Jennifer Lopez attended a high school graduation party for her husband Ben Affleck's eldest daughter, Violet, amid the whirlwind of divorce rumors and speculations.
Sources shared to Radar Online that Lopez's move was seen as a calculated ploy to win back her estranged husband's affection.
Lopez, who grappled with declining ticket sales and a subdued response to her latest album, This Is Me... Now, is worried that her marriage with the Gone Girl actor may be her sole saving grace in staying in the spotlight.
Through the festivities celebrating 18-year-old Violet, the 54-year-old multi-talented performer took a courageous step towards repairing her marriage and securing her future. Lopez sought to allegedly mend ties with Affleck while addressing worries about her professional trajectory and potential setbacks in her career. But it was conceived as her being strategic and cunning instead.
According to the source who spoke to the outlet, "She denies she was at Violet's event for any other reason than to show her support and has begged [Affleck] to see how much pain walking away will cause the entire family."
"She loves his kids - but a lot of people think it's manipulative!"
In a recent statement, the "Jenny from the Block" singer expressed feeling "heartsick" over the sudden cancellation of her tour, citing it as an important decision. Additionally, Lopez revealed plans to prioritize quality time with her loved ones, emphasizing the importance of family bonds.
However, sources close to the situation express doubt regarding the sincerity of the "Get Right" singer's actions, particularly in her husband's eyes, who has recently relocated from their shared home - the same home that is now up for sale on real estate marketplace. They purchased that home for $60.8 million.
"It's pretty clear she's just trying to save face by putting the blame on her personal life. When she showed up at the grad party and turned it into a photo op, [Affleck] saw right through her."
"[Affleck] sent [Lopez] packing after only an hour," the insider added. "He's furious she used the occasion for her own self-involved motives."
The source divulged, "He's told everyone marrying her was a mistake because they're just too different."
It was also disclosed that following their failed engagement in 2004, Lopez went all out to promote the rekindling of their romance which happened in 2021.
"To have it end in divorce isn't just personally painful. It's terrible from a marketing standpoint, too!"
However, it's still best to take this report with a grain of salt.
