While it seems like we keep getting more and more sad updates about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s reported split, there is some good news. It seems that throughout this sad time, Lopez is prioritizing her family like she said, and has made it a priority to be with her stepchildren too.

In case you missed it, on July 13, Lopez posted quite a few videos and photos to her Instagram story via Page Six. But these weren’t just any videos because they were videos of Lopez with her stepdaughter Violet Affleck bonding in the Hamptons. In the video, we see Lopez smiling as they ride in the car together, along with one of Violet’s pals.

Along with that, Lopez and Violet were seen together at the East Hampton Antiques & Design Show. In the photos obtained by the outlet, we see Lopez in a white top and blue jeans, with Violet in an all-pink outfit and face mask. They looked like they were having the time of their lives together, and even went for ice cream!

This outing shows that while things may not be looking great for Lopez and Ben, they’re still focusing on co-parenting their blended family; and that’s something we truly love to see.
