Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Announce Divorce After Two Years of Marriage

Jennifer Lopez has officially filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, marking the end of their two-year marriage. The filing occurred on their second wedding anniversary, with Lopez citing "irreconcilable differences." Notably, she submitted the petition without legal representation and without a prenuptial agreement. In her request, she has also asked that Affleck, who shares a similar estimated net worth of $150 million, not receive spousal support. The couple's relationship reportedly faced challenges stemming from their differing lifestyles. While Lopez is known for her public persona and desire to socialize, Affleck has been described as more introverted, preferring to spend time at home. Sources indicate that these contrasting preferences contributed to their decision to part ways, with Lopez feeling "disappointed and sad" but recognizing it was time to move on. Lopez, who recently launched her Delola cocktail line and was set to embark on a world tour, had previously canceled her tour plans to focus on family. Meanwhile, Affleck has continued to work on film projects, including "Air" and "Hypnotic." Insiders suggest that Lopez's efforts to encourage Affleck to prioritize his children may have also played a role in their marital strain. The divorce filing comes two years after their lavish wedding in Georgia, a date that holds significance for Lopez. Despite her heartbreak, sources affirm that she has made the decision to move forward, acknowledging the challenges they faced as a couple.
