For weeks now, rumors have been suggesting that the end has come for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s relationship and that the two are headed for a divorce. Those close to the situation alleged they were living in separate Los Angeles homes and Affleck was seen moving his belongings out of the couples shared home. Well, an insider close to the situation has now shared how the Justice League veteran is allegedly feeling following the split. If they’re to be believed, Affleck, 51, is reportedly struggling with the realization that his fairy-tale ending with the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer, 54, didn’t pan out as he had hoped.
A source close to the situation spoke with OK! Magazine, breaking down how the Argo actor is reportedly having a tough time coping with the breakup. The insider said:
The rift between the Hollywood power couple allegedly stems from their drastically different lifestyles. Married in 2022, Bennifer have experienced a considerable amount of media attention. But the differences that once seemed endearing have allegedly now driven a wedge between them. The source continued:
The “On the Floor” performer recently canceled her THIS IS ME… LIVE world tour to spend more time with her children, family and friends. Fans began to connect the dots when the fashion icon was recently pictured enjoying a stunning vacation in Italy and attending Paris Fashion Week without her hubby.
Adding fuel to the fire was the report that the couple recently put their $60 million marital home on the market, a move that insiders interpret as a clear signal that a divorce is imminent. The Air star and the Selena actress have been spending more time apart due to their hectic work schedules, and the physical distance has apparently just made the emotional distance more apparent. The source added:
As Bennifer navigates this trying time, fans are left hoping for the best for both stars. As The Town star reportedly grapples with the emotional fallout, it seems evident that both he and JLo are committed to moving forward in their own ways. The next few months will likely bring more updates on this unfolding drama, as the seemingly estranged power couple focus on their careers and personal well-being.
As Ben Affleck seeks clarity and peace, he appears to be following his buddy Matt Damon’s advice by diving headfirst into work. And, with a jam-packed schedule, staying occupied likely won’t be a problem for the Gone Girl star. Fans have a lot to look forward to, including the official announcement of The Accountant 2 and another exciting collaboration between Affleck and Damon in the crime thriller RIP.
