Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have been surrounded by split rumours in recent weeks, with one source now claiming they’re headed for divorce after one tense moment
Jennifer Lopez reached the “deal breaker” in her marriage to Ben Affleck after she was forced to attend a premiere alone while he relaxed with friends, according to a source.
The couple have been surrounded by divorce speculation in recent weeks, with Ben believed to have moved out of their family home. Amid the drama, J-Lo has been busy promoting her new Netflix movie Atlas.
The singer cut a lonely figure for the film’s premiere in Mexico, with fans saying she looked “hurt” at the glitzy event. Meanwhile, Ben was more than 1,500 miles away enjoying dinner at the Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica, California.

At the time, a source said Ben was very happy with his friends. “He was in a great mood. He seemed very relaxed and happy. Everyone chatted and seemed to enjoy,” they told People.
Now, another source has suggested Jennifer wasn’t happy when she saw the pictures of Ben on the night out. They told Deux Moi: “Ben not going to the premiere in Mexico was a big deal to Jen. He was seen that same night out to dinner in LA and I’m sure she saw the paparazzi pictures and people told her he was out.
“That was the deal breaker for her.” The comments come after J-Lo cancelled her This I Me… Live tour amid the divorce speculation, with it being reported she wants to spend time with her family. The singer said she was “heartsick and devastated” to have pulled the plug.

Writing on her website, she said: “I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. 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.” Jennifer added: “I love you all so much. Until next time.” A representative for J-Lo then said: “She’s taking time off to be with family and close friends. This was a very difficult decision made by Jennifer this week and she’s sorry to her fans.”
