Despite signs of a marriage in crisis with Ben Affleck purchasing a new home, Jennifer Lopez, the 55-year-old music icon, seems unfazed and continues to enjoy her summer.
After reuniting in 2020 and getting married in 2022, rumors suggest that 2024 may mark the end of their relationship due to reported personality clashes and differences in handling the media.
Affleck has moved to a new home in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, while Lopez jetted off to the East Coast to celebrate her birthday solo, with no reunion with her husband, not even for their anniversary.
Recently, Affleck bought a $20 million property in the Pacific Palisades area, formerly owned by Matthew Perry, using a portion of his $150 million net worth.
Despite this development, Lopez seems carefree, seen smiling in a photo shared on Monday, July 29, dressed in a white jumper without her engagement or wedding ring, looking youthful and carefree.
Affleck’s Friend Shares Insights on Split Speculations
The purchase of a new home by Affleck further fuels rumors of a split with Lopez, indicating their Las Vegas marriage may be beyond repair as they lead separate lives.
Reports claim Lopez was shocked to find Affleck had moved his belongings out of their shared home. Friends, like filmmaker Kevin Smith, admit uncertainty about Affleck’s well-being amid the separation.
Smith shared his reluctance to reach out to Affleck due to the actor’s need for space, implying that only when Affleck is ready will he communicate with his friends.
