Being high-profile figures, the legal process of their divorce is expected to be protracted. Recent reports from Radar Online attribute the delay to financial negotiations, particularly because Lopez aims to leave Affleck financially drained.
“She’s extremely hurt and humiliated and feels like she’s been used. She’s not only mad, but she wants to get even, and to strike where Ben’s most vulnerable: his bank accounts…The way she sees it, he reneged on their sacred vows, and he must pay… From now on, she’s going to look after herself and to hell with him. She’s moving on and she will take half his fortune, too.”
Affleck’s net worth is approximately $150 million, while Lopez’s stands at around $400 million. Despite not needing additional financial support and the potential for an amicable split, J Lo desires retribution for perceived injustices by Affleck.
Signs point to a contentious conclusion to their separation, showcasing the unraveling of their once-envied relationship.
