Jason Mewes, a long-time friend of Ben Affleck, expressed confidence in the marriage of Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, stating that he would be shocked if they were to call it quits. Mewes attended their wedding in South Carolina in August 2022 and described their interactions as sincere and genuine after 20 years together. Despite not keeping in touch with Affleck after the wedding, Mewes raised doubts about reports that Affleck had moved out of the couple’s shared Beverly Hills home due to marital tension. He suggested that their busy work schedules and parenting responsibilities could be contributing factors but emphasized that he was not certain about the situation.
Sources close to Affleck and Lopez revealed that the couple was facing issues in their relationship that had arisen several months prior when Lopez began increasing work commitments and preparing for her tour. Affleck was reported to have moved out of their home several weeks ago, though the couple continues to wear their wedding rings. Despite the rumors, insiders stated that Affleck and Lopez have no immediate plans to separate. Affleck was spotted wearing his wedding band in Santa Monica while Lopez was attending the premiere of her new film in Mexico City.
Affleck and Lopez, also known as Bennifer, first began dating in the early 2000s when they worked together on the film Gigli. Although they got engaged in 2002, they ended their engagement the following year. In 2021, the couple rekindled their relationship much to the delight of their fans and eventually tied the knot in 2022. Jennifer Garner, Affleck’s ex-wife, is reportedly supportive of their marriage and is encouraging him to work on his relationship with Lopez. Garner wants nothing more than for Affleck to be happy and reportedly fully supports his current relationship.
Despite the rumors circulating about their relationship, Affleck and Lopez have not directly addressed the speculation about their marriage. Both continue to be seen wearing their wedding rings, indicating that they are committed to their relationship. While there have been reports of tension within their marriage, sources close to the couple suggest that they are not considering a separation at this time.
