Jennifer Lopez Is 'Over' Saving Doomed Marriage With Ben Affleck Amid 'Imminent Divorce' Rumors
Jennifer Lopez is done with her marriage to Ben Affleck and has reportedly accepted that things are getting worse between the two of them amid the divorce rumors.
For weeks, Lopez, 54, and Affleck, 51, have been plagued with divorce rumors. Also, they have been living separately and just put their $60 million marital mansion for sale. Regardless, the two have been spotted on multiple occasions amid the split rumors, usually related to his children's activities. However, Lopez is reportedly "over" trying to save their marriage.
"Jenny has had enough, and she really tried, but she can do no more, it's not getting any better, it's worse," an unnamed source told the Daily Mail.
The tipster claimed that the "Marry Me" actress left Affleck because he was "grumpy and negative" like Oscar the Grouch from "Sesame Street."
"Ben is a great guy, but he can be grumpy and a downer. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn't smile. If they saw how it really was, they would not attack her," a friend of Lopez said.
"He chain smokes and cusses and seems irritated a lot of the time. Great director and actor, but not a lot of laughs with him, you know? He is a wonderful father, though."
Lopez is reportedly "shocked" by the bad press and not used to "bad feedback." However, she will "march on." The "Let's Get Loud" singer is reportedly moving on and is excited to resume her canceled "This Is Me...Live" tour in 2025.
The insider said JLo is "very smart and strong" and she "will bounce back" as "she always does."
Another user previously spoke with In Touch about the same issue. The tipster, however, claimed that Lopez was wasting no time moving on from the "Batman" star.
"The split is getting nasty. She isn't wasting any time moving on from Ben," the source claimed. "She went to the Met Gala alone, she went out to dinner on Mother's Day without him, and now she's looking for a new home for herself after they had spent months searching for their dream home."
Another insider claimed that Lopez told everyone they would go through the alleged marital strife. However, Affleck reportedly refused to budge, and it was "pretty clear a divorce is imminent."
Cindy Adams, a gossip columnist and writer, also weighed in on the matter. She called Lopez "desperate" for clinging to Affleck.
"She's now desperate to pretend temp Affleck is still happy happy with her. Why? Because it's embarrassing," Adams wrote in a column for the New York Post.
Lopez was previously married to Ojani Noa (1997-1998), Cris Judd (2001-2003) and Marc Anthony (2004-2014) before Affleck. She and Affleck dated in the early 2000s and were set to marry in 2003, but they canceled their wedding and called off their engagement.
They reunited nearly 20 years later, in 2021, after Lopez called off her engagement to Alex Rodriguez. However, her first husband, Noa, previously predicted her fourth marriage would not work.
"I wish her and Ben the best, but I'm not convinced it will last," Noa told the Daily Mail in 2022.
"Jen loves being in love, but she's been engaged six times. Ben is husband number four. I was husband number one, and she told me I was the love of her life. When we lay in bed on our wedding night, she said we would be together forever."
