Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s Romance Comes to a Close: Divorce Filed After 2 Years
Jennifer Lynn Affleck, also known by her nickname J.Lo, is an American actress, singer, dancer and businesswoman and Benjamin Géza Affleck is an American actor and filmmaker.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, A Second Goodbye as They File for Divorce.
On Tuesday, August 20, Jennifer, who is 55 years old, decided to divorce her 52-year-old husband Ben, just 2 years after their marriage in July 2022.
However, there are notable twists, including the timing of her decision.
Jennifer Lopez filed legal documents on Tuesday in the L.A. County Superior Court without the assistance of a lawyer, choosing to represent herself.
She has stated that the separation date is April 26, 2024. The couple married in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022, but today, August 20, holds special significance in their history.
This date marks the second anniversary of their more formal wedding ceremony in Georgia. Thus, it seems unlikely that the choice to file on this date is a mere coincidence.
The most surprising detail is that J Lo did not mention a prenuptial agreement in her documents, and sources familiar with the situation have confirmed that no such agreement exists.
What’s particularly surprising is that this is Jennifer Lopez’s fourth marriage and Ben Affleck’s second, making it seem almost expected that they would have a prenuptial agreement in place. Despite this, it appears they anticipated this marriage to last forever, though it hasn’t turned out that way.
The documents reveal that Jennifer has waived her right to spousal support and is requesting that Ben be denied any such support as well. Since they have no children together, there are no custody issues to address. Rumors have been going around that she was pregnant in various media houses however the rumors are fake and she is not pregnant.
The final twist is that, contrary to what one might expect, all financial matters don’t appear to have been resolved before Jennifer filed for divorce.
They have put their Beverly Hills home on the market, Ben has purchased his own house in Brentwood, and Jennifer is currently searching for a new home as well.
Although they have been attempting to reach a settlement for months, these negotiations have reportedly become increasingly contentious, to the extent that they are sometimes not even communicating. So, why did Jennifer decide to file for divorce while they are still negotiating financial details? While legally it doesn’t matter who files first in a no-fault state, public relations considerations might have influenced her decision.
