Ben Affleck Accused Of Undergoing A 'Mid-Life Crisis' Amid Jennifer Lopez Divorce Reports
Beneath the outlet's August 3rd post, one fan wrote: "Say you’re going through a midlife crisis without saying you are going through a midlife crisis." Another commented: "Someone's midlifing," as one other replied: "Mid life crisis perhaps?"
Others compared his new 'do to Robert De Niro's iconic look in the 1976 classic, Taxi Driver. Clad in a sleek, dark ensemble, Affleck sported a black jacket layered over a Red Hot Chili Peppers T-shirt in matching black, complemented by gray jeans.
The Gone Girl actor added a touch of flair with black and silver aviator sunglasses. During his daytime excursion, he was also spotted cruising on a blue electric motorcycle.
This comes after Page Six reported that Lopez is "furious" and "humiliated" by her rumored split from Affleck. One source recently sat down with the outlet and dished: "She’s furious. He has humiliated her. He was the one who initiated getting back together."
Lopez and Affleck reignited their romance in July 2021, shortly after Lopez ended her engagement to Alex Rodriguez in April of the same year. "Bennifer" had initially been an item from 2002 to 2004, a period marked by their memorable collaboration in the film, Gigli.
The insider went on: "He’s humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of a record, they’re not young kids." The couple quietly tied the knot in Las Vegas in July 2022, and followed it up with a grand wedding celebration at Affleck’s residence in Riceboro, Georgia, the following month.
Lopez's latest album, This Is Me…Now, along with the Amazon Prime documentary "The Greatest Love Story Never Told," featuring Affleck, draws inspiration from their relationship. The source added, regarding the Shotgun Wedding actress: "She is romantic."
The Oscar winner recently acquired a $20.5 million home in Pacific Palisades, California, following the listing of his marital residence with the Maid in Manhattan alum for a staggering $68 million. According to another source, Affleck is delaying filing for divorce to spare Lopez from additional embarrassment. "He’s very protective of her," they said.
TMZ reports that Affleck and Lopez have ceased communication, a development that is purportedly delaying their divorce proceedings.
Sources reveal that the "If You Had My Love" songstress and the Justice League star have yet to engage divorce attorneys, opting instead to rely on their business managers to negotiate the specifics.
