A wild time for Ben Affleck

It’s been all eyes on Ben since rumors started to swirl that he and his wife, Jennifer Lopez, are going through marital problems. There has been a flurry of insiders sharing updates with multiple outlets, along with not-so-subtle clues signs pointing to a divorce.

TMZ broke the news over the weekend that the couple is “quietly” trying to sell the over $60 million mansion they paid cash for after they married. Sources told the outlet the Batman star has already moved out of the house and is living in a Brentwood rental. They also noted that the “This is me... Now” singer is house hunting.

Amid the news, a source recently told PEOPLE, “They’re still friendly and see each other every few days.” They’ve also been there with each other for the end-of-year milestones, with Lopez showing support at Violet’s high school graduation.

The last time they were seen together was on June 2 at Samuel’s basketball game. They were photographed sharing a kiss on the cheek with wedding rings on their fingers. This week, it was reported that the Goodwill Hunting star stopped by the house they once lived in for a four-hour visit.

As for how Garner feels about everything, a source told PEOPLE in May that the mom of three “wants the best for” her ex-husband. “She wants him happy and healthy so he can be the best dad possible,” the insider said.
