Jennifer Lopez, worth $400 million, takes commercial flight without Ben Affleck after ‘emotional’ few weeks

Jennifer Lopez was spotted on a commercial flight traveling from Naples, Italy, to Paris on Saturday, photos obtained by TMZ show.
The “Let’s Get Loud” singer, 54, is worth an estimated $400 million, but she opted not to take a private jet to the City of Light.
Not only did she not fly private, Lopez traveled on an Air France flight and sat in a window seat in the economy section.
She appeared to have also reserved the seat next to her, where she placed her large handbag. Her bodyguard traveled with her and sat in the aisle seat, according to the Daily Mail.
Business class seats were not an option on the flight.
Lopez arrived in Paris on Monday and attended the Dior show debuting the fashion house’s haute couture fall 2024 collection.
The “Hustlers” star left Italy after enjoying a relaxing vacation without her husband, Ben Affleck.
She took a boat ride with friends in Positano and couldn’t stop taking selfies while rocking a $99 white one-piece Gooseberry bathing suit.
Also during the trip, Lopez went out to dinner with two pals — one man and one woman — at an upscale restaurant.
“Jen loves vacationing in Europe during the summer,” a source told “Entertainment Tonight” on Monday. “It’s been nice for her to experience a change of pace and have some breathing room. She has been having a blast with her friends.”
The insider added, “That’s never really been Ben’s scene, even when him and Jen weren’t having any issues. Jen isn’t letting the fact that Ben’s not there bring her down.”
The trip comes weeks after Lopez canceled her summer tour.
On Tuesday, a source told People that Lopez was “grateful” for time to herself, and that she and Affleck are “doing their own thing so far this summer.”
“Jennifer’s having a wonderful time in Europe. She loves Italy and visits every year. She’s grateful for a break,” the insider said. “The past few weeks have been emotional for her. Ben has been working in LA and is spending time with his kids. Everyone seems to be doing OK.”
Lopez and Affleck, 51, have been spending time apart as reports claim that they’re heading for a divorce two years after tying the knot.
While Lopez was in Italy, her husband has been trying to lie low in Los Angeles, where he’s filming the sequel to his 2016 movie “The Accountant.”
The Massachusetts-raised actor made headlines, though, for confronting paparazzi who were using flash cameras as he was behind the wheel pulling out of his and Lopez’s Beverly Hills mansion that’s rumored to be up for sale. Affleck got out of his car and chastised the photographers, warning them that they’re putting his life in danger.
The breakup rumors about the couple started when Lopez attended the Met Gala by herself in May.
Since then, the pair have been seen out together only a handful of times, including at Affleck’s 12-year-old son Samuel’s graduation earlier this month. Lopez arrived separately and kept her distance at the event.
A source told People on June 11 that Lopez and Affleck “are still friendly and see each other every few days.”
The stars have not publicly addressed the speculation about their relationship.
