Ben Affleck Allegedly 'Regrets' Jennifer Lopez Marriage; Actor Was 'Blinded By Lust': Report
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's bickering affected their intimacy, according to a source.
Affleck and Lopez's marriage has been rumored to be on the rocks, with some sources claiming they are heading for divorce. Another insider claimed to In Touch that the "Gone Girl" actor "regrets" his marriage to the "Marry Me" actress after realizing that he was "blinded by lust" when they reconnected.
"Obviously, when they first got back together, it was electric -- Ben couldn't keep his hands off her, and he now admits he was blinded by lust," the source said. "But the bickering and tension took a toll. He was so burnt out and bored by her diva fits, the physical attraction totally wore off!"
Their arguments also allegedly took a toll on their bedroom antics. The celebrity couple were reportedly not interested in getting intimate all year, and Lopez wasn't happy about it.
"J. Lo privately complains Ben wasn't up to par in the bedroom, that he stopped making an effort and became lazy and boring as a lover," the insider added. "He was sleeping on the other side of the house for months and the consensus is they've barely had intimacy, if any, in 2024."
Affleck and Lopez have been living in separate homes for weeks, although they still reunite at some events involving their kids. Affleck hasn't been seen in his and Lopez's marital home and has rented a property in the Brentwood neighborhood near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner's house. Meanwhile, Lopez was also seen house hunting with her producing partner, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, sans the "Justice League" actor last month.
The listing of their $60.85 million mansion in a Zillow ad on June 1 and June 5 further fueled the divorce rumors. The couple searched for two years before they found their love nest. However, now that they've been living in separate homes, the property reappeared on the realtor's website despite being listed as sold.
"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," a source who claimed their marriage was heading for divorce previously said.
Lopez and Affleck first dated in the early 2000s. However, they called off their 2003 wedding and split. They reunited in 2021 after she ended her engagement to Alex Rodriguez and eloped in Las Vegas in July 2022.
