Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are finalizing their divorce following a series of public disputes and rumors. The couple, who reunited in 2021 and married in 2022, struggled to mend their differences despite several efforts.
The final blow appears to be Affleck’s purchase of a $20.5 million “bachelor pad” in Pacific Palisades. This move came after Lopez sold her New York City penthouse for $23 million. The couple also listed their Beverly Hills mansion for $68 million, intensifying speculations about their split.
Their separation was further emphasized by Lopez celebrating her birthday and their anniversary apart. Affleck’s decision to buy the new home without Lopez’s involvement was described as a “stab in the heart” for her, marking a painful end to their relationship.
