Ben Affleck subtly shot down divorce rumors amid mounting speculation about his marriage to Jennifer Lopez.
The Oscar winner, 51, referred to the “Jenny From the Block” singer, 54, as his “wife” during the Season 4 premiere of Kevin Hart’s Peacock series, “Hart to Heart,” Thursday.
While talking about the pair’s life in the spotlight, Affleck admitted he does not like “attention” — a big reason why he always looks grumpy in paparazzi pictures.

“[To me,] people are like, ‘Hey, I like your movie,’ and then they’re like ‘AAAHHHH! J.LO!’” he yelled. “It’s amazing, you know what I mean?”
It is unclear when the episode was filmed.
The couple, who wed in July 2022, sparked split rumors in May after news broke that they were living separately.
A few weeks later, the pair put their $60 million Beverly Hills, Calif., mega-mansion up for sale — one year after they purchased the 38,000-square-foot home in all cash.
