Reports have surfaced that one of Hollywood’s most high-profile couples, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, are headed for a divorce after just one year of marriage. According to sources, the couple’s marriage has hit a rough patch, leading to Affleck moving out of the house they shared.
The Breakdown
The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2022 and tied the knot in a low-key ceremony, are said to be facing challenges that have pushed their relationship to the brink. Despite their deep affection for each other, it appears that Lopez and Affleck have been on ‘different pages’ for some time, leading to growing tension and the eventual separation.
The Insider’s Take
An insider has been quoted saying, “The writing is on the wall — it’s over,” and for once, “[Ben’s] not to blame!” This statement suggests that the reasons behind the split are complex and multifaceted. Affleck is now focusing on his work and his children, having already moved out of the couple’s shared home.
“Ben Affleck has hit a breaking point with Jennifer Lopez and has moved out of the home they share,” a source told In Touch Weekly. “‘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 added.
“He’s focusing on his work and his kids now. Ben already moved out and they’ll likely have to sell the dream house they spent two years searching for. 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 claimed.
Public Speculation
The couple, once inseparable, have been making solo appearances recently, with Lopez attending the 2024 Met Gala alone and Affleck being spotted at various events without his wife. Further fueling the rumors, Lopez was reportedly seen house hunting, despite the couple having purchased a luxurious home together just a year ago.
