In her latest Instagram post, JLo described how the past couple of months have been for her. “Oh, it was a summer,” she declared in the caption.
Among the photos Jennifer Lopez shared was a quote that reads, “Everything is unfolding in divine order,” seemingly addressing her split from Ben Affleck. Another photo had a shirt with the quote, “She’s in bloom and unbothered. Out of reach and at peace.”
Lopez formerly filed for divorce on Aug. 20 after months of speculation that she and Affleck were heading toward a split. She cited Apr. 26 as their initial date of separation. The filing date marked the second anniversary of the former couple’s wedding ceremony in 2022. They officially got married in Las Vegas in 2022.
Fans started to question the pair’s marriage in early May when Jennifer Lopez started attending events like the Met Gala without Ben Affleck by her side. In mid-May, it was reported that Affleck had moved out of his and Lopez’s multi-million dollar mansion. From there, the duo’s struggles became highly noticeable.
Lopez nor Affleck have released a statement about the break-up. They also did not have a prenup.
Jennifer Lopez is ‘Upset and Disappointed’ by Ben Affleck
Meanwhile, a source close to Jennifer Lopez stated that she is both “upset and disappointed” by her estranged husband, Ben Affleck amid the divorce proceedings.
According to the insider, the split is hitting Lopez hard, as she did not want to divorce Affleck. “She’s very upset and disappointed with Ben,” the insider explained.
To make matters more uncomfortable, Jennifer Lopez is still living in the house she and Ben Affleck shared. “She and Ben bought the house for the whole family,” the source continued. “It’s way too big for her and filled with too many memories as well.”
Another source further pointed out that Lopez is “doing as well as she can” and actually seems “relieved” after she filed for the divorce.
“It’s been incredibly difficult for her that Ben chose to pull away from their marriage and move on with his life, leaving her behind,” they shared. “She wanted to figure things out. They love each other. Jennifer is not the type to just give up. It’s been almost torture for her to wait around.”
