Ben Affleck has debuted a new look in the days since his divorce from pop superstar Jennifer Lopez was filed on Aug. 20. He appeared in Santa Monica, California, Thursday with his beard and mustache noticeably dyed a dark brown—different from the salt and pepper he’d worn in the weeks before. The style shift seemed to have Affleck chuffed. He was nothing but smiles when he picked up his 15-year-old child, Fin Affleck, during the outing. Affleck and Lopez were spotted amicably having brunch with their kids a few weeks after the filing, but that’s no reason to think that the split won’t happen—the two reportedly met with famed divorce attorney Laura Wasser on Sept. 23. A source toldPeople, “They are still moving forward with the divorce” and “working out financial details amicably.” Lopez and Affleck, who reunited in 2021 after being previously engaged in 2002, did not have a prenuptial agreement before their marriage in 2022.
