Jennifer Lopez marked Thanksgiving by sharing a heartfelt message with fans.
In an Instagram post on Friday, November 29, the 55-year-old posted a photo of herself in the kitchen, smiling and posing with a freshly cooked turkey. She wore a floral embroidered sweater, eye-catching statement earrings, and a high ponytail.
Lopez captioned the photo: “I hope everyone has a fun and happy Thanksgiving. I’m so grateful to all of you. 🧡”
This Thanksgiving has special significance for Lopez because it was the first time she filed for divorce from Ben Affleck in August, ending their two-year marriage. Divorce records reveal that the couple has been separated since April 26, 2024.
Affleck, 52, chose to vacation in Los Angeles with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. The couple previously volunteered at The Midnight Mission’s annual Thanksgiving Street Fair, where they served meals to the homeless. The event is organized by a nonprofit organization that aims to provide meals and entertainment to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Skid Row.
“They truly enjoy giving back to their community and cherish their precious time together as a family,” a source told ‘PEOPLE’ of Affleck and Garner’s involvement. The couple, who share three children – Violet Anne, 18, Seraphina Rose, 15, and Samuel, 12 – were seen wearing matching aprons, smiling in photos alongside the organization’s CEO, David Prentice.
Meanwhile, Lopez continues to focus on her family and personal growth.
A source told ‘People’ earlier this month, “Jennifer is doing great. She’s not living in the past. She’s grateful for everything she has.” The source also mentioned that Lopez still keeps in touch with Affleck’s children, making sure they know they can always contact her.
