Jennifer Lopez and Violet's close relationship

Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck in August of this year. The news came after months of Affleck and Lopez not being seen with each other and confirmed rumors that had been swirling for some time now. 

Despite the tension that exists between Affleck and Lopez, the pair has prioritized their children, with Emme and Fin remaining friends, and with Violet and Lopez continuing to grow their relationship. Over the past couple of months, Violet has been spotted with Jennifer on various occasions, including a trip to The Hamptons, where they were seen riding some bikes. 

In August of this year, Violet was spotted wearing a Dolce & Gabbana dress initially worn by Lopez. Violet dressed the elegant look down by pairing it with some sneakers and was seen meeting with Max and Emme, Lopez's kids with her ex Marc Anthony.  

"She got extremely close to JLo over the past couple of years, and it broke her heart when they split," said a source to The Daily Mail.
