Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are sparking divorce rumors in 2024 after two years of marriage. The couple fell in love in the early 2000s, capturing the hearts of America with their romance. Unfortunately, they couldn’t make their relationship work and called off their engagement in 2004. Now, Lopez fans wonder if she’s experiencing money woes amid the marriage speculation. Here’s why.

Jennifer Lopez flew economy in Europe, sparking speculation that she’s out of money

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are spending substantial time apart in mid-2024. The couple doesn’t appear to be living together, with Lopez living in their $60 million mansion and Affleck living in a $100,000 monthly rental nearby. In June 2024, Lopez flew to Italy for a vacation before heading to Paris for Fashion Week. Affleck didn’t join Lopez for either European venture, as he was seen in LA with his kids during this time.

So, is Lopez hurting for money as she navigates a difficult marriage with Affleck? Lopez flew economy from Naples, Italy, to Paris, France, on Saturday, June 22, 2024. Prices for the seat on AirFrance start around $136 one way. Lopez purchased the middle seat next to her window seat for her handbag, and her bodyguard sat on the aisle seat. She kept a low profile while on the plane, opting for a white sweatshirt and joggers.

Could Lopez’s choice to fly economy reflect her current financial status? It’s unclear, but with a net worth of $400 million, she could’ve chosen a more expensive option. However, if she and Affleck plan to go through a costly divorce following the cancellation of her tour, she might want to save money when possible.

She canceled her tour in 2024 to spend more time with family amid divorce speculation

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Are Working to Avoid a ‘Messy Court Battle’ in Divorce, Source Claims

Jennifer Lopez canceled her “This Is Me … LIVE” tour in 2024. Some reports claimed that the concert failed to sell tickets, which affected Lopez’s decision. However, Live Nation announced that Lopez canceled her tour to spend more time with her family and friends. This also happened amid divorce speculation with Ben Affleck.

“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” she wrote to fans. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”

“I promise I will make it up to you, and we will all be together again,” Lopez added. “I love you all so much. Until next time.”

A source told People that Lopez felt “devastated” about canceling the tour, but she’s also “relieved” that she doesn’t have to go through with it at this time.

“Life is a lot right now,” the source told the publication. “As sad as she was to cancel the tour, she’s also relieved. She needs to take care of herself.”

Do Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have a prenup?

If Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck go through with a divorce, it could cost them a pretty penny. So, does the couple have a prenup?

It seems the couple doesn’t have a prenuptial agreement. They allegedly tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2022 without protecting their assets. However, a prenup was on the table when they got engaged for the first time in the early 2000s. The original prenup allegedly gave both the stars asset protection, and it included an infidelity clause. If Affleck cheated on Lopez, the prenup was allegedly nullified.

Divorce attorney Jacqueline Newman with the matrimonial law firm Berkman Bottger Newman & Schein LLP said Lopez and Affleck might’ve already signed divorce papers. “It feels like they are trying to let the public down easy by dropping hints about the marriage ending but not yet officially announcing it,” Newman told Showbiz Cheat Sheet in a statement. “If it is, in fact, over, I would bet that the terms are already worked out and the papers are already signed.”
