Ben Affleck ‘has woken up about his dream marriage with Jennifer Lopez’

‘Actor Ben Affleck is said to be disillusioned with his marriage with Jennifer Lopez and feels there are many differences that cause tension.

A source told Page Six about Ben Affleck: “If there was a way to get a divorce on the grounds of temporary insanity, he would do it. Ben feels as if the past two years have been just a strange dream. Now he has regained consciousness and understands that everything is not okay.”

Another source told ET that one of the couple’s problems was due to Jennifer Lopez’s expectations being too high. “Ben feels that Jennifer is difficult to satisfy. That is one of the problems they are facing. Ben is someone who can comfortably be honest with Jen. She loves Ben for that but this is also the reason made her uncomfortable with him.”

According to sources, J.Lo always maintains her public image and is influenced by people’s opinions while Ben lives a simpler life. The fact that the On the Floor singer has made too much of her private life public in recent times is also said to be the cause of conflict between them.

After nearly two years of marriage, Bennifer now “needs time apart to reflect on what’s going on and figure out what she wants,” the source said.

TMZ reported that the Hollywood star couple is living separately in two different places in Los Angeles. Jennifer Lopez still lives in the $60 million mansion she and her husband bought last year while Ben lives in a rented house near the home of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their children.

Ben Affleck was seen taking off his wedding ring over the weekend, then putting it back on. After two months of not appearing together, Ben and J.Lo met last week at the actor’s daughter’s school, but they did not hug or kiss or show any intimate gestures.

Jennifer Lopez appeared alone at the Met Gala in early May. Earlier this week, she also attended the premiere of Atlas – the movie she starred in and co-produced.

In an interview with People at the film’s screening, Jennifer Lopez did not discuss her love life, but she said that she, like the female character in the film, “sometimes gets misunderstood by people”. The 54-year-old star added that she and her character are both “very strong and certain about what they feel”. However, the difference is that the character has a closed personality while she has too many emotions.

Jennifer Lopez married Ben Affleck in July 2022 after a year of falling back in love. They dated in the early 2000s, got engaged and planned a wedding, but broke up in early 2004.
