Jennifer Lopez was spotted solemnly walking out of a dance studio in Burbank, Calif., hours after canceling her upcoming tour amid reports that she and Ben Affleck are headed toward divorce.
The pop star, 54, was photographed with a straight face as she exited Mihran K. dance studio Friday, demonstrating a different demeanor than she had at rehearsal a few weeks ago.
Per photos obtained by Page Six Saturday, she wore beige sweats and a knit top for the outing. Her honey brunette hair was styled down.
Lopez seemed to perk up at one point when she bid farewell to members of her team with some hugs. She was then photographed hopping into a white car before taking off.
The “Let’s Get Loud” hitmaker announced Friday that she was canceling her This Is Me… Live tour to spend time with her loved ones.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” she wrote in her “On the JLo” newsletter. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”
The “Hustlers” star promised fans that she would make it up to them before signing off, “I love you all so much. Until next time…”
Representatives for Live Nation, the promoter for the tour, added in a statement of their own, “Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.”
Lopez recently told AP News that she has “pared down” her obligations over the last “few years” to “slow down more and be home more.”
This Is Me… Live was originally named after Lopez’s ninth studio album, “This Is Me … Now,” but was rebranded in April amid rumors that she couldn’t sell tickets. However, insiders denied the claims.
Lopez’s tour cancellation does notably come after weeks of rumors that she and Affleck are on the rocks.
In May, a person close to “Argo” director’s camp told Page Six that he was ready to move on.
“If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would,” the source explained at the time. “He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream, and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.”
Earlier this week, a source claimed to Us Weekly that he feels “worn down” by their relationship and “doesn’t agree with Jennifer’s lifestyle.”
The insider further alleged that the “Air” actor, 51, has been “checked out” for quite some time.
The pair originally got engaged in 2002 but ended their relationship in 2004 before rekindling their romance decades later. They found love again in 2021 before eloping in Las Vegas in July 2022.
Lopez and Affleck then threw a formal wedding at his Georgia estate the following month.
The famous duo share five children from their previous marriages. Lopez welcomed 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony in 2008, and Affleck has Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
