Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s Relationship Rumors
Recently, rumors have surfaced suggesting that singer Jennifer Lopez and actor Ben Affleck are facing a significant marital crisis. However, a source told People magazine that the crisis is not due to Lopez’s fame.
Deep-Rooted Issues
For several months, speculation has been that the crisis stems from the fame of both artists. A source clarified to People, stating, "There are deeper issues between them."
"The idea that Ben believes Jennifer is too famous and didn’t understand the public scrutiny their marriage would attract is false. There are more profound problems," explained the insider.
Different Approaches to Fame
In early May, People reported from a close acquaintance of the couple that their conflicts are related to how each handles the spotlight.
"He is more introspective and private. She loves to share her heart with her fans and the world. This fundamental difference has made daily life challenging. They’ve always had clashes in their styles, problem-solving methods, and actions, but their love has persisted over the years," said the source.
Living Separately
Although the exact cause of the crisis remains unknown, the couple currently lives apart and has been for the past two months. Their Los Angeles mansion is up for sale.
Moreover, Lopez and Affleck spent their second wedding anniversary separately. Lopez was spotted in the Hamptons, while Affleck was seen at his office in Los Angeles, as reported by Page Six.
Affleck’s Discomfort with Public Attention
In a recent interview on Kevin Hart’s show "Hart to Heart," Affleck talked about his discomfort with excessive attention.
"I am a bit shy. I don’t like excessive attention. That’s why people might think I always look angry. It’s because someone is pointing a camera in my face," he said.
He also expressed his amazement at the level of attention Lopez receives. "When we go somewhere with Jennifer, people go out of their way to show her how much they love her and that she means something important to their lives. It’s incredible, you know?" added Affleck.
