JLo Spends Holiday Weekend in the Hamptons & More Celebrity Sightings

Amid rumors of a potential split with husband Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez chose to spend a peaceful Fourth of July weekend in the Hamptons with friends. Locals saw her enjoying some downtime without Affleck, who remained in Los Angeles.

The singer’s itinerary included retail therapy at Staud and Isabel Marant, plant shopping with her manager Benny Medina, and a lunch at the popular Sant Ambroeus in East Hampton, according to reports.

Lopez was also seen biking with her longtime vocal coach, Stevie Mackey, who captioned an Instagram photo, “Good times, good friends, good wheels.”

Despite their time apart, both Lopez and Affleck, married since July 2022, continue to wear their wedding rings. Lopez’s getaway with friends differed from last year’s Fourth of July spent at Michael Rubin’s White Party with Affleck.

The holiday week saw a slew of notable guests at Arthur & Sons Italian restaurant in Bridgehampton. Rao’s owner Frankie Pelligrino Jr. and Rao’s Chef Dino enjoyed spicy rigatoni, meatballs, chicken parm, and spumoni. Scotto sisters, Rosanna and Eliana, had a family feast. Retired NYPD Detective and actor Bo Dietl declared the veal parm “the best” he’d ever had. Regular Chris Cuomo arrived in a vintage car to share chicken piccata and Caesar salad with his wife, Cristina Greeven Cuomo. The Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo was among the first to enjoy the restaurant’s new Amalfi Terrace.
