Ben Affleck has displayed a stunning midlife crisis makeover when he appeared in Los Angeles over the weekend, despite his ongoing marital problems with Jennifer Lopez.
According to DailyMail.com sources, the pair has not been seen together in two months and is reported to be preparing divorce proceedings.
Jennifer Lopez was sighted sans her wedding band on Thursday evening, with her engagement ring shifted to her right hand, fueling rumors.
Meanwhile, Ben has debuted a startling new appearance that represents a significant shift from his former style.
Affleck wore a small faux-hawk and a Red Hot Chili Peppers t-shirt, and his outfit included slim trousers, aviators, and a black leather jacket that appeared to be somewhat tight.
Most striking of all, the actor's wedding band was noticeably missing, indicating a bold new chapter in his life.
After making a statement with his new look, he was spotted driving through a parking lot on his electric motorcycle, helmet firmly on.
This radical transformation parallels his earlier rebranding amid his divorce from ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
Back then, he famously displayed a big phoenix tattoo on his back, which he originally said was only for a part.
He subsequently admitted it was genuine after being mocked in a New Yorker story titled The Great Sadness Of Ben Affleck.
