This week, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are enjoying a vacation in St. Barts together following the Christmas holiday. On Friday, the pair were photographed walking hand-in-hand across the tropical island. Lopez was wearing a sleeveless white dress with a bright floral pattern printed across the front and ruched ribbon along the buttons, a fabric belt, and a flowing skirt.
She had her hair up in a ponytail and was wearing white rimmed sunglasses and was carrying a blue Chanel hand purse. On her feet were a pair of white thong sandals and she had a pair of dangling earrings in her ears. Affleck wore a white button-down shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers, and was carrying some shopping bags.
On Thursday, Lopez was seen on the tropical beach wearing a white string bikini, and had a pink towel wrapped around her waist. She had on a floppy hat and Valentino sunglasses.
This is the couple’s second holiday season together since their marriage in 2022.
“They threw a really fun party,” a source told People about Affleck and Lopez’s celebrations this year. “They were both in such good spirits.”
They added, “The kids were all there dancing and having a great time, especially the twins and Violet.”
Lopez shares her 15-year-old twins, Max and Emme, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Affleck has three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Seraphina, Violet, and Sam.
In an interview last year on Today, Lopez talked about blending their family, saying, “We moved in together. The kids moved in together. It’s been, like, a really kind of emotional transition, but at the same time all your dreams coming true.”
The singer added, “It’s just been a phenomenal year. Like, my best year I think since my kids were born.”
