Bennifer Divorce Watch

It's Gossip Time!

Hello and welcome to Gossip Time, a weekly guide to the stars by Allie Jones. Today, we are catching up on the 78 Bennifer updates that have occurred since Friday. We WILL get through this together. This post is just for paid subscribers; if you’d like to sign up, you can do so in the box below. 

It is with a heavy, mechanical heart that runs on the power of rose petals that I must add Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lynn Affleck to Gossip Time’s official Divorce Watch register. I did not want to do this, but Benny Medina gave me no choice. There are simply too many stories about the couple’s potential split out there for me to assume J.Lo doesn’t want us to speculate about this. That, and the fact that she “liked” an Instagram post from a fake therapist about unhealthy relationships last Thursday. Lord on high. 

Since we first covered this emerging story on Friday, the tabloids have been churning out update after update about Ben and Jen’s apparently tortured relationship. Let’s take a deep cleansing breath and comb through the evidence together. 

J.Lo attended her movie premiere alone

Last night, J.Lo walked the red carpet at the premiere of her new Netflix movie Atlas, a sci-fi thriller about making friends with A.I. (? I think), alone. She was wearing her wedding band but not her 8.5-carat green diamond engagement ring. The premiere was in L.A., so Affleck theoretically could have attended with her, but People reports he was busy filming The Accountant 2. (They gotta come up with a better name for that one.)
