Rumors are swirling around Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez like storm clouds. The couple’s troubled marriage is on the brink of collapse, with divorce appearing more likely just two years after their quick wedding in Las Vegas.
Affleck and Lopez are currently living apart amidst ongoing uncertainty about the fate of their tumultuous relationship. A close friend of Affleck reportedly cautioned him that rekindling his romance with Lopez would lead to more problems than solutions – a prediction that seems to be coming true.
Concerns about Affleck’s Potential Alcoholism Relapse
Matt Damon has been a long-standing confidant of Affleck, and he has been a pillar of support as Affleck’s marriage to Lopez unravels. A recent report from the Daily Mail sheds light on Damon‘s attempts to dissuade Affleck from marrying Lopez in 2022.
An insider revealed that Damon had warned Affleck of the possible consequences if he reunited with Lopez. “Matt was there to help Ben get it together after their first split, and he felt like this would happen again,” the source disclosed.
Damon, who has been married to his wife Luciana Barroso for 18 years, is concerned about Affleck potentially relapsing into alcoholism. He has advised Affleck to concentrate on work, particularly their joint venture, Artists Equity, the independent production company established by the duo in 2022.
Despite being cautioned against marrying JLo, Affleck still regards Damon as his “true friend,” and their relationship seems unscathed. However, only time will reveal whether Affleck can bounce back amidst rumors of a potential tumultuous end to his second marriage.
