LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Rumors are swirling that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's marriage might be on the rocks, with reports suggesting that divorce papers are ready to be filed.

"No one, except [Lopez’s] mother, likes Ben Affleck. He’s a triple-A a**hole," a source told Page Six.

"She’s furious. He has humiliated her. He was the one who initiated getting back together. This was definitely not on her bingo card. She would’ve scratched someone’s eyes out if they told her they’re splitting up less than two years in," the source added.

Reports also suggest that Affleck is delaying filing for divorce to spare Lopez further humiliation, although sources believe it may already be too late to save the marriage.

The couple is reportedly planning to announce their split by the end of the summer, which is just weeks away.

A source previously told Page Six that there is no chance of reconciliation, stating, "They’ve turned the page on all the unfinished business of 20 plus years ago," according to an insider.

"They’ve seen things through to the end—and they know for sure now that they are not built for the long haul. No further unanswered questions. They’ve seen all they need to see, and it’s over. In the end, it’s gonna be the most elaborate and expensive exercise in closure ever," the insider added.

Close associates of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have described their recent split as potentially the most expensive "exercise in closure" ever, marking the end of a relationship that has spanned two decades.

The famous couple, who first became romantically involved in 2004 and were once engaged, rekindled their romance in 2022, only to face the end of their marriage after just two years.

According to sources, Lopez and Affleck are now embarking on a multi-million dollar journey to close the chapter on their relationship, which was driven by unresolved feelings from their past.

A friend close to the couple told Page Six, "They got caught up in the moment. Jennifer had wanted this wedding — the gowns, the friends, all the trappings and trimmings — for decades."

Their rekindled romance culminated in a lavish ceremony at Affleck's $8 million Georgia estate, where Lopez stunned in three Ralph Lauren gowns.

A friend noted that both stars were nostalgic, attempting to fulfill a dream from twenty years ago. However, after addressing their past issues, they've realized that their relationship isn't meant to last.

"They’ve turned the page on all the unfinished business of 20-plus years ago. They’ve seen things through to the end — and they know for sure now that they are not built for the long haul," the friend added. "No further unanswered questions. They’ve seen all they need to see, and it’s over. In the end, it’s gonna be the most elaborate and expensive exercise in closure ever."
