Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are seemingly headed for a split as their relationship faces challenges, prompting the 51-year-old actor to make changes in his life, what has he done?
Affleck and Lopez, 55, tied the knot in 2022 after rekindling their romance in 2020, but their differences in handling media attention, privacy, and busy schedules might lead to a separation.
In response, the male half of ‘Bennifer’ has transformed his appearance by sporting a faux-hawk haircut, a leather biker jacket, sunglasses, and a Red Hot Chilli Peppers t-shirt, giving off a rugged biker vibe rather than his usual Hollywood persona.
The visible change of a shaved head and the absence of his wedding ring were notable as he hopped on a motorcycle and departed to another location in the Los Angeles area.
This isn’t the first time Affleck has displayed unconventional behavior during a potential breakup; when separating from Jennifer Garner, he famously got a large back tattoo of a phoenix, passing it off as being for a film role.
Lopez-Affleck divorce imminent as papers drawn up
The situation has deteriorated to the extent that they didn’t spend their anniversary or Lopez‘s birthday together. The husband has moved into a new $20 million mansion in Pacific Palisades, California, after clearing out personal belongings from their shared residence.
Meanwhile, Lopez has been seen without her wedding or engagement rings, opting to remove all jewelry associated with her husband and their marriage. Reports suggest that divorce papers have already been prepared.
The divorce papers were finalized about a month ago,” a source close to the couple disclosed to DailyMail.com. “They’re simply waiting for the right moment to announce them.
“At that point, they will issue a joint statement expressing their enduring love for each other and how hard they tried to sustain the relationship but eventually couldn’t.”
