Jennifer Lopez celebrated her 55th birthday with a regal Bridgerton-themed party in the Hamptons on Saturday, July 20. Although her actual birthday was on Wednesday, July 24, the festivities were held early, with Lopez embodying Queen Charlotte from the Һit Netflix series.
In a video montage posted to Instagram, Lopez dazzled in an ornate blue corset ball gown with gold embroidery that glittered in the evening light. The video, set to orchestral music from the series, captured various highlights of the night, including her arrival in a white horse-drawn carriage.
While Lopez was surrounded by close family and friends, including her mother Guadalupe Rodríguez, her husband Ben Affleck was notably absent amid ongoing rumors about their relationship. The couple has not been seen together in two months.
For the party, Lopez first appeared in her elaborate gown and later changed into a mint green dress with golden lace accents before cutting her four-tier birthday cake. She accessorized with sheer white gloves, a delicate gold necklace, and styled her hair in a voluminous updo.
The night featured a string quartet serenading Lopez as she took her throne on the dance floor, and her son Max, 16, was seen at her side during a candlelit dinner. At one point, Lopez entertained guests by singing into a microphone and shared a kiss with her longtime manager Benny Medina.
The celebration was a Һit with fans, who commented on social media praising the royal-themed event and playfully suggesting Lopez should join the next season of Bridgerton. Despite the grand occasion, Affleck was not present and was seen in Los Angeles with his children.
The couple, known as ‘Bennifer,’ have been facing rumors of a split after Affleck moved out of their Beverly Hills home, which is now up for sale. Despite the separation rumors, a source indicated that the couple is still working on their relationship and is not ready to call it quits.
