Hollywood star Ben Affleck recently revealed a shocking midlife crisis makeover as he surfaced in Los Angeles over the weekend amid his marital woes with Jennifer Lopez via Dailymail.
JLo and Ben haven’t been seen together in a couple of months, and sources told DailyMail.com they have prepared divorce documents to file at a later date.
Last Thursday evening, JLo was spotted stepping out without her wedding band, and with her engagement ring moved to her right hand.
Ben has now revealed his jaw-dropping new look, complete with a tiny faux-hawk and a Red Hot Chili Peppers t-shirt.
He flaunted his the outfit with skinny jeans, aviators and a black leather jacket that appeared undersized – but went noticeably without his wedding ring. The sides of his head were shaved down almost completely and had only the barest bit of scruff left over as he took a stab at a punk rock aesthetic. He was spotted strolling through a parking lot before he hopped aboard his electric motorcycle, placed his helmet safely on his head and drove off.
During his separation from his first wife Jennifer Garner, the mother of his three children – Ben also made a dramatic alteration to his look. He acquired a massive back tattoo of a phoenix that he initially claimed was ‘fake for a role’ after fans began remarking on it on social media.
However, years later, after being mocked for ‘his enormous, garish tattoo’ in the New Yorker, he admitted the body art was real.
The New Yorker piece was called The Great Sadness Of Ben Affleck, prompting him to retort on Twitter: ‘I’m doing just fine. Thick skin bolstered by garish tattoos.’
Last week, it came to light how Jen and Ben — who starred in Oscar-winning movies such as Good Will Hunting and Argo have prepared their divorce paperwork and will file at the end of the summer. In May 2023, Ben moved out of their sprawling Beverly Hills mansion, which they bought shortly after they married in July, 2022. After a final attempt at reconciliation in recent weeks failed, the couple’s divorce documents ‘are finalized, but not yet turned in’, as per sources.
