Ben Affleck’s mum rushed to hospital ahead of Jennifer Lopez wedding

An ambulance has been called to Ben Affleck’s home, with the star’s mother rushed to hospital ahead of his wedding to Jennifer Lopez this weekend.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck won’t last, her first husband says

Ben Affleck’s mother was rushed to the hospital overnight after falling off a dock at the actor’s Georgia home where he and Jennifer Lopez are planning to marry for the second time this weekend, the Daily Mail reported.

Pictures show an ambulance departing the star’s property with his mother, who was taken to St. Joseph Candler children’s hospital in Savannah, according to the report.

A source told Daily Mail that his mother, Christopher Anne Boldt, fell and cut her leg. The outlet originally reported it was a child who was injured.

The outlet obtained photos of Lopez and Affleck at the hospital with his mother.

Lopez was snapped wearing a purple gingham sun dress and a Dior bag, while Affleck was photographed smoking and wearing a purple T-shirt and a backwards cap.

Reps for Lopez and Affleck didn’t immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.

The Hustlers star, 53, and Affleck, 50, arrived in Georgia earlier this week ahead of their nuptials. The couple were photographed with their kids shopping in Savannah ahead of the big day. The Deep Water actor’s brother, Casey Affleck, was also seen arriving in town and, of course, stopping at Dunkin’ Donuts for a fresh brew to energise before the weekend’s festivities.

The couple earlier had a low-key Vegas wedding in July.

As Page Six earlier reported, the couple’s ceremony will be officiated by celebrity life coach Jay Shetty. Like many stars, Lopez has appeared on his On Purpose podcast, and she invited him to officiate four weddings that she orchestrated as part of a PR stunt for her latest movie, Marry Me, in February.

While preparations were already underway at the home on Friday, Page Six has learned that Lopez is expected to walk down the aisle in a custom Ralph Lauren gown.

She already wore two dresses — a simple Alexander McQueen style that she saved “for so many years” and an elaborate lace Zuhair Murad wedding gown — for their surprise Las Vegas wedding in July.
