It is unknown whether Ben Affleck will appear at J.Lo’s main anniversary celebration. According to insiders, the couple is no longer on the verge of breaking up. Dailymail reports the couple are working to save their union by keeping their personal lives out of the spotlight: “Jen and Ben agreed it was best to spend some time apart so they could really figure out what they wanted. They were ready to give up. Divorce papers are ready to be filed. But they decided to make one last attempt and write letters to each other.”
The publication’s source said that the couple has correspondence that will never be made public: “This time, J. Lo will definitely not show these letters to anyone, they will remain only between her and Ben. If they decide they can stay together, she will keep her personal life to herself.” The insider added that the time spent apart helped the spouses understand that their love has not faded: “They don’t give up… and don’t want to get a divorce.” We told you what condition Ben Affleck called dishonest, which he himself set before his wedding to J.Lo.
The last time Ben and Jennifer were photographed together in public was in early June, when they attended Affleck’s 12-year-old son Samuel’s basketball game in Los Angeles. Later, on June 12, the couple attended the boy’s graduation and subsequent party at Affleck’s current home in Brentwood, California, but the two were photographed separately.
