Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had another seemingly tense exchange whilst at the premiere of her new film The Mother.
The couple were photographed at the event in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening (May 10) and it looked as though there was a bit of friction between them.
Ben, 50, appeared to sternly point towards something out of view, whilst his wife Jennifer, 53, also seemed to make pointing gestures as they conversed whilst on the carpet.
A video from the premiere however provides some context and suggests that there wasn't tension between Jennifer and Ben whilst they posed together at the event.
An expert lip reader has now shared their thoughts on footage from the premiere, which came just days ahead of the new film's release on Netflix this morning (May 12).
They suggested to the Daily Mail that while Jennifer and Ben may have seemed frustrated at times, they primarily discussed where and how to pose for the photographers.
Sharing their analysis, the lip reader said that Jennifer appears to ask Ben whether her low cut top is "showing too much," with him them seemingly telling her that it's fine.
The couple, according to the analysis, seemed to speak with photographers at the venue in an attempt to figure out where they should stand as they graced the carpet.
It's stated that Jennifer and Ben "seem to interact in a friendly manner" throughout the footage, though at times the "fraught atmosphere may be causing some stress".
The lip reader told the outlet that after finding somewhere to pose, Ben seemed to tell Jennifer to come closer to him, before potentially saying "don't worry babe" to her.
They further added in their interpretation that she tells him to "come close to me" and said that following the photoshoot Ben says "that's us done" before kissing his wife.
He subsequently checks that she is okay and Jennifer responds by saying "yes" before adding that they need to "step over there," according to the lip reader's evaluation.
Footage from the event and some photos support the suggestion that what was initially considered a potentially "tense exchange" was actually an interaction about logistics.
The video suggests that the photos of Ben pointing and looking seemingly tense were whilst he was discussing where the couple should each go following their photoshoot.
Following their interaction and after having posed for photos alongside Jennifer, he's seen heading off in a different direction moments later.
The couple seemed to be enjoying the event in other photos, with them seen embracing and kissing each other whilst in attendance at the premiere in Los Angeles earlier this week.
