Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s relationship has certainly seen its fair share of highs and lows. Coming in and out of each other’s lives, the pair finally got married in 2022 and gained their own fan following of sorts. Unfortunately, a source close to them has recently spoken about their relationship, and things do not seem to be good.
Not only did this anonymous insider claim that the pair are out of their ‘honeymoon phase’, but they also hinted that their flame might be dwindling and the couple might be heading towards divorce. The alleged reasons for this are quite surprising.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Have Allegedly Grown Apart
Recently, a source close to Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck talked about the ins and outs of their relationship to US Weekly, and things do not seem very positive from the picture they painted. Although the pair have been very affectionate and publicly close, there have been cracks that fans cannot see to let go of, and these comments are only adding fuel to the fire.
“He’s been checked out,” the source says, noting that the pair are on “two completely different pages most of the time. The honeymoon phase has worn off.”
The insider claimed that both of them have grown apart quite a bit in the past few months, even referring to it as the end of their honeymoon phase. They also added that Affleck has “checked” out of their marriage, and their distance seems to be the reason for this.
Affleck and Lopez Have Two Different Lifestyles
In the documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told, Affleck once commented on how different both he and Jennifer Lopez are, early in their marriage. While earlier the comments about their different personalities, ideologies, and lifestyles were more in regards to compromise, it now seems that this exact factor is becoming a roadblock.
[We are] two people with different kinds of approaches trying to learn to compromise.
Later in the interview, the source claimed that one of the biggest reasons for their emotional distance is the choices they make in their personal lives. More specifically, they mentioned that Ben Affleck does not support the financial decisions Jennifer Lopez takes or her approach when it comes to raising her children.
It is safe to say that this is a very big issue to have in a marriage and could even lead to its end, as was suggested by the source.
