The media is abuzz with news about the impending divorce of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. An informant from a tabloid revealed that the actor is deeply affected by the current situation, and those close to him fear that the 52-year-old may relapse into his old habits...

In show business, nothing lasts forever, especially marriages. This has been recently proven by Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, who, for a long time after rekindling their relationship, were considered one of the most popular couples in the media world. Although the former partners are still married, their divorce seems imminent. In mid-August, just a few days after the actor's birthday, his wife personally filed for divorce.

Foreign media outlets are closely following the turbulent breakup of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. The tabloids are revealing behind-the-scenes details of the star couple's relationship, while numerous paparazzi track almost every move of the spouses. The parties involved are striving to ensure that their divorce proceeds without unnecessary conflict, particularly as a significant sum of money is at stake.

Although the media regularly receives photos of Ben, who, despite his marital problems, appears to be happy, the reality is said to be quite different. According to an informant from "In Touch Weekly", the actor is currently struggling with a sense of guilt. Additionally, his breakdown is exacerbated by the damage to his reputation caused by the divorce.

Ben may appear happy and cheerful, and he is most of the time, but he certainly has his down moments. (...) His reputation has taken a big hit, and he is struggling with many regrets," the informant explained.

Ben Affleck's alcohol problem

Ben Affleck's alcohol problem has resurfaced. The actor has been struggling with addiction since the age of 15. According to the source from "In Touch Weekly", those close to him are worried that he might return to his old ways. The 52-year-old can count not only on his brother or mother but also on the support of friends and even his previous wife.

There is always a fear that he will relapse when things get tough. (...) His mother, brother, and close friends, like Matt Damon, are also helping, he stated.

Everyone is in contact with him and with each other. They are a team and act as a support group. If they see something that should concern them, they immediately alert each other. Ben knows that they are all in contact, but he doesn't know to what extent, added the informant from "In Touch Weekly".
