An important event that the singer has decided to celebrate by organizing a party in the Hamptons, a region located in the northeast of Long Island in New York State, themed around Bridgerton, referencing the universe of the series The Bridgerton Chronicles. But while many friends and loved ones of the actress responded to the invitation, unfortunately, this is not the case for her husband, Ben Affleck. As revealed by the media Page Six on Monday, July 22, the 51-year-old actor didn’t have much planned.

On her Instagram account, the singer shared several snapshots of herself during her birthday party. Quickly, her 252 million followers noticed that she was not wearing a wedding band or an engagement ring.
