The Real Reason Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Are Delaying Their Divorce Announcement
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have been the center of media attention for several months, with ongoing speculation about their relationship status. Despite numerous rumors about their separation, the couple has yet to make an official statement.
Recent reports suggest that someone close to the couple wants to clarify the situation. Although there are widespread assumptions about their marriage ending, neither Lopez nor Affleck has confirmed this publicly. According to a source, the couple is waiting to announce their split to ensure the process is smooth and considerate for everyone involved. They aim to handle the separation with as much care and sensitivity as possible.
From an outside perspective, their separation seems likely, as they haven’t been seen together for some time. Lopez recently vacationed in Europe without Affleck and celebrated her 55th birthday without him present.
The couple has five children between them—Affleck with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner and Lopez with her ex-husband Marc Anthony. The source emphasized that they are focused on making the transition easy for their children, ensuring they are comfortable and well-adjusted to any changes.
Affleck, who has recently moved into a new home, reportedly feels optimistic about this change. His new place is closer to his children with Garner, allowing for better co-parenting. He appreciates the new environment, which he believes will support his personal and professional growth.
Lopez, on her part, is also looking to move forward and end this chapter amicably. Although the timing of their separation made her birthday more challenging, she is receiving support from her friends and family as she navigates this period.
This is not the first time Lopez and Affleck have been together. They were previously engaged from 2002 to 2004, but their engagement was called off. They rekindled their relationship in 2021 and were married in Las Vegas in July 2022.
