as a mother, recently sharing emotional insights during promotions for the film. Speaking to Judy Rubles, the real-life inspiration behind her character, Lopez reflected on the powerful message of motherhood woven into Unstoppable. “It’s a story that deeply resonates with me,” Lopez remarked, adding that it helped her navigate some of her own parenting challenges.

While their romantic chapter has closed, Lopez and Affleck’s willingness to support each other professionally and personally sets a positive example of co-parenting and mutual respect. Their collaboration on Unstoppable underscores their ability to work together, even during a challenging period in their lives.

As fans watch their story evolve, it’s clear that both stars prioritize their children and shared history, showing that mutual respect can thrive even after a high-profile split.
