Ben Affleck looks exhausted as he returns to LA after eloping with Jennifer Lopez

Ben Affleck has been spotted looking a little tired after he tied the knot with Jennifer Lopez in Las Vegas over the weekend.

The Good Will Hunting actor, 59, was seen in LA for the first time since his surprise elopement with the 52-year-old Hustlers actress and singer on Saturday.

Ben was pictured sitting in his car at traffic lights on Monday after reportedly paying a visit to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s home, no doubt to see their three children, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10.

While stuck in the traffic, Ben was seen cracking a yawn at the wheel of the car, but didn’t appear to have the new Mrs Affleck sitting alongside him.

According to court records seen by TMZ, the couple obtained a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada.

A source close to the happy couple confirmed to the site that they got married over the weekend.

The wedding reportedly took place on Saturday, July 16 and the ceremony was held in both of their legal names: Benjamin Geza Affleck and Jennifer Lynn Lopez.

It came just months after the Hollywood A-lister proposed for the second time to J Lo after the pair famously began dating in 2002 and got engaged that same year.

They were then forced to postpone their wedding in September 2003 before they eventually split in January 2004.

Yet last year the pair announced that they had rekindled their romance and it now seems the groom has been left a little worse for wear after the exciting weekend.

For months on end, speculation was rife that the pair were dating again, but neither Ben or J Lo confirmed their relationship was back on until months later when they were spotted on romantic getaways together.

Ben appeared back on the scene after Hustlers actress J-Lo called it quits from former Yankees star Alex Rodriguez, 46, back in April.

The sweet news of their 'Vegas-style wedding' comes after Jennifer recently gushed about Ben in a rare post to celebrate Father's Day.

The singer and actress shared a loving message for her man alongside a cute video.

She captioned the post: "Happy Father’s Day to the most caring, loving, affectionate, consistent and selfless Daddy ever. #HappyFathersDay my love."

In the video, J-Lo narrated over a selection of snaps and claps of the pair, saying: "This is the best time of my life.

"I love my career, but nothing is more fulfilling to me than being able to build a family with someone who I love deeply and who is just as dedicated to family and to each other as we can be and I feel incredibly blessed."

While the Hollywood stars don’t have kids together, Ben shares kids Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner while J-Lo shares 14-year-old twins Emme and Max with ex-hubby Marc Anthony.
