Jennifer Lopez is having a tumultuous time. Besides her career facing challenges, her relationship with Ben Affleck also seems to be in trouble. The singer is reportedly terrified of another divorce. "She’s saying she can’t imagine a scenario where she can exist without Ben in her life," reports an insider close to the star.
Jennifer Lopez finds herself in a difficult situation. Problems in her personal life intertwine with those in her professional life, and the media are already predicting the end of her career. In this challenging moment, the diva cannot count on the support of Ben Affleck, who is allegedly fed up with her. The crisis in their relationship severely impacts the star's well-being, reflected in her behaviour: the singer, known for her discipline, is finding it increasingly difficult to keep herself together.
Even cancelling the tour promoting her latest album, which she decided on with the thought of saving her marriage, didn't help. Their Beverly Hills mansion, worth $60 million, which they bought together after their wedding, has just been put up for sale, which doesn't bode well. According to In Touch magazine, the celebrity swallowed her pride and pleaded with her husband not to give up on this love.
J. Lo left this decision to cancel her tour until the very last second, reports a person close to the star. It was a very hard call for her to make. But then she had a crisis meeting where it was explained to her just how bad ticket sales were and the general consensus was that she’d save face by calling the whole thing off, which was obviously a huge blow, as she was so looking forward to going back on the road and getting comfort from her fans.
Lopez hopes to reason with Ben and convince him to give her one last chance. A third divorce in her career after just a few years of marriage would be an enormous failure, so she prefers to wish away the reality that such a scenario has no chance of coming true.
As long as no paperwork is actually filed, Jen is still clinging to the possibility, however remote, that they’ll be able to turn things around – adds the insider. She is crying all the time and very upset. She goes from anger one minute, to despair, to panic attacks, to then deluding herself that it’s all just a blip and they’re going to be OK.
Although Jen and Ben have not yet filed divorce papers, they are reportedly living separately, with the actor currently residing in a rented house in Brentwood, California.
It’s very clear that [Jen’s] fallen to pieces – reports the insider. She’s saying she can’t imagine a scenario where she can exist without Ben in her life, which is putting a ton of pressure on him and not really helping the situation.
