Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Are ‘Headed for a Divorce,’ He ‘Already Moved Out’

According to an insider who speaks exclusively to In Touch, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have reached a breaking point and have “moved out” of their shared house.

The insider divulges, “The writing is on the wall—it’s over.” “They’re getting divorced, and [Ben] isn’t at fault this time!”

Fans have observed that in the last several weeks, Ben and Jennifer have been spending more time apart. On May 6, the actress and his spouse did not go to the Met Gala, even though she was a key co-chair of the event. Ben said he had to miss the Met Gala because he was filming The Accountant 2, but a source close to In Touch claims he “decided to call it quits” on his union with the well-known singer.

The insider continues, “He’s concentrating on his work and his kids now.” “They’ll probably have to sell the dream home they’ve been looking for for the past two years because Ben has already moved out. They will always be in love, but neither she nor he can make the other stop loving them. It could not have continued in any way.

The two had a persistent issue in their relationship because of how differently they handled the spotlight: Ben avoided the spotlight, while Jennifer welcomed it. The Air actress J. Lo said in her documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told, “Listen, one of the things I don’t want is a relationship on social media. Getting back together, that’s what I said. Then I started to realize that asking isn’t really fair. It’s similar to saying you’re going to marry a boat captain but that you don’t want to live by the water.

“I don’t think [Ben] is very comfortable with me doing this, [but] he doesn’t want to stop me,” Jennifer said. A source claims that “even though she can be extremely controlling of him,” Ben would never attempt to stifle Jennifer’s ambitions or tell her that she is incapable of achieving something that would advance her career.

Regretfully, the couple found that compromise was more difficult than they had anticipated. The insider says, “They waited nearly two decades to get back together, but in the end, they just couldn’t make it work.” “They both claimed to have grown up and learned from their mistakes, but some of the more significant problems that caused their first breakup persisted.”

Ben and Jen started dating in the early 2000s, and when they put off their 2003 wedding, they were only a few days away from being married. Before calling it quits on their romance in January 2004, they were together. They didn’t get back together until 2021, which is why they eventually decided to get married in July 2022.
