Jennifer Lopez cancels summer tour as rumors swirl of troubled marriage
Fox News correspondent Christina Coleman has the latest as the superstar looks to spend time with her family on 'Fox News Live.'
Ben Affleck received words of encouragement from an unlikely source in the days after his estranged wife Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce.
If Affleck had been listening to Mindy Kaling's speech at the Democratic National Convention Wednesday, he would have been surprised to hear his name.
"I couldn’t leave here without giving a shoutout to the amazing delegation from my home state, Massachusetts. I love you, Massachusetts," Kaling, 45, told the crowd in her speech.
"Everyone is always hating on us! But they just don’t get it! Go Sox! Go Jason Tatum! Ben Affleck, hang in there!"

"Ben Affleck, hang in there!"
Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck Aug. 20, the anniversary of the couple's formal Georgia wedding ceremony.
The "Let's Get Loud" singer gave the marriage her all and wanted to make things work after the couple rekindled their romance in 2021, a source told Fox News Digital. Lopez is "devastated" over the split.
Meanwhile, Affleck seems to be doing just fine despite the marriage ending, another source shared. The "Gone Girl" star "threw in the towel a long time ago."

Speculation that the couple's marriage was over began in May, after Lopez attended the Met Gala without her significant other. At the time, a representative for Affleck told Fox News Digital the star had been filming "The Accountant 2" in Los Angeles.
However, the two hadn't been spotted together in months, further fueling rumors of a split.
Sources told People magazine in June that Lopez was living in the couple's $60 million Beverly Hills home while Affleck stayed in a rental nearby as they attempted to sell the pricey mansion.
"He started moving out a while ago," a source told Fox News Digital at the time. "The marriage is completely over, and Jennifer is heartbroken. She loves love and wanted this to work so badly."
