Jennifer Lopez was spotted flying economy over the weekend, drawing attention not for her usual glamour but for her unassuming travel choice amid ongoing divorce rumors with Ben Affleck and recent financial setbacks. The singer and actress, who has an estimated net worth of $400 million, opted for a budget-friendly flight from Naples, Italy, to Paris, France, on Saturday.
Photos obtained by MailOnline show Lopez, 54, dressed casually in a white jumper and jogging bottoms, sitting in a window seat on a KLM flight where prices start from €134 ($143). Despite the availability of business class, Lopez chose economy, although she did reserve the middle seat for her handbag.
This low-key travel decision follows a series of financial and personal challenges for Lopez. She recently canceled her "This Is Me... Live" tour, which was set to kick off in July, citing a need to spend time with her children, family, and close friends. Additionally, Lopez and Affleck are reportedly trying to sell their $60 million Beverly Hills home, a property they purchased together just last year.
Lopez's solo holiday in Italy, culminating in her flight to Paris for Men's Fashion Week, came amid persistent rumors of an impending divorce from Affleck, 51. The couple, who have been living separately for several weeks, have faced mounting speculation about the state of their two-year marriage. Reports suggest that Affleck has been staying at a $100,000-a-month rental property in Brentwood.
Despite the rumors, Lopez appeared to be in good spirits during her trip. She traveled with her bodyguard, who occupied the aisle seat next to her. Her journey marked a break from her recent stresses and allowed her to reflect on her personal life.
Industry insiders have suggested that Lopez is "over" trying to fix her marriage with Affleck. A source told DailyMail.com, "Jenny has had enough and she really tried but she can do no more, it's not getting any better, it's worse." The source added that Affleck's grumpy and negative demeanor had taken a toll on Lopez.
Affleck, who is currently filming "The Accountant 2," has been described as struggling to balance his demanding career with his family life. This has reportedly contributed to tension in the marriage. Despite these challenges, the couple is said to be maintaining a cordial relationship for the sake of their children.
In addition to her tour cancellation, Lopez recently funded her documentary, "The Greatest Love Story Never Told," with $20 million from her own pocket. The documentary, part of a three-part multimedia project about her and Affleck's love story, was released on Amazon Prime Video in February.
While facing personal and financial difficulties, Lopez's film career remains strong. She is set to promote two upcoming films produced by Affleck: "Unstoppable" and "Kiss of the Spider Woman." Her Netflix sci-fi action movie "Atlas" has also achieved chart-topping success despite mixed reviews.
As Lopez navigates this challenging period, she has cleared her summer schedule to focus on her well-being and family. Friends and insiders remain confident in her resilience, emphasizing that she will bounce back from these setbacks. As one source put it, "Jennifer is a very smart and strong woman and she will bounce back, she always does!"
The public continues to watch closely as Lopez and Affleck manage their high-profile lives and relationships. The coming months will reveal how the couple handles these personal challenges and what the future holds for one of Hollywood's most talked-about pairs.
