Neither JLo or Ben have addressed the rumors

He added: "I think the newlyweds — still very much in love — I think she just wanted to hear his voice. And so sometimes, the reactions that you got from her were because she was listening to her husband's voice."

Despite reports of marital issues with his wife, Ben stepped out on Tuesday with his wedding ring firmly in place, and Jennifer was wearing her ring in her latest video. 

Speculation about trouble in Ben and JLo's marriage arose after the couple went nearly two months without being photographed together. However, the couple recently stepped out together on May 16 to support Ben's child Fin, 15, during their school performance in Los Angeles.
