The IT couple of the early ‘2000s, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who went their separate ways in 2004, reunited and rekindled their romance after seventeen years in 2021, and finally made it to the altar in 2022. The couple decided to elope to Las Vegas at midnight and had a low-key ceremony in a chapel before opting for a lavish wedding in Georgia.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s kids reportedly got along well, and the singer was in awe of what a great father Affleck is. Their love story was captured in Lopez’s documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told, in which she opened up about their initial breakup and how they have managed to overcome things. But their happiness was short-lived, as rumors of their divorce started to spread like wildfire, and now Ben Affleck’s plans post-divorce have been revealed.
Ben Affleck is planning a ‘freedom party’ post-divorce from Jennifer Lopez
According to reports from Heat World, the Gone Girl actor Ben Affleck, who rekindled his romance with Jennifer Lopez in 2021 and got married in 2022, is now planning to throw a ‘freedom party’ post his divorce from Lopez.
The reports have suggested that the actor is thinking about throwing a party for his friends to mark the end of their relationship, and surprisingly, in Georgia, where the two of them got married. The publication mentioned,
Ben just wants to get away from all of it and enjoy himself again, and he wants to take his close friends with him. He’s talking about arranging a big blowout at his place in Georgia, which is pretty ironic since that’s where he and J-Lo had their wedding.
The reports, however, mentioned that it does not matter where the actor decides to throw a party because it’s just going to hurt J-Lo. After all, this act will probably be seen as Affleck celebrating escaping their relationship. Neither of them has commented on their rocky situation, but there have been multiple reports of them living separately and ‘trying’ to work on their relationship. The two of them are also quietly trying to sell their mansion.
The upcoming (not yet confirmed) getaway plans of Affleck will surely leave J-Lo furious and hurt, but the sources have shared that this is going to give the actor a chance to spend time with his friends. He just wants to celebrate and appreciate the support he’s gotten from his friends over the years, especially in his tough times. The sources add,
He regrets that [being consumed by his crumbling relationship] and wants to make it up to his friend, and he wants to cut loose and have some fun. He’s been really struggling, and he needs to have some fun and just relax.
Ben Affleck, who does not like the media attention, quite opposite to J-Lo, reportedly has been focusing on his work and now wants to relax. He hasn’t been himself in the past few months, and this getaway with his friends can help him unwind and relax.
Ben Affleck gives Jennifer Lopez’s Bridgeton-themed birthday party a miss
Jennifer Lopez turned 55 in the most royal way, as she celebrated her birthday in Bridgehampton, New York, at a Bridgeton-themed party. However, her husband, Ben Affleck was nowhere to be found amid the rumors of them going their separate ways. The singer-actress took to her social media to share a beautiful message that read,
I’ve been seeing all of your birthday wishes, beautiful videos, and posts all night and this morning from all over the world. I have laughed, smiled, and shed some tears. I really do have the best, most amazing fans in the world. I could never express how moved I am or how incredibly blessed I feel to have all of you be a part of my life.
The singer mentioned that it’s hard to believe that she has spent so much time with her fans, adding that she is contemplating the most extraordinary journey she has had and still feels like the same girl starting out. Jennifer Lopez mentioned in her caption that she is ready to take on the world outside but at the same time admitted that she is tender, fragile, and sometimes frightened.
J-Lo had shared pictures from her lavish Bridgeton-themed party and was seen wearing a blue ball gown with her hair-up accessories and a crown. At the same time, Affleck, according to the NY Post, was spotted in Los Angeles running errands without his wedding ring. They have spent most of their summer, including the 4th of July and their second wedding anniversary, separately.
MARCA reports that J-Lo is trying to see her 55th birthday as a fresh start and doing everything possible to stay optimistic. The Gone Girl actor is focused on his work and is spending his time preparing for his upcoming movie The Accountant 2. The duo have not addressed their separation news yet.
