Jennifer Lopez and her former husband Ben Affleck were spotted spending time together over the weekend during a festive shopping trip in Los Angeles, signaling their continued commitment to family unity following their split.

The singer and actress, 56, joined Affleck, 53, and his 13-year-old son Samuel on Sunday as they browsed stores at the Brentwood Country Mart, a popular upscale shopping destination. The low-key outing comes less than two years after the former couple ended their marriage.

According to onlookers, the trio visited several boutique clothing stores, including Sezane and Doen, before stopping by Farmshop Market to grab food together. The appearance followed another recent run-in between the exes just a week earlier, when they attended a school play featuring Lopez's child Emme and Affleck's child Fin, underscoring their shared involvement in their children's lives.
