LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ben Affleck is struggling to keep it together!
According to several reports, the ‘Gone Girl’ star is falling back on drinking amid speculations of divorce from Jennifer Lopez.
Ben Affleck is slipping into alcoholism once again, per insiders
A source told Daily Mail that Affleck, who had a past with gambling and alcoholism, is suffering "acute sadness" especially over his allegedly failing marriage.
One of the friends of the actor said, "I hear that he is drinking. He is full of demons – a really troubled person.”
A second insider shared, “I have seen him looking glassy eyed and it is a real worry to everyone who cares about him.”
Affleck and Lopez were last seen together at their 12-bedroom and 24-bathroom mansion, priced at $60 million. The two reportedly spent almost four hours at the house and are looking for a buyer.
Another insider reflected on their troubled marriage, "I understand that he has checked out of the marriage but she has yet to accept the truth of the situation and thinks that with therapy they might make it.”
"It is made all the more difficult by the fact that we are dealing here with the emotions of the five children they have between them," the source added.
"The reasons why it hasn't worked out are many but when you lose J.Lo's family, you lose J.Lo. Her mum and her sisters are against him and Benny [Medina] is also," the insider continued.
