Jennifer Lopez is looking ahead.

The “On The Floor” hitmaker, who turned 55 on Wednesday, is looking at her new age with a newfound perspective and sees it as a “fresh start,” according to a report.

The singer celebrated the milestone sans husband Ben Affleck as the pair’s marriage continues to be plagued by divorce rumors.

And while the rumors persist, the mom of two is “doing her best to stay positive and focus on the great things in her life,” a source told ET.

Lopez “always loves getting to spend time on the East Coast, especially during the summer, and it’s been nice for her to be surrounded by friends and family who love her,” the insider added.

“It has been a hard year with some unexpected realizations, changes, and obstacles, but Jen is trying to view her 55th birthday as a fresh start,” the source continued.

“She is trying not to let her situation with Ben bring her down.”

Page Six has reached out to Lopez’s reps for comment.

The couple, who tied the knot in July 2022, were not together on their 2-year wedding anniversary on July 16, prompting further speculation about the status of their relationship.

Although neither has publicly addressed rumors of marital woes, an insider recently told Page Six that it has “been over for months.”

And while there’s been no public word from Affleck on his wife’s special day, Lopez did share a birthday selfie with her Instagram followers on Wednesday.

The “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” songstress has been spending her summer galavanting in the Hamptons, and earlier this week celebrated her birthday with a festive lunch.
