Jennifer Lopez ‘seemed off’ in pics taken days before rumored split from Ben Affleck

It seems that there’s trouble in paradise for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. At least, that’s what the internet has been saying for the past few days.

Sadly, multiple news outlets suggest that things may not be looking good for the power couple, affectionately referred to as ‘Bennifer’.

Rumors of a potential split have slowly been intensifying as new details come to light.

Last week, Ben Affleck was spotted driving in Brentwood, Los Angeles. According to TMZ, the actor was leaving a house where he had apparently been staying alone. The following day, paparazzi caught him again, leaving the same location.

Affleck, once more riding solo, was reportedly not seen at the $60 million Beverly Hills estate he shares with Jennifer Lopez the previous evening. This absence has led some fans to express their dismay over the potential breakup.

“Why are they breaking up?” a sad fan wrote on X.

Another fan expressed their shock at the breakup rumors, saying on Facebook: “Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!! This can’t be happening!!!!!”

Similarly, someone else simply commented: “That’s not true.”

However, others are less surprised by the rumors… One person even claimed they expected this outcome all along.

“I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if they have secretly split. I knew from the moment they got married, it [would] not be till death do us part. This is her fourth marriage, how is it truthful on her vows?” an X user wrote.

Meanwhile, a hopeful fan chimed in with: “I hope things work out between them!”

Further complicating the couple’s relationship status is the fact that Affleck and Lopez have not been publicly photographed together for over a month. The last time they were seen together was on March 30, holding hands in New York City.

Lopez stayed in New York in April and May to promote her upcoming Netflix movie, Atlas. She was also preparing for and attending the Met Gala as a co-chair, without Affleck.

While Lopez was occupied in New York, Affleck was on the West Coast reportedly filming The Accountant 2. He also attended Tom Brady’s comedy roast on May 5, without Lopez.

Commenting on Lopez’s demeanor during her big night at the Met Gala, one Facebook user wrote: “She looked super stressed and tired at the Met Gala. I figured it was […] her tour rehearsals and filming … Maybe it was this … I root for them.”

“That’s what I was thinking,” replied one user. Another added: “Agree! She looked awful, stressed, and strained. Did not look herself at all.”

A third wrote that the actress “seemed off.”

РRIMЕ RIВ

When it comes to a sumptuous and savory meal, prime rib takes the crown. This cut of beef is known for its tenderness, juiciness, and rich flavor. If you want to impress your guests or simply treat yourself to a special meal, mastering the art of cooking prime rib is a must. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through the process, from selecting the perfect prime rib to serving it likе a pro.

Selecting the Right Prime Rib

Choosing the Cut

Selecting the right prime rib is the first step to culinary success. Look for a bone-in prime rib roast weighing between 6-8 pounds. The bone enhances the flavor and juiciness of the meat.

Seasoning and Preparation

Before you start cooking, season the prime rib with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. For an extra burst of flavor, consider inserting optional garlic cloves into the roast using a paring knife.

Cooking the Perfect Prime Rib

Initial Roasting

  1. Preheat your oven to a scorching 500°F (260°C).
  2. Place the prime rib roast on a rack in a roasting pan.
  3. Rub the roast with olive oil and generously season it with salt and pepper.
  4. If desired, you can insert garlic cloves into the roast using a paring knife for a delightful infusion of flavor.

Roasting to Perfection

  1. Place the roasting pan in the oven and roast the prime rib at 500°F for 15 minutes. This high-temperature initial roast will seal in the juices and create a flavorful crust on the outside.
  2. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C) and continue roasting the prime rib until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for precision. For medium-rare, aim for 135°F (57°C). Medium enthusiasts should target 140°F (60°C), while those who prefer well-done should go for 150°F (66°C).
  3. Remove the roast from the oven and allow it to rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving. Resting is crucial to retain the juices and ensure a succulent prime rib.
