Insider Claims Ben Affleck Is Avoiding JLo

Ben Affleck’s marriage problems with Jennifer Lopez escalate

What’s the story

Ben Affleck is reportedly distancing himself from wife Jennifer Lopez amid concerns over a possible divorce.

Despite Affleck occasionally showing up with his wedding ring, insiders suspect it’s because he’s afraid Lopez will “destroy him in a divorce war.”

“Ben never expected Jennifer to embrace his decision to leave. But he’s frustrated by how hard it is for her to let go, and he lives in fear of how far she’ll go!” an insider told RadarOnline.

Affleck and Lopez are living apart amid divorce speculation

Affleck and Lopez have reportedly been living apart since early May, with Affleck moving out of their $60 million Beverly Hills mansion to rent a home in Brentwood.

Lopez was recently spotted in New York City with her wedding ring still on, in what insiders believe could be a tactic to exert control over Affleck.

“She insisted they wear their rings, then threw a tantrum because he brought his stuff out. No wonder he’s a wreck!” the insider claimed.

Affleck’s marital problems have nothing to do with public status

Contrary to speculation, a source said People that the couple’s marital problems are not related to their public status, but stem from ‘deeper issues’.

“The idea that Ben thinks Jennifer is too famous and that he didn’t know what he was getting into with all the attention on their marriage is not true.”

“Ben can’t handle conflict right now, but she’d rather fight than be ignored. Everyone knows you can’t mess with J.Lo and get away with it!”

Garner distances himself from Affleck’s marital problems

Affleck is also said to be having problems with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

However, sources say Garner is tired of helping Affleck with his marital problems with Lopez.

The 52-year-old has been serving as Affleck’s unofficial marriage counselor, but sources now say she’s decided to step away because “Ben’s issues with J.Lo are starting to cause tension with (boyfriend John Miller)” and “that’s the last thing she wants.”
