Jennifer Lopez is reportedly feeling a sense of relief as the public begins to see what she believes is the real attitude of her husband, Ben Affleck, amidst swirling rumors of their impending divorce. According to sources, Lopez has faced significant backlash amid speculations that her marriage to Affleck is on the rocks, with many blaming her for their rumored troubles.
Lopez, 54, and Affleck, 51, have been the subject of intense scrutiny since reports of marital strife emerged. An insider told In Touch that the "Gone Girl" star was "not to blame," a sentiment that Lopez and her circle reportedly feel is unfair. "Everyone in J.Lo's circle feels it's pretty unfair that she's the one getting all the blame in this," the unnamed source told In Touch. "You just have to look at the way Ben's been behaving to see the sort of anger issues he's got. No doubt J.Lo is quite pleased people are starting to get a glimpse of who Ben really is."
Last month, Affleck was caught on camera snapping at paparazzi while driving from his and Lopez's marital home. He abruptly stopped his car, got out, and scolded the photographers who had been flashing their cameras at him. This incident was cited by the source as evidence of Affleck's "miserable side" that Lopez has had to endure. "As charming as Ben can be, he also has a pretty miserable side, which is something Jennifer endured a lot of the time when the cameras were off," the source continued. "She never wanted the marriage to end, but the more she reflects, the more she realizes she was the one doing all the work, constantly trying to lift his moods and make everything perfect for him. Truth be told, she's so much better off without him."
Adding fuel to the divorce rumors, Lopez recently shared a throwback music video of her breakup song "Cambia el Paso," which includes lyrics seemingly hinting at moving on from a relationship. "Her life is better now without him ... she doesn't need anyone to be well / She does not fail, she does not fail," the lyrics read when translated from Spanish to English.
Another tipster claimed to the Daily Mail that Lopez's family, including her mother Guadalupe Rodriguez and her sisters Leslie Ann and Lynda, are urging her to divorce Affleck. According to the source, Lopez's mother has advised her to "cut your losses and move on to avoid getting any deeper in this mess." Meanwhile, her siblings are reportedly encouraging her to "file for divorce first and get on with her life."
Despite the growing rumors, Lopez and Affleck have been seen together on several occasions, including family outings and public events, but their body language and interactions have been closely analyzed by the media and fans alike. The couple, who rekindled their romance after nearly two decades apart, has been under constant public scrutiny since their reunion.
In light of these events, it appears that Lopez is feeling vindicated as the public begins to see what she has allegedly been dealing with behind closed doors. While neither Lopez nor Affleck has publicly commented on the divorce rumors, the unfolding drama continues to captivate their fans and the media.
As the story develops, it remains to be seen how the couple will navigate their public and private lives amidst the intense speculation. For now, Lopez seems to be taking solace in the fact that the narrative is shifting and that she is no longer bearing the brunt of the blame alone.
