Are Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Headed For Divorce?

All eyes were on Jennifer Lopez at the Atlas red carpet last night, but not for her designer outfit or the sci-fi spectacle. Rumours have been swirling about her marriage to Ben Affleck being on the rocks. Making a stunning solo appearance, Lopez exuded boss lady vibes, while Affleck was notably absent. This comes after the actor missed her major Met Gala appearance, further fueling separation speculations, and now skipping her film premiere as well.

Jennifer Lopez shined at the sci-fi gala premiere at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood on May 20. Smiling for the photographers, she proudly displayed her wedding band, suggesting that the separation rumours might still be just —rumours. Rocking a monochrome outfit, the Jenny from the Block singer posed alongside her co-stars Simu Liu and Sterling K. Brown, as well as the film’s director, Brad Peyton.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's relationship seems to have hit another bump in the road. Despite Lopez's heartfelt attempts to express her love through a $20 million musical film trilogy, a single, and a documentary, the couple has reportedly encountered serious issues in their marriage, just under two years after tying the knot.

Lopez, known as the 'Queen of Dance', has dedicated a significant portion of her recent work to Affleck. Her multi-hyphenate musical sci-fi film This Is Me... Now: A Love Story, her single This Is Me... Now, and the Amazon Prime documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told are all expressions of her deep affection for Affleck. However, these grand gestures appear to have fallen short of preventing trouble in their relationship.

Are Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Headed for Divorce?

In Touch Weekly has recently reported that Affleck has "moved out" of their shared home, citing an unnamed source who claims, "The writing is on the wall—it’s over... They’re headed for a divorce—and for once, [Ben’s] not to blame!" This news comes as a surprise to many fans who have been following the couple’s romantic journey.

On May 6, Lopez served as one of the Met Gala co-chairs, a significant event in the fashion world. However, Affleck was notably absent, missing the chance to support his wife during her red-carpet appearance. Initial reports suggested his absence was due to filming commitments for The Accountant 2. Yet, In Touch Weekly’s latest claims indicate a different reason: Affleck had already decided to end their relationship.

Since rekindling their romance, Lopez and Affleck have handled their public personas differently. Lopez has embraced the spotlight, being the subject of various stories and projects. In contrast, Affleck has minimised his public presence, choosing to stay out of the media as much as possible. He has expressed his desire to keep their relationship private, which has proven challenging given Lopez's high-profile career.

In Jenny From the Block's documentary, Affleck revealed his struggle with the media attention on their relationship: "Getting back together, I said, ‘Listen, one of the things I don’t want is a relationship on social media.’ Then I sort of realised it wasn't a fair thing to ask. It’s sort of like, you’re going to marry a boat captain, and you go, ‘Well, I don’t want the water.’ We’re trying to learn to compromise."

Divorce Rumours and Public Speculation

The latest report by In Touch Weekly has reignited rumours of a potential divorce. This isn't the first time the couple has faced such speculation, but the claim that Affleck has moved out adds a new layer of seriousness to the situation. Fans and media alike are watching closely to see how the situation unfolds.
