Hollywood’s favorite couple is on the brink of another breakup.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly heading for divorce, according to insiders.
Fans shocked as Bennifer’s fairytale romance hits the rocks.
This news is a bombshell for fans who saw their fairytale reunion as a sign that love conquers all.
J.Lo and Ben Affleck’s love story!
Lopez and Affleck, who first dated from 2002 to 2004, rekindled their romance in 2021.
They tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in the summer of 2022, capturing hearts worldwide.
Less than two years in, J.Lo and Ben’s marriage falls apart.
But not even two years into their marriage, it appears things are falling apart.
A source told In Touch, “The writing is on the wall – it’s over.”
Ben Affleck shifts focus amidst divorce rumors.
Affleck, the source claims, is focusing on his work and kids now.
“Ben already moved out and they’ll likely have to sell the dream house they spent two years searching for,” the insider revealed.
“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.”
The struggles that led to Bennifer’s split.
The couple’s past is littered with similar struggles.
When they first split in 2004, Affleck’s discomfort with media scrutiny was a significant factor.
Fast forward to 2024, and history seems to be repeating itself.
Bennifer’s publicity problems.
“An ongoing problem in the pair’s relationship was the different ways they handled the spotlight,” In Touch reports.
“Jennifer embraces media attention, while Ben shies away from it.”
The wedge between J.Lo and Ben.
This difference in dealing with fame has once again driven a wedge between them.
Lopez’s career hasn’t been smooth sailing either.
Her latest album received poor reviews, and she had to cancel tour dates due to low ticket sales.
This professional setback has been tough for the pop icon to navigate.
J.Lo Faces public criticism amid divorce drama.
Public perception hasn’t been kind to Lopez recently.
A PR expert commented on her waning popularity, saying the “backlash against her has been bundling for a while.”
Emily Austen, head of the PR agency Emerge, noted that Affleck’s unhappy demeanor hasn’t helped.
“In the shadow of beloved and long-suffering Jennifer Garner, much of the imagery we have seen from J Lo has been mundane,” Austen said.
“Car rides with Ben, curbside arguments, fast food takeaways—often looking miserable. This has shattered the fourth wall, one which we’d all bought into.”
A love doomed by public fascination?
Austen’s analysis suggests that the public’s fascination with Bennifer 2.0 was perhaps doomed from the start.
If the divorce goes through, it could spell trouble for Lopez’s new movie, Unstoppable.
Affleck and his buddy Matt Damon’s company, Artists Equity, are producing the film.
With Affleck potentially exiting her personal life, professional collaborations might become awkward.
Their split could be another professional setback for Lopez.
Affleck’s career, however, seems to be on a steady path.
He’s been focusing on directing and producing, with several projects in the pipeline.
But as their relationship ends, it highlights the harsh reality of maintaining a marriage in the public eye.
