ALBAWABA - Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's relationship seems to be coming to an end.

One of Ben Affleck's sources tells people that the actor is packing up his things and leaving the house he shares with Jennifer Lopez.

According to a source close to the couple, the Academy Award-winning filmmaker removed all of his belongings from the couple's Beverly Hills estate before Lopez's recent trip to Europe. This comes more than a month after people initially reported that Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 54, were living apart in Los Angeles as they dealt with marital strife.

Ben is still residing in the rented property in Brentwood. A second report says he's been there for two months. I think he's OK. Every day, he seems to be fully engrossed in his job at his office. Aside from that, he's hanging out with his kids.

Affleck and Lopez, who tied the knot in July 2022 after their infamous love rekindling, reportedly placed their Beverly Hills mansion—which they've shared since June 2023—on the market earlier this month, according to PEOPLE's source.

Separately seen entering a West Hollywood building where they both had offices a few hours apart, the pair seem to have spent time together as recently as June 26. Near 10 o'clock in the morning, Affleck showed up, accompanied by a duffel bag, according to TMZ. Shortly after Lopez left the facility, the production firm of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon took photos of her.

Since Lopez and Affleck had been absent from public view for more than a month earlier this year, marriage rumors have been circulating. A source told PEOPLE in May that the couple's marriage "is not in the best place at the moment."

As they celebrated Affleck's children's graduations from high school, Lopez and Affleck seemed completely absorbed in their jobs and families, despite the ongoing rumors of marital trouble. In honor of Father's Day, Lopez paid homage to Affleck on June 16 via her Instagram Stories.

On June 23, when Lopez was on vacation in Italy, Affleck was seen out and about in Los Angeles without his wedding band.
