Ben Affleck has decided to dye his hair to conceal his greys while managing his separation from Jennifer Lopez. The 52-year-old actor aims to prioritize their children during this difficult time.
Affleck made a rare public appearance in Santa Monica on Thursday, October 3, accompanied by his son. He donned a light blue shirt paired with black trousers and a silver watch.
Although his outfit grabbed attention, it was Affleck’s dark black facial hair that stood out, suggesting he used dye for a more youthful appearance and cut his hair to minimize the grey tips.
This fresh look appeared shortly after he was observed smoking a cigarette in his luxury BMW i7, as he navigates through his divorce from Lopez, filed on August 20, coinciding with their anniversary in Georgia.
The 55-year-old singer cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the divorce, highlighting contrasting approaches to public life and Affleck’s struggles with mood swings and depression.
This upcoming divorce marks the end of their second chance at romance, having previously dated from 2000 to 2004, reuniting during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020, and marrying in 2022 in Las Vegas.
Throughout their separation, Lopez and Affleck have not celebrated their birthdays or anniversary together. Affleck has moved out of their shared home, which is listed for sale in Los Angeles, relocating to Pacific Palisades.
Affleck Spotted with Son in Santa Monica
Affleck is striving to make the divorce smooth for his three children and the two stepchildren from Lopez’s previous marriage to Marc Anthony.
He and his soon-to-be ex-wife met at the Beverly Hills Hotel, where they shared a brief kiss, indicating they are on amicable terms for their children’s sake, despite any finality about the divorce.
On this occasion, the ‘Pearl Harbor’ actor enjoyed a day out with his son, Fin, who 15, was seen riding a skateboard wearing a safety helmet, cargo shorts, and a black t-shirt.
