Jennifer Lopez is planning her summer vacation!
The Atlas star, 54, is making travel plans, a source told People magazine, and Lopez is taking time out this summer to “spend time with her children, family and close friends,” according to the source, who announced on May 31 that Live Nation canceled her planned concert tour amid tensions in her marriage to Ben Affleck.
Lopez has previously enjoyed epic summer vacations with friends and Affleck.
The couple have previously enjoyed summer trips to France and Italy, and are planning a honeymoon in Milan and Lake Como in 2022, as well as a birthday trip to celebrity-popular Capri island.

While Lopez says she's generally “not a big vacation person,” she has spoken out about her love for Italy: “I spent two summers in a row in southern Italy and really, really loved it,” she said in a 2023 interview with Travel + Leisure magazine.
She detailed that her life had been “always work, work, work,” but that her trip to Italy changed her perspective: “I thought, 'Oh, this is what I've been missing all this time,'” she joked.

“Honestly, I love being on the water. I find it really calming, and I can just sit and look at the ocean and the sky,” she told T+L. “I love just being on a beautiful beach, eating outside and enjoying the fresh air.”
In 2021, Lopez and Affleck celebrated her 52nd birthday on a yacht off the Amalfi Coast and docked in St. Tropez, a summer destination frequented by A-list celebrities.
“They're enjoying a lovely getaway,” a source told People magazine at the time.

While Affleck and Lopez's current marital troubles have affected their vacation plans, their relationship remains friendly.
The singer posted a heartfelt message to her husband on Father's Day, June 16, calling him “our hero.”
The actress has three children — Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12 — with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 52. He is also stepfather to 16-year-old twins Max and Emme, born to Lopez with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

The couple recently attended Samuel's graduation party with Garner at a rented home in Brentwood, California, where she was wearing her wedding ring.
The couple are quietly trying to sell the $61 million Beverly Hills home they bought together in 2023. Lopez lives in the house and Affleck lives in a rental a few miles away, but the two “see each other every few days,” the source said.
