Earlier, on May 14, the shocking news surfaced regarding the status of Bennifer's marriage.

Additionally, while the Bronx diva was observed house hunting independently, Affleck relocated from the couple's $60 million Beverly Hills residence to a rented property in Brentwood, Los Angeles.

Despite their impending second wedding anniversary in July, the source revealed the heartbreaking news that the romance between the couple is purportedly over.

Describing the 54-year-old actress, the informant disclosed, "She attended the Met Gala solo, went out for dinner on Mother's Day without him, and is now in search of a new home for herself, after spending months together hunting for their dream home."

The insider further added that if the duo ends up splitting, their combined net worth of $550 million would also be in jeopardy, saying, “And with a combined net worth of $550 million, the divorce is only going to get nastier," per RadarOnline.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's divorce rumors

The ‘Marry Me’ star and the 51-year-old actor have recently sparked divorce rumors after giving a second shot at their romance during the COVID-19 pandemic and tying the knot in July 2022. 

Previously, they were together in the early 2000s but called off their wedding in 2003 citing excessive media coverage as the core reason, before separating altogether in 2004.

After getting back together and tying the knot in 2022, they spent the better part of 2023 searching for their dream home and zeroed in on the $60 million property.

However, recently, Lopez was seen house hunting alone in Los Angeles in mid-May, while Affleck was staying alone at his rented property in Brentwood. A day later, the explosive news broke that the ‘Gone Girl’ actor had allegedly “decided to call it quits” on his marriage. 

A source close to the couple shared with In Touch, “It's over; they're headed for a divorce and for once [Ben's] not to blame.”

According to the insider, "They'll always have love for each other, but she can't control him, and he can't change her." They continued, "There was no way it could have lasted."

Most recently, Lopez attended the Met Gala solo and was noticeably unaccompanied by her husband during promotional events for 'Atlas.'

On Wednesday, May 22, the multi-faceted star even appeared to have snapped at a reporter when asked about Affleck. 

According to BuzzFeed.News, the reporter inquired about the validity of the divorce rumors with Ben Affleck to the singer-actress, asking, “Is your divorce with Ben Affleck real? These rumors?”

Her ‘Atlas’ co-star Simu Liu defended her, as he intervened saying, “OK, we're not doing that,” before adding, “C'mon, don't come in with that energy, please.” Lopez also replied back at the reporter, "You know better than that."

While Affleck hasn't been observed accompanying Lopez during the 'Atlas' promotions, the pair united to show support for one of the children of the actor from 'AIR'. However, according to reports, they refrained from "hugging or kissing."
