Jennifer Lopez finds herself at the center of swirling divorce rumors as her marriage to Ben Affleck appears to be in turmoil. Reports suggest that the Gone Girl actor has started moving his belongings out of their $60 million mansion, fueling speculation about an impending split.
Jennifer Lopez Isn’t Happy with Her Portrayal
Jennifer Lopez is reportedly growing “frustrated” with the public perception that she is the “difficult one” in the relationship. According to a source close to the couple, Ben Affleck is the one with a “dark cloud hanging over his head,” and his behavior is causing strain not just on their marriage but on his relationships with others around him.
The insider told RadarOnline that Ben might be better off taking some time off work amid the ongoing media frenzy about his personal life. “It’s probably not a wise decision for him to keep working while all these headlines are coming out about his personal life,” the source said, suggesting that Ben needs a month off to “relax and recharge.”
Moving Out and Moving On?
Reports indicate that Ben has been living in a rental property in Brentwood for more than a month. He allegedly moved his belongings out of the Beverly Hills home he shared with Jennifer while she was on holiday in Europe, attending Paris Fashion Week after a stop in Italy.
“Ben continues to live at the Brentwood rental. He’s been there for about two months now,” a source revealed to People. Another insider added, “He seems okay. He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids.”
Jennifer Lopez’s Public Appearance
Jennifer Lopez has been spotted out and about in Los Angeles without Ben, including a recent lunch outing with her child Emme. Observers noted that she looked tense, dressed in a more casual outfit than her usual glamorous style. The singer wore black pin-stripe dress pants and a white button-down shirt, pairing the ensemble with trendy black ballet flats instead of her signature stilettos.
