After a turbulent time marked by recurring allegations and public altercations, it looks like Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are very close to finalizing their divorce. The couple, who were married two years ago and resumed their romance in 2021, has tried numerous times to move over their issues but hasn’t been able to.
The final straw, so to speak, was allegedly Affleck’s purchase of a $20.5 million Pacific Palisades home dubbed a “bachelor pad.” This move came after Lopez sold her New York City apartment for $23 million, signaling a significant shift in the dynamics of their partnership. Furthermore, the pair fueled rumors about their potential breakup by listing their shared Beverly Hills residence for $68 million.
Despite rumors that their attempts to keep their marriage intact had failed, Lopez and her husband celebrated their anniversary and her birthday separately, highlighting the couple’s increasing estrangement from one another. Lopez was reportedly devastated by Affleck’s decision to purchase a new home without first talking to her, referring to it as a “stab in the heart.”
