New photos show Ben Affleck returning to old habits amid divorce from Jennifer Lopez

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ben Affleck’s post-divorce life appears to be marked by a return to old habits, with recent photos showing him enjoying fast food as he embraces single life, as per Page Six.

The 'Good Will Hunting' star, who has been making headlines following Jennifer Lopez’s divorce filing, was recently seen stepping out of his upscale Brentwood rental to pick up some Chick-fil-A, drawing attention as he navigates his newly single status.

Ben Affleck seems relaxed while collecting Chick-fil-A order from delivery person

On Friday, August 30, Ben Affleck was spotted outside the entry gate of his $100,000-per-month Brentwood rental, dressed casually in khakis and a maroon crew neck sweater.

The actor, 52, seemed relaxed as he collected his Chick-fil-A order from a delivery person, briefly checking his bag to ensure everything was in order before retreating back inside his luxurious estate.

This sighting is not the first time Affleck has been seen indulging in fast food since the split. Just a week earlier, he was photographed happily receiving a meal from Jack In the Box, suggesting that these fast-food runs might be part of his new weekend ritual.

The actor’s choice to revert to old habits may be a way of coping with the significant changes in his personal life, following a highly publicized divorce that has generated considerable buzz among fans and media outlets.

In addition to indulging in fast food, Affleck appears to have returned to his smoking habits, as he was recently photographed smoking a cigarette just a day after the divorce filing, Page Six reported.

Affleck has been living in this upscale rental since June, after moving his belongings there while Lopez was vacationing in Europe with friends.

The timing of his move suggests that the couple’s separation had been planned for some time before it was publicly announced.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s divorce among the most talked-about separations

The divorce between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez has been one of the most talked-about separations in recent months.

Lopez, 55, filed for divorce on August 20, citing irreconcilable differences, following months of speculation about the troubles in their marriage.

Despite maintaining a public facade of a happy marriage, insiders have disclosed that the couple had been struggling for a while, with Affleck's disinterest in the spotlight putting significant strain on their relationship.

Amid their split, Affleck and Lopez have been attempting to sell their marital home, a massive 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom mansion in Los Angeles, which is currently listed at $68 million.

The couple originally purchased the property for $60 million last year, shortly after their surprise wedding in Las Vegas in July 2022.

Despite the ongoing sale of their marital home, Affleck recently acquired a $20.5 million mansion in the prestigious Pacific Palisades neighborhood, though he has not yet moved in.

The separation has been especially challenging for Lopez, who had publicly declared Affleck as the love of her life after a series of high-profile relationships and multiple marriages.

A source close to Lopez revealed to Page Six that she is "furious" and "embarrassed" by the situation, especially given how openly she had expressed her feelings for Affleck.

However, another source told People that despite her anger, Lopez is also feeling "relieved" to move on with her life, even though she had initially hoped to work things out.
