Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck split: Inside a turbulent marriage

Foreign media are keeping up with the stormy breakup of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. One tabloid revealed behind-the-scenes details of the actor couple’s relationship. According to an informant from "People," J.Lo did not have it easy with her moody husband and "the way she cared for him was almost childlike".

The love story of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is full of unexpected twists and turns and certainly ranks among the most turbulent in Hollywood relationships. Let us remind you that the actor couple planned to walk down the aisle in the early 2000s, but their plans came to nothing then. Jen and Ben started families with other partners, and everything indicated their paths would never cross again – but it turned out differently! To the delight of many fans, the artistic duo gave themselves a second chance after years apart. In July 2022, Lopez and Affleck got married, demonstratively showing that "old love never rusts."

For the first few months, their relationship seemed like a fairy tale – a lavish wedding, public appearances, romantic photos, and J.Lo’s songs celebrating their love created an idyllic atmosphere. Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever. At the beginning of 2024, there were increasing reports of a severe crisis in the marriage of Lopez and Affleck. A week ago, everything became clear - the media reported that Jennifer had officially filed for divorce.

The divorce of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck has undoubtedly been one of the hottest topics in the show business world for a few days. Foreign tabloids continuously provide readers with new details about their highly emotional breakup. Recently, the magazine "People" contacted someone from J.Lo’s circle about the behind-the-scenes of her turbulent relationship with the star of the movie "Deep Water." The informant revealed, among other things, that the hit "On the Floor" performer spent a lot of time taking care of her 52-year-old husband and was "like a mother to him."

[Jennifer] did spend a lot of time making sure Ben was happy and had everything he needed. The way she cared for him was almost childlike. Friends constantly reminded her that she’s not responsible for his feelings - the source told the magazine about it.

In the later part of the conversation, Bennifer's friend focused on the 52-year-old's allegedly difficult character, claiming that he is moody and gloomy and does not cope well with stress.

He’s very moody and dark at times. Jennifer appreciates life in another way. She’s very grateful for everything. [Ben] has never handled stress well. He doesn’t have good coping skills. He gets easily frustrated and tends to be moody. When he’s relaxed and in a good mood, it’s amazing to be around him. But more often, he’s upset or frustrated. Many times, it’s just something small that he gets stuck on. He really doesn’t understand how his bad mood affects people around him. It’s just not fun being around that kind of negativity - we read in the pages of "People."
