Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck’s Divorce: Real Reason Behind Bennifer's Separation Revealed

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly going through a rough patch in their marriage. The couple, who tied the knot in July 2022, is facing trouble in their paradise. While both actors have maintained silence on the matter, their public spottings without wedding rings and the sale of their mansion post marriage continue to fuel rumours.

Reason behind Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s separation

According to reports, Jennifer Lopez’s new cocktail line was the final straw in her relationship as it challenged a sober Affleck. A source close to the couple claimed that the On the Floor singer's new alcohol brand was the reason behind her split with her husband.

Since Affleck is recovering and staying sober, he found Jennifer Lopez’s alcohol brand, Delola, as an insult to his struggles with maintaining sobriety. Many reports suggest that the couple has not been seen publicly together since March of this year, and this news has further added fuel to the rumours of their separation. 

The speculations of something going wrong between the couple grew when Ben missed several events with Lopez including the Met Gala, which she co-chaired, and her Atlas movie premiere.

Since then, their $68 million marital home has also been listed for sale. Jennifer and Ben are yet to address the reports, but a source close to them said they are trying to be as amicable as possible during this time.
