Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez to file for DIVORCE after brutal birthday swipe

As a seasoned observer of celebrity lives, I must say that the tumultuous love story between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez has been nothing short of captivating. Having followed their journey since the early days of “Bennifer,” I can’t help but feel a sense of déjà vu as they navigate through what appears to be another challenging phase in their relationship.


Jennifer Lopez’s love may not cost a thing, but her divorce to Ben Affleck sure will. 

According to friends who spoke to DailyMail.com, it appears that the 51-year-old actor from “The Last Duel” and the renowned 55-year-old singer have decided to move forward with their divorce again, as efforts to reconcile in recent weeks did not succeed.

According to various reports, the divorce papers for the couple have been completed, but they haven’t been submitted yet.

On July 24th, as J-Lo celebrated her 55th birthday, reports emerged about Affleck purchasing a new $20.5 million mansion in Pacific Palisades – his latest bachelor pad.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but feel a pang of sadness when I think about how the acquisition of Affleck’s new bachelor pad on Lopez’s birthday seemed like a dagger straight to her heart, according to those close to Lopez.

His purchase came days after the couple listed their Beverly Hills mansion for $68 million.

On July 24th, I couldn’t help but feel a thrill, as it was the day J.Lo officially sealed the deal on her stunning four-bedroom New York City penthouse, setting the price at an impressive $23 million – a fact confirmed by People magazine.

A fortnight has passed since I signed the divorce documents with her, but I’m biding my time before making that move public, according to someone in-the-know about our situation.

In due course, they will publish a unified declaration expressing their deep affection for one another and their efforts to sustain their relationship, yet acknowledging the insurmountable obstacles they encountered.

According to reports, they ultimately failed to reach an agreement. What they once shared no longer exists, and they’ve both moved on from that fact.

DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Affleck and Lopez for comment. 

Over the past few months, they haven’t been seen together. During the summer, Jennifer was mostly on the eastern seaboard, whereas Ben stayed put in his Los Angeles residence.

They even spent their second wedding anniversary on July 16th in different cities.

Rumors about the marital struggles between Affleck and Lopez started spreading in May. A trusted source mentioned that Ben had taken up residence in a $100,000 rental, and the couple were planning to put their cherished house on the market.

Affleck’s home was just a short drive from ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s Brentwood house. 

The couple were married from 2005 to 2018, and share children Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12. 

Affleck’s bachelor residence is essentially a luxurious millionaire’s home, boasting five bedrooms, six baths, complete with breakfast and dining areas, a distinct family room, study, walk-in wardrobes, a media room, a powder room, and even an independent guest house.

The home was designed by architect Cliff May.  

The penthouse Lopez sold is a four-bedroom, 7.5-bath duplex.

In May 2023, Lopez and Affleck purchased a house worth $60 million, but as of now, they haven’t managed to find someone willing to buy it right away.

Rumors about troubles in Affleck and Lopez’s marriage started spreading in May, as they hadn’t been spotted together since late March.

According to a source, it was reported then: ‘Ben had left their home already, and it seems they might need to put up their cherished house – the one they searched for diligently over two years – on sale.’

Their affection for one another is eternal, yet she finds it impossible to manage him, while he remains unyielding in his ways. Regardless of their deep love, change seems an insurmountable obstacle between them, making a lasting relationship seem unlikely.

From 2005 to 2018, he was married to Garner (aged 52), and they have three children together: Violet (18 years old), Fin (15 years old), and Samuel who is 12 years old.

According to one of Lopez’s friends based in Los Angeles, if the situation just requires effort, then you can be certain that [Jen] will manage to improve the situation.

According to the source, she’s deeply invested in her relationship with Ben and won’t let go easily. It seems there’s still a great deal of affection between them, suggesting there might be a chance for reconciliation.

It’s thought that Lopez is currently residing in New York City, having just celebrated her birthday on the 24th of July in the Hamptons.

The couple also spent the Fourth of July weekend apart.

On July 16, 2022, Affleck and Lopez got married at A Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas. Later in the same year, they exchanged vows once more in a grand ceremony held in Georgia during the following month.

Following her party themed around the TV show “Bridgerton”, Lopez expressed gratitude to her 251 million followers on Instagram for their messages via a mysterious social media post.

Lopez admitted to being ‘fragile’ and declared her fans as her ‘biggest gift.’
