A source previously told PEOPLE that Lopez and Affleck hadn’t seen each other “in weeks” and they’re “moving on separately”. Jennifer Lopez visited Ben Affleck at his home over the weekend after spending much of the summer apart.
A source tells PEOPLE that the Atlas actress, 55, stopped by Affleck’s rental home in Brentwood on Sunday, Aug. 11, while he was there. Earlier in the day, she accompanied his son Samuel, 12, to the mall.
Lopez, who has 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, is eager to spend time with Affleck’s kids before school begins, the source says. Affleck and ex-wife Jennifer Garner share Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel.
“Just because she’s not with Ben doesn’t mean that she doesn’t care about his kids,” says the source. “She always cared about them. She spent months looking for the perfect house for their blended family last year. Now when she’s back in L.A. she wants to spend quality time with them before school resumes and Violet is off to college.”
A source previously told PEOPLE on Aug. 6 that Lopez and Affleck — whose 52nd birthday is this Thursday, Aug. 15 — hadn’t seen each other “in weeks.” Added that source, “They’re moving on separately. Jennifer is trying to find a new home to start fresh.” Days later, another insider said Affleck is “doing well” and “thrives when he’s busy, and he’s been working nonstop.”
