Ben Affleck's daughter Violet seen wearing stepmom Jennifer Lopez's special dress as divorce rumors swirl
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Violet Affleck was spotted donning the same iconic Dolce & Gabbana dress that her stepmother, Jennifer Lopez, famously wore during a romantic Valentine's Day dinner with her father, Ben Affleck.
The 18-year-old effortlessly channeled her stepmother's glamorous style, sporting the two-toned wrap dress during a casual lunch outing in Los Angeles with the singer's 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme. This fashion flashback hits just as the drama surrounding the estranged couple heats up with swirling divorce rumors.
Violet Affleck mirrors Jennifer Lopez’s glam
On Sunday, August 11, Violet Affleck turned heads in a two-toned Dolce & Gabbana wrap dress, flaunting a V-shaped neckline and flowing sleeves accented with pink pleats. Her choice of unlaced sneakers and white gym socks gave the look a relaxed, youthful twist.
This is a stark contrast to how Lopez, 55, styled the same dress for her high-profile Valentine’s Day dinner with Affleck 51, in 2023. Lopez elevated her look with a Dolce & Gabbana belt and dazzling diamond earrings, radiating sophistication and romance.

Dress symbolic of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's romance
The dress worn by Jennifer Lopez during her date with Ben Affleck was a symbol of their whirlwind rekindled romance in 2021, but now, it also serves as a poignant reminder of their crumbling relationship. Reports have since emerged that the couple has been separated for months, with divorce papers reportedly prepared but not yet filed.
Sources revealed that the 'Batman' alum has hesitated to finalize the divorce to "protect" 'On the Floor' songstress. "He's humiliated her because she made a big deal that he's the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of a record; they're not young kids," revealed a source, per Daily Mail.
It’s also rumored that the delay is also to prevent negative repercussions for Lopez's career, particularly regarding their joint film project, 'Unstoppable'. Nevertheless, tension is compounded by the involvement of their children and the lingering disapproval from Lopez's inner circle and Affleck's ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, both playing roles in the ongoing drama.
"There are five kids involved in this," the source added. "She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted it is over." In addition to Violet, Ben co-parents Fin (formerly Seraphina), 15, and Samuel, 12, with his ex-wife Garner.
Jennifer Lopez's wedding ring makes a comeback, fueling rumors
Violet Affleck and Jennifer Lopez' synchronized style isn’t exactly shocking, especially after the two were spotted flaunting their fashion flair together in the Hamptons over the 4th of July holiday. The dynamic duo was also seen hunting for chic finds at LoveShackFancy in Sag Harbor.
However, Violet’s bold fashion statement comes just days after 'Enough' star stirred the pot by flaunting her wedding ring during an outing with Emme in LA, reigniting speculation about her marriage. After recently ditching the ring, the superstar’s sudden reappearance of the bling during their visit to celeb hotspot restaurant E. Baldi only fueled the fire of rumors. Meanwhile, Violet, Fin, and Samuel have been soaking up quality time with their star-studded parents.
