Live Nation also announced on May 31, when Lopez canceled her planned concert tour, that the Delola founder is taking time "to be with her children, family and close friends."

Amid marital tensions, Lopez and Affleck have been quietly trying to sell the $61 million Beverly Hills home they bought together in 2023.

The Marry Me star has been living at the house, while her actor/filmmaker husband is staying at a rental home a few miles away, according to sources, but the pair "see each other every few days," one insider recently told PEOPLE.

The duo have remained friendly, stepping out together for family events. They recently attended a graduation party for Affleck's son Samuel, 12, alongside Affleck's ex-wife Jennifer Garner at a rental home in Brentwood, California, where they wore their wedding rings.

Lopez also posted a heartfelt message to her husband on Instagram in honor of Father's Day on Sunday, June 16, calling him "our hero."

The actress and singer is mom to 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, whom she shares with ex Marc Anthony. Aside from Samuel, Affleck also shares Violet, 18, and Seraphina, 15, with Garner, 52.

As for Lopez's vacation history, she has previously embarked on some epic summer getaways, both with friends and with Affleck.

In years past, the couple enjoyed trips to France and Italy over the summer, including during their 2022 honeymoon in Milan and Lake Como and a birthday trip to the celeb-loved island of Capri.

The "Jenny from the Block" artist has said she's "not a big vacation person" in general, but has spoken about her love for Italy.

"When I finally went to spend a couple of summers in a row in the south of Italy, I really, really loved it," Lopez said in a 2023 Travel + Leisure interview.
