Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are allegedly trying to save their marriage by writing each other love letters
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have a romantic love story that spans decades. While fans rooted for their second lease on love that began in 2021, the couple is now reportedly headed for divorce. According to sources close to the couple, Lopez and Affleck lead separate lives. While Lopez loves being in the spotlight, Affleck prefers a quiet life away from fame.
While some sources claim the writing’s on the wall, an insider told DailyMail.com that Lopez and Affleck aren’t entirely giving up yet. The couple now writes love letters to each other.
“They were ready to throw in the towel,” the source claimed. “Divorce papers are done and ready to be filed. But they wanted to give it one last go before walking away from this and are going back to the beginning by writing each other letters. This is what made them fall in love in the first place.”
Lopez and Affleck have written to each other in the past, and Affleck gifted Lopez a book of the letters and emails they exchanged over 20 years. “This time, J.Lo will definitely not be showing anyone these letters, and they are just to stay between her and Ben,” the insider continued. “If they decide that they want to stay together, she will be keeping her love life to herself. Right now, it is looking promising.”
Jennifer Lopez embarrassed Ben Affleck by sharing his private letters in the past
Ben Affleck’s love letters to Jennifer Lopez are no secret. Lopez discussed Affleck’s letters in her film The Greatest Love Story Never Told. While Affleck thought his love letters to Lopez were kept between them, he learned that Lopez shared his love letters with her musicians.
“You’ve been showing all the musicians all the letters?” Affleck recalled asking Lopez in the documentary. “And they were like, ‘Yeah, we call you Pen Affleck.’” He then put his head in his hands with embarrassment. “I was like, Oh my God.”
While Lopez doesn’t mind a public romance, Affleck clarified that he wanted to keep their relationship private.
“I don’t think [Ben] is very comfortable with me doing all of this,” Lopez said in her film. “But he loves me, he knows I’m an artist, and he’s gonna support me in every way he can because he knows you can’t stop me from making the music I made … he doesn’t want to stop me. But that doesn’t mean he’s comfortable being the muse.”
The couple allegedly feels upset and wants to make their romance work
Reports claim that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are on the fast track to divorce. While this may be true, Affleck and Lopez are allegedly troubled to see their marriage end.
“Jennifer was Ben’s dream woman,” a source told OK! Magazine in June 2024. “It was drama all the time. He’s feeling down about it and is upset and depressed it didn’t work out even though he knows ending it is the right thing to do.”
A friend of Lopez’s admitted that Lopez felt willing to do anything to save her marriage, including sacrificing her career. “She wants this marriage to work so much that she is willing to make any sacrifice, including giving up being J.Lo,” the friend told DailyMail.com.
