As I delve into this tale of love, work, and juggling a busy career, I can’t help but empathize with Jennifer Lopez, a woman who seems to have it all – or at least tries to keep it all. With a life that is more jam-packed than a New York City subway during rush hour, it’s no wonder her marriage hit a snag.


Last week, Jennifer Lopez stunned fans by announcing the end of her two-year long marriage with Ben Affleck.

52-year-old Rihanna, known for her hit “On The Floor,” is feeling deeply disheartened and let down after her separated spouse, also 52, took an action that didn’t meet her expectations.

On Tuesday, August 20th, I formally initiated divorce proceedings against my partner, who was famously known for his role in Argo. I stated the reasons behind our separation as ‘irreconcilable differences.’ Additionally, I noted April 26, 2024 as the day we parted ways.

As I reflect on my latest findings, I can confidently say that the news about Ben has taken a significant toll on her. To put it mildly, she’s feeling quite distressed and disheartened by the situation.

This occurs following whispers suggesting that Affleck has been spending time lately with RFK Jr.’s daughter Kick Kennedy, who is 36 years old.

According to sources who spoke to DailyMail.com, Kick and Ben appear to be spending quality time together, but the writer is keeping silent about their relationship due to concerns about being perceived as involved in an affair.

In 2021, the couple who won an Oscar together (previously) had a short-lived romance, but then reignited their relationship, as was seen with Jennifer Lopez and him.

The source emphasized that the romantic involvement of the pair never intersected or coincided with the actor’s romantic connection with Jennifer.

During his marriage, they did not engage in any extramarital relationships. However, it’s intriguing to note that as soon as the divorce was finalized, Kick’s friends find it peculiar that Ben has been spending time with an old acquaintance who is considered high-society by her family.

Regarding Kick’s opinion on the actor, an insider shared: ‘She considers him intelligent and fitting her taste, yet she’s maintaining a strict silence since she doesn’t wish to appear as his mistress.’

‘She is not a mistress. She is nothing like JLo and likes to keep her private life private.’

On Wednesday, an insider close to the situation revealed that Jennifer has grown uneasy about residing in the $60 million Beverly Hills house she previously shared with Ben and their children, as she’s no longer finding it suitable for her comfort.

They shared that both she and Ben purchased a home large enough for their entire family. However, it turns out to be excessively spacious for just the two of them, and it’s also overflowing with recollections that make it too emotionally heavy for her.

In May 2023, following almost two years of searching, the couple finally bought an astonishing 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom residence that had been their dream home.

They’ve had difficulty selling their house, which is listed at $68 million, since June. More recently, Ben has purchased a $20 million bachelor pad in Pacific Palisades.

It’s been claimed that Ben’s ‘bad moods’ plays a role in the downfall of their two-year marriage.

I shared on Tuesday that I, much like a devoted caregiver, have been diligently looking after my spouse, pouring in countless hours of nurturing and support.

The report mentioned that Ben frequently felt deeply frustrated and would retreat into a more somber state of mind, despite having a stunning spouse (Jennifer Garner) and three lovely kids together.

According to the source, Jennifer indeed put in a considerable amount of effort to ensure that Ben was content and well-provided for.

Additionally, it was pointed out that Ben bore a closer resemblance to her as a son rather than a partner, despite the fact that he is just three years younger than her.

‘The way she cared for him was almost childlike,’ the source continued.

Her friends kept encouraging her, saying it wasn’t her duty to manage his emotions. In other words, they emphasized that it wasn’t her responsibility to control his feelings.

‘He’s very moody and dark at times.’

Instead, Jennifer seems to value life differently. She’s particularly thankful for all she has.

Indeed, she used to have a painting that read Gratitude Attitude in her home.

Another source close to Garner told the site that he ‘has never handled stress well.’

According to the source, he lacks effective problem-solving abilities, frequently becoming agitated and somewhat temperamental. However, when he’s calm and in a good state of mind, it’s truly enjoyable to be near him. Unfortunately, he’s usually in an irritable or frustrated state instead.

‘Many times, it’s just something small that he gets stuck on,’ the source added.

He seems unaware of how his grumpiness impacts others. It’s not enjoyable interacting with such a cloud of pessimism.

But Affleck ‘thrives’ when it comes to his children or his work. 

According to the source, he excels when he has work tasks at hand. Not only that, but he has also shown remarkable skills with his children. It appears he is living his desired lifestyle, as he seems extremely contented.

People also claimed that the couple drifted apart due to ‘geographical separation’, since Lopez had to travel extensively for her job.

She was busy nonstop after the two got back together in 2021.

After swearing her undying loyalty as his wife, this Grammy-winning actress found herself connected to a grand total of eight motion pictures. In these projects, she not only acted but also assumed the role of producer, and remarkably, she even composed the music for these movies.

Beyond these accomplishments, she also starred in a Coach ad campaign, marketed her JLo Beauty products, unveiled Delola brand, and produced fresh tunes.

In 2021, they reunited following a seventeen-year separation, and in August of 2022, they held their wedding ceremony in Georgia, having first eloped secretly in Las Vegas.

Instead of slowing down to nurture love, Jennifer Lopez from The Block appeared to remain consistently active. Given her past declarations about her passion for work, this level of busyness was to be expected.

The Bronx native spent plenty of time promoting her 2022 film Marry Me with events in LA and NYC.

She costarred with Owen Wilson in the love story and had music to go with it too.

Following this, there was the release of “Shotgun Wedding” starring Josh Duhamel, which hit the screens in 2022. She put in a great deal of effort to generate buzz for this production that she herself had produced as well.

In 2023, she worked on The Mother.

However, a significant portion of my efforts was dedicated to promoting “This Is Me… Now” and “The Greatest Love Story Never Told,” which I worked on earlier this year.

And there was yet another project for her to plug: Atlas, a sci-fi film.

Additionally, Lopez was involved in another project: he filmed “Unstoppable” alongside his friend Matt Damon, which co-stars Ben. The premiere of this movie takes place in Toronto during September.

And she also filmed his upcoming movie Kiss Of The Spider Woman earlier this year.

She planned a summer tour, but canceled it to focus on her family.

Over the last few years, she traveled to New York City approximately a dozen times, made multiple journeys to Europe, and also visited Dubai.

Despite her busy life, she put forth significant effort to keep things going, according to a source who spoke to People. Now, she is feeling sadness due to the conclusion of the marriage.

Next up for Jennifer: She will promote Ben’s film Unstoppable in Toronto.

Jennifer headlines in the movie “Unstoppable,” a production by her former spouse, and it is scheduled for its premiere at the forthcoming Toronto International Film Festival in Canada on September 6.
