Despite rumors the couple were having marital woes, the two showed up all smiles as they strutted down the red carpet. The singer stunned in a chrome structured metal crop top and a long black skirt, while the actor sported a black suit and black tie. The lovebirds even shared a kiss for the cameras as they entered the event.
While speaking with a reporter at the star-studded event, Lopez spilled that fans don’t know what’s really happening in her life and seemingly debunked rumors that she and Affleck hit a rough patch.
“We’re real partners,” she dished. “Not just in working together, but in life, as parents and as lovers. We discuss everything with each other.”
“I want his opinion. I trust him,” the “On the Floor” songstress added. “I know he has the best intentions and has no agenda other than to see me shine as bright as I can and that’s what I have for him too.”

Additionally, while at the celebration, Lopez discussed her upcoming album, This Is Me... Now, which she described as the “most personal” work she’s ever done.
"This project was something I didn't really plan," she explained to ET, noting it is inspired by her love story with Affleck.
"When the music was done I just thought to myself, 'There's more of a story to be told here. There's been a bigger journey than just a love story here.' And so it became a much bigger, fuller project, with an incredible message," she stated. "And I realized I had to really get personal to tell it."
The Good Will Hunting star also worked alongside his wife to create This Is Me...Now: The Film, which is a visual representation of the album and shows Lopez's real-life story of how she found love.

When asked about working with Affleck, Lopez gushed, "We collaborate very well together."
"And nobody knows my story more than he does," she raved. "So we were able to kind of sit down and really dig into it, in a way that I don't think any other writer could've done with me."
Lopez revealed she hasn't been "on edge about a project in many, many years," but working with her hubby has put her at ease.
"The scary thing is putting it out," she said. "That's the scary part."

Another source brought up how Garner is a point of contention between the duo.
"Ben and Jen are extremely close," the insider said. "In fact, there have been a lot of photos of them together lately where Ben looks so happy, happier than he usually looks when he's with J. Lo. That's not lost on J. Lo. She doesn't think Ben wants Jen back — J. Lo even likes Jen very much — but what woman wouldn't be a little jealous?"
