Ben Affleck unveiled a shocking midlife crisis makeover when he surfaced in Los Angeles over the weekend amid his marital woes with Jennifer Lopez.
JLo, 55, and Ben, 51, have not been seen together in two months, and sources tell DailyMail.com they have prepared divorce documents to file at a later date.
Just this Thursday evening, JLo was spotted stepping out without her wedding band, and with her engagement ring moved to her right hand.
Now Ben has revealed his own jaw-dropping new look, complete with a tiny faux-hawk and a Red Hot Chili Peppers t-shirt.
He rounded off the outfit with skinny jeans, aviators and black leather jacket that appeared undersized – but went noticeably without his wedding ring.

The sides of his head were shaved down almost completely, with only the barest bit of scruff left over as he took a stab at a punk rock aesthetic.
He was spotted strolling through a parking lot before he hopped aboard his electric motorcycle, placed his helmet safely on his head and drove off.
During his separation from his first wife Jennifer Garner – the mother of his three children – Ben also made a dramatic alteration to his look.
He acquired a massive back tattoo of a phoenix that he initially claimed was ‘fake for a role’ after fans began remarking on it on social media.
However, years later, after being mocked for ‘his enormous, garish tattoo’ in the New Yorker, he admitted the body art was real.
The New Yorker piece was called The Great Sadness Of Ben Affleck, prompting him to retort on Twitter: ‘I’m doing just fine. Thick skin bolstered by garish tattoos.’
Last week, the Mail revealed how Jen and Ben — who starred in Oscar-winning movies such as Good Will Hunting and Argo — have prepared their divorce paperwork and will file at the end of the summer.
In May 2023, Ben moved out of their sprawling Beverly Hills mansion, which they bought shortly after they married in July, 2022.
After a final attempt at reconciliation in recent weeks failed, the couple’s divorce documents ‘are finalized, but not yet turned in’, multiple sources have claimed.

After his failed early-aughts engagement to JLo, Ben went on to marry Jennifer Garner in 2005, and they had three children together, before splitting in 2015 and finalizing their divorce three years later

Ben’s latest makeover comes after a friend close to him told Dailymail.com that JLo’s alcohol venture was ‘one of the things that broke the camel’s back’
Indeed, they go so far as to say it contributed to Ben, not Jen, being the one to pull the plug on their union amid speculation that their marriage is finally at an end

The news follows Affleck buying a new $20.5 million ‘bachelor pad’ mansion in the Pacific Palisades on Wednesday, July 24, the day Lopez turned 55.
Friends of Lopez’s claimed Affleck’s sudden bachelor pad purchase on her birthday had been a ‘stab to the heart’.
His purchase came days after the couple listed their Beverly Hills mansion for $68 million.
July 24 also marked the day Lopez also finalized the sale of her four-bedroom New York City penthouse for $23 million, People reported.
‘They finalized the divorce papers with her a month ago, but are waiting for the right time to drop them,’ one source close to the duo claimed.
‘At that time, they will release a joint statement that will say how they have much love for each other and how they fought to make it work, but couldn’t.
‘Honestly, in the end they could not come to a compromise. What they had before is gone and they have both accepted it,’ another source claimed.

Friends say that, as a recovering alcoholic, he felt his wife selling vodka and tequila tipples was insulting to him
His hurt was only heightened by his belief that her motivation for launching her drinks’ brand was purely financial — for cold, hard cash
First seeking help for his alcoholism in 2001, Ben has since been in rehab multiple times
To make matters worse, J-Lo then went on a very public promo campaign where she told the Press how much she loves to drink to ‘relax and let loose’
‘Knowing how he lost everything including the love of his family, knowing that he could possibly relapse, Jen decided to start her own spritzer line for more money, as if she did not have enough,’ said a source
‘This was one of the things that broke the camel’s back,’ said an insider: ‘But Ben saved his sobriety’

The pair were last pictured together on March 30. They have since spent the summer apart; Jennifer largely on the east coast while Ben remains at home in Los Angeles.
They even spent their second wedding anniversary on July 16th in different cities.
Reports of Affleck and Lopez’s marital woes began circulating in May when a sources close to the couple reported Ben had moved into a $100,000 rental and the couple intended to sell their ‘dream home‘.
Affleck’s home was just a short drive from ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s Brentwood house.
The couple were married from 2005 to 2018, and share children Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12.
The home was designed by architect Cliff May.
The penthouse Lopez sold is a four-bedroom, 7.5-bath duplex.

The pair got together in 2002, became engaged, but split in 2004 before they got married
