‘It’s Good That She…’: Jennifer Lopez Filing Divorce From Ben Affleck On Wedding Anniversary Speaks For Itself, Claims Source

As a long-time fan who has followed their rollercoaster romance since the early 2000s, it’s hard to process this news about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. I remember cheering for Bennifer back then, hoping they would make it work. But life, as we know, isn’t always a fairy tale.


Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have chosen to end their marriage after nearly two decades of a rollercoaster relationship, marked by multiple breakups, two proposals, two weddings, and countless tabloid headlines. According to TMZ, on August 20, the actress known for her role in Atlas filed for divorce from the actor famous for Argo.

A confidant of Lopez, who initiated the divorce proceedings personally in court, shared with PEOPLE: “She had grown tired of waiting, and the timing suggests much. This action places her in charge of the proceedings. It was wise of her to make this decision.”

Sharing the role of parent with her former spouse Marc Anthony, the singer is the mom to twins Max and Emme, who are now 16 years old. Affleck and his ex-partner Jennifer Garner have three children: Violet (18), Seraphina (15), and Samuel (12).

Based on information from another Lopez report, it’s stated that the actress has made the decision to move forward. This source also mentions that she put in a great deal of effort to keep things going, and is deeply saddened by the situation. It’s important to note that her children remain her top concern, as they have been all along.

From my perspective as a lifestyle advisor, I must share that, despite Jennifer appearing deeply saddened and dissatisfied, Benjamin hasn’t offered clear indications of his intent to carry on with their marital journey. His actions seem to lack the commitment and passion needed to nurture their union, giving no obvious signs of his efforts to make it work.

According to the source, Lopez began focusing on herself when the relationship between Bennifer hit a rough patch. On April 26, 2024, Lopez officially announced their separation in her divorce papers.

In just a few short months following their April 2022 engagement, the couple, now aged 52 (Lopez and Affleck), secretly tied the knot in July 2022 at the intimate A Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas.

In August 2022, they tied the knot once more; this time, it was at Affleck’s 87-acre property located outside Savannah, Georgia. This wedding followed their initial ceremony in Vegas by a month. Among the star-studded guests were Affleck’s friends Matt Damon and Kevin Smith.

For the uninitiated, the separation between Bennifer signifies the sad end to a second opportunity for romance that began anew following their split in 2004. Originally set to wed in the early 2000s, they had been engaged before going their separate ways.
