Jennifer Lopez has reportedly taken a significant step in moving on by covering up the matching tattoo she got with Ben Affleck. The two stars famously debuted their “commitment” ink around Valentine’s Day in February 2023. Lopez’s original design was an infinity sign on her rib cage, featuring an arrow and the names “Jennifer” and “Ben” in cursive script. Affleck had opted for two crossed arrows decorated with the initials “B” and “J” on his arm.
After months of speculation following the news of their split, an anonymous tipster confirmed the change to DeuxMoi. The source revealed that “J.Lo covered up Ben’s name on her tattoo” and has replaced the inscription with a hummingbird. Fans began noticing the alteration in July/August of this year, though the exact timing of the cover-up remains unconfirmed.
The Golden Globe nominee has stepped out in several dresses that expose her rib cage over the past year. She often obscured the tattoo entirely with makeup, but eagle-eyed fans last saw the visible original ink on the red carpet back in May 2025. Lopez, who has a history of meaningful tattoos, is now displaying this new symbol as a public mark of a new chapter.
As for Ben Affleck, whose tattoo is located on his arm, it remains unclear if he has covered his own matching ink. Given that he often wears long-sleeved shirts, the status of the “J” and “B” arrow design is unknown. However, the actor is also known for his massive phoenix tattoo on his back, suggesting he is comfortable with permanent body art, leaving the current status of his J.Lo tattoo a continued subject of fan curiosity.
