Hollywood power couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly facing marital troubles, with sources claiming that the couple is heading for a divorce. According to an insider quoted by In Touch Weekly, Affleck has already moved out of the home they share.
“Ben Affleck has hit a breaking point with Jennifer Lopez and has moved out of the home they share,” the source revealed. “The writing is on the wall — it’s over. They’re headed for a divorce – and for once, [Ben’s] not to blame!” The insider further explained that the couple’s differences have become insurmountable, noting, “She can’t control him, and he can’t change her.”
The couple, who rekindled their romance and married in July 2022, are also expected to sell their dream home soon. “Ben is focusing on his work and his kids now. They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her. There’s no way it could have lasted,” the source added.
Adding fuel to the speculation, Lopez recently ‘liked’ an Instagram post stating, “You cannot build a healthy relationship with someone who lacks integrity and emotional safety.” This public action has led to further rumors about the state of their marriage.
Additionally, People reported that the couple has not been seen together for almost 47 days. Lopez is currently in New York promoting her upcoming film, Atlas, and recently attended the Met Gala 2024 alone. Affleck, on the other hand, is busy filming The Accountant 2.
This news comes as a surprise to fans who witnessed their much-publicized rekindled romance after their initial breakup in 2004. The couple’s journey was also highlighted in Lopez’s documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told, where she described the challenges of bringing her husband into the public eye. “The other scary part was that I was bringing into it my husband, who was kind of the reluctant participant, silent participant and all,” Lopez said. “But I really feel like as an artist, you have to be vulnerable.”
While neither Lopez nor Affleck has officially commented on the divorce rumors, the developments hint at significant changes in their relationship dynamics. Fans and the media alike are watching closely for any updates from the couple.
