elebrity couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, the lovebirds who recently rekindled their early 2000s romance, are now facing a media firestorm of divorce rumors. This comes just two years after their highly publicized wedding, reigniting discussions about the challenges of Hollywood relationships and second chances.
The rumors began with the couple’s noticeable absence from public events together. After their last public sighting in late March, Lopez has been seen solo on numerous occasions, including at the 2024 Met Gala, where she served as a co-chair. This sparked tabloid speculation, with some outlets citing “unnamed sources” and claiming the couple is headed for divorce.
In Touch Weekly went a step further, alleging Affleck has “moved out” of their shared residence. The source noted that the “Deep Water” actor “decided to call it quits” on his marriage to Jennifer. “He’s focusing on his work and his kids now. Ben already moved out and they’ll likely have to sell the dream house they spent two years searching for.”
The source paints a picture of incompatibility, stating, “They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her.” The documentary, “The Greatest Love Story Never Told,” released in February 2024 on Prime Video and chronicling JLo’s life and career, is also said to have caused tension, which has resulted in the breakup of the union, with some reports suggesting Ben was uncomfortable with the level of personal detail it revealed about their relationship.

Jennifer Lopez added fuel to the rumor mill when she was spotted house hunting in LA after the divorce speculations with her husband, Ben Affleck, went mainstream. On Tuesday, May 14, the mother-of-two was seen looking for a house with her production partner, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, in Beverly Hills without Ben. “The Mother” actress was spotted wearing a white oversized sweatshirt with matching pants paired with hoop earrings, evoking an effortless, stress-free aura that seems to highlight her relaxed approach to the rumors.
However, there is no confirmation from either JLo or Ben regarding the breakup gossip. This lack of official comment further fuels the media frenzy, with fans desperately searching for clues on social media.
While some celebrity news outlets paint a bleak picture, others urge caution. People Magazine, for instance, points out that the couple has weathered public scrutiny before, during their first engagement in the early 2000s. They also note that Affleck has been absent from public events for personal reasons in the past.
It’s important to remember that celebrity marriages are under constant public scrutiny, and even small details can be blown out of proportion. The lack of public appearances together doesn’t necessarily signify marital trouble.
Ultimately, Lopez and Affleck’s personal life is theirs to navigate. While the public will undoubtedly remain curious, it’s important to respect their privacy. Only time will reveal if “Bennifer” can write another chapter in their love story or if this marks the end of their whirlwind romance.
