According to previous reports, Affleck and Lopez spent the entire summer apart, not even reuniting for their second wedding anniversary or her birthday. They have also put their marital home on the market, and reports have indicated that both have been seen without their wedding rings on multiple occasions. 

However, an insider claims that Affleck and Lopez are secretly giving their relationship another shot and working to save it, as per Perez Hilton.

They are doing this through handwritten letters, just as they did at the beginning of their romance.

The insider detailed, “Jen and Ben agreed it is best to take some time apart so they can really figure out what it is that they want. They were ready to throw in the towel. Divorce papers are done and ready to be filed. But they wanted to give it one last go before walking away from this and are going back to the beginning by writing each other letters. This is what made them fall in love in the first place.”

In 2021, sources revealed that Affleck won Lopez’s heart by writing her letters. While she was filming 'Shotgun Wedding in the Dominican Republic', Affleck sent her love letters filled with longing, including one email mentioning how he could "own her heart" with his pen. 

Letters played a crucial role in their relationship the first time around as well. In her documentary "The Greatest Love Story Never Told", Lopez disclosed that they exchanged love letters and emails early on. Affleck kept these letters throughout his 13-year marriage to Jennifer Garner. When he and Lopez reunited in 2021, he compiled their notes and emails into a book as a holiday gift.

In the documentary, Lopez shared, "This book is a book Ben gave me on our first Christmas back together. It is every letter and every mail that we wrote each other from 20 years ago and today."

While Lopez was open to sharing these messages with the world, their latest correspondence will remain private. If they reconcile, their romance will stay out of the public eye. 

According to a source, "This time JLo will definitely not be showing anyone these letters and they are just to stay between her and Ben. If they decide that they want to stay together, she will be keeping her love life to herself. Right now, it is looking promising."

Despite their efforts, the couple still faces challenges. While they are committed to saving their marriage, another source mentioned that their relationship remains "strained," but emphasized that there is "a deep love for each other." 

The source added, "They just have to find what got them back together in the first place and there is definitely a chance that three will be a charm when and if that happens. They aren’t throwing in the towel. They are taking it day by day and they don’t want to get divorced"

Some of the users have support the couple whereas the others have slammed them for working on useless trying as they both have too many issues. 

One user wrote, “It will not work. too many issues on both sides.”

The second said, “Writing love letters is not the same as living with each other, day in and day out. This won't last.” 

The third added, “They may as well hire a video crew to make a documentary about the "rekindling process."Reconstructing Benifer sounds like a good working title.”

The other user asserted, “They’re not. There is 0 indication they’re working it out. Only the terms of the divorce. Unfortunate for both.”

The fifth user claimed, “Nah ! Ben, it's time to face a reality check mate and walk away. We all make mistakes, walk away before it gets worse mate.”

Some have shared their wishes, “Good luck with that! I would have thought Ben learned his lesson with letters. Might as well put his letters on the internet”

“Awesome! Divorce is easy. Working thru the problems is the hard part. Good on them giving it the work. I hope the outcome finds them together again. They have two decades of history together. It’s worth the work.”
