Jennifer Lopez spent her long weekend in the Hamptons with friends, and she packed accordingly for the provincial occasion. After stocking up for her garden in a frilly striped top and raffia Dior bag, the star stepped out with her vocal coach Stevie Mackey on Saturday for a quaint neighborhood bike ride.
In an Instagram photo posted by her pal, Lopez wore a chic yet casual ensemble as she and Mackey posed on matching cream-colored bicycles. For the outdoor excursion, she opted for natural glam and a slicked-back ponytail, keeping warm from the breeze with a dark brown Ralph Lauren sweatshirt bearing a white “RRL” graphic. She tucked the pullover into high-rise white linen pants, which flaunted a cropped and flared fit. On foot, she stayed comfy in a pair of platform white sneakers.
While her bike (and the mansion behind it) seemed to accessorize her laid-back look plenty, J.Lo dressed up her outfit with silver hoops and her large diamond wedding ring—despite her alleged marital troubles with Ben Affleck. While Lopez was surrounded by friends this weekend, her husband celebrated Fourth of July across the country in Santa Monica. There, he spent time with his children Sam, Violet, 18, and Fin, 15, whom he shares with ex Jennifer Garner.
The three parents also reunited earlier this month, when they all showed up to support Sam at one of his basketball games. There, Lopez and Affleck were seen exchanging sweet kisses on the cheek. And just a few days earlier, the singer also attended Violet’s high school graduation ceremony with her husband; Garner, of course, was also there.
Lopez and Affleck, who married in 2022 after rekindling their romance, have been living separately for the past few weeks as the actor films his upcoming project The Accountant 2 in Los Angeles. Affleck has been staying at the rental property in L.A., while J.Lo has been staying at the Beverly Hills mansion they recently purchased together while promoting her new movie, Atlas.
The two are also now selling that $60.8 million mansion. A source told People: “Ben never liked the house. It’s too far away from his kids.” The insider added that the house didn’t meet the expectations of the “Can’t Get Enough” singer, either: “The house is way too big for her.”
