Jennifer Lopez is said to be “heartbroken” over Ben Affleck’s decision to move out of their multimillion-dollar mansion amid swirling rumors about marital issues.
According to People, the Batman alum moved his belongings out of their Beverly Hills home while the On the Floor hitmaker was on a solo trip to Italy. This move appears to have been the final nail in the coffin for their struggling marriage, as they were unable to resolve their issues the second time around.
Speaking to Fox News Digital, an insider revealed, “The marriage is completely over, and Jennifer is heartbroken. She loves love and wanted this to work so badly.”
Meanwhile, the Argo actor has thrown himself into work to cope with the media scrutiny surrounding his personal life. “Ben has been working nonstop and spending a lot of time at his office,” the source explained. “He has a lot of projects he’s working on that he’s excited about. He’s quite hands-on with his company (Artists Equity). He really wants to continue focusing on directing, acting, and producing.”
Jennifer and Ben’s marriage was believed to be on the rocks since the beginning of this year. This speculation was underscored when Affleck did not accompany Lopez to the Met Gala in May. The estranged pair is currently living separate lives. Lopez remains in their joint home, while Affleck has found solace in a rental a few miles away in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles.
The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2021 and married in 2022, have been the subject of intense public interest. Despite their efforts to make their relationship work, the pressures of their high-profile lives and differing commitments seem to have taken their toll.
Affleck’s focus on his burgeoning career and numerous projects with Artists Equity has been a significant factor in his ability to cope with the split. On the other hand, Lopez, known for her passion for love and relationships, is struggling with the emotional fallout.
The insider noted, “Jennifer is heartbroken. She loves love and wanted this to work so badly.” This sentiment highlights the profound impact the separation has had on Lopez, who has always been vocal about her belief in love and commitment.
As both stars navigate their separate paths, fans and followers of the couple will undoubtedly continue to watch closely, hoping for a peaceful resolution to their personal challenges.
