Ben Affleck, in the midst of his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, has made a notable change in his appearance. Recently spotted in Santa Monica, the actor debuted newly dyed hair and a grown-out beard. While he was dressed stylishly in business slacks and a light blue shirt, his new look received mixed reactions online.

Many commented that gray hair looks better on men than dyed hair, and some suggested that shaving his beard would make him appear younger. Others criticized him for trying to hide his age.

Affleck and Lopez have had a tumultuous relationship, dating back to the early 2000s. They were briefly engaged before splitting in 2003. In May 2021, rumors of a rekindled romance surfaced after they were seen together on vacation.

The couple married in Las Vegas in July 2022 and celebrated with a traditional wedding in Georgia the following month. However, their relationship did not last, as Lopez filed for divorce on their second anniversary.
