Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck: Behind the scenes of a tumultuous breakup

The love story of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is full of unexpected twists and is certainly one of the most turbulent in Hollywood relationships. Let us remind you that the star couple planned to walk down the aisle at the beginning of the 2000s, but their plans came to nothing. 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 decided to give themselves a second chance after many years. In July 2022, Lopez and Affleck married, demonstrating that "old love never rusts".

During the first months, their relationship looked 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 Lopez and Affleck's marriage. 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 world of show business for several days. Foreign tabloids continually provide readers with new details about their emotional breakup. Recently, the magazine "People" contacted someone from J.Lo's circle concerning the backstage of her stormy relationship with the star of the film "Deep Water". The informant conveyed, among other things, that the hit "On the Floor" performer spent much time caring for her 52-year-old husband and "was like a mother to him, not a wife".

Jennifer spent a lot of time making sure Ben was happy and had everything he needed. The way she took care of him was almost like a child. Her friends kept reminding her that she was not responsible for his feelings.

In the further part of the conversation, their acquaintance focused on the supposedly difficult nature of the 52-year-old, claiming that he is moody, gloomy, and does not handle stress well.

He was very strange and dark at times, and Jennifer is the complete opposite. She's very grateful for everything she has. He doesn't have good stress-handling skills. He gets frustrated easily and is often moody. When he's relaxed and in a good mood, he's wonderful to have around. But more often he is anxious or frustrated. Some little thing will happen and you can already feel a change in his mood. He doesn't really understand that his bad mood affects the people around him. It's just that people are not comfortable having so much negativity around them, writes "People" magazine.
