Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, famously known as ‘Bennifer,’ reportedly rushed into marriage because they felt the world wanted it, despite their deep love for each other. A source close to the couple revealed to People Magazine that while they were once considered the “real deal,” their relationship ultimately came to an end.
The insider shared that the couple “really loved each other, and it happened quickly.” They were genuinely in love and eager to make it work, but their differences became apparent over time. Lopez is known for being very public and enjoying social outings, whereas Affleck is more of an introvert who prefers staying at home.
Despite their differences, Lopez reportedly helped Affleck reconnect with family life, a value important to both of them. However, the connection wasn’t enough to sustain their marriage. Jennifer was last seen visiting Ben briefly on his birthday, just five days before she filed for divorce on August 20.
