Ben Affleck looked downcast as he left his office in Los Angeles without his wedding ring on Monday.
The Hollywood actor,51,was hard at work as he drove from his office to the set of one of his latest films.
Ben cut a casual figure for the day as he sported a purple top along with a pair of tan chinos and light grey trainers.
Carrying a large black bag,the film star completed his look with a navy cap.
Ben's wife Jennifer removed her wedding ring on Monday amid speculation the couple are 'no longer on speaking terms' ahead of an imminent divorce filing.
Ben and Jennifer were last pictured together in March. They have spent the summer apart - Jennifer largely on the east coast while Ben remains in Los Angeles (seen together in 2021)
A separate source noted that the rift between the husband and wife had been 'difficult day-to-day' amid basic philosophical differences.
'She likes to open her heart to her fans and to the world,' the source said. 'He is more introspective and private.'
Ben's home was just a short drive from ex-wife Jennifer Garner's Brentwood house.
The couple were married from 2005 to 2018,and share children Violet,18,Fin,15,and Samuel,12.
A body language expert previously revealed to DailyMail.com claimed that Ben and Jennifer appeared to be 'unhappy' and no longer have a 'look of love' in their eyes - amid speculation that the couple is headed for a second separation.
