Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck: Behind the scenes of a troubled marriage
American magazines are competing to publish new findings about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's likely split. A newly published report indicates that their marriage has not been going well for a long time.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck made a picture-perfect couple. Fans of love stories right out of the cheesiest romantic comedies strongly supported the artist couple, between whom a fiery passion rekindled after 20 years. The well-acquainted spouses did not shy away from attending star-studded events, ostentatiously embracing in front of photographers.
Over time, it turned out that the new persona of the actor, who seamlessly fit the role of a social lion, was just a well-acted facade. His wife's love for mingling with Hollywood elites increasingly overwhelmed him. The bubble of their happy personal life burst in an instant, and the spouses started to avoid each other.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had mutual arguments
The magazine "Us Weekly" published an extensive article detailing the most talked-about split of recent months. Journalists thoroughly analyzed all the disturbing signals that indicated the end of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's romantic relationship. For this purpose, they relied on the always invaluable people around the couple and even experts who used the argument of the "ended honeymoon phase."
Both have demanding careers that often require them to be in different cities. However, Jennifer is too focused on her work, and she is overly involved. Ben couldn't tolerate Jen's lifestyle. He felt "tired" of the marriage - said an insider quoted by the magazine.
Friends of "Bennifer" were reportedly witnesses to their frequent arguments. When the partners could spend time together, they preferred to waste it on silent treatments.
Over time, it became increasingly difficult for Jennifer and Ben to communicate effectively, and minor misunderstandings turned into serious fights. They have fundamentally different approaches to many matters - added the insider.
The magazine also mentioned their drastically different views on parenting and finances, which consequently "exacerbated" their marital problems.
