Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's highly anticipated reunion seemed like a fairytale come true, but sources have revealed that their honeymoon in Lake Como, Italy was not as picture-perfect as it appeared. According to insiders familiar with the situation, the couple's blissfully romantic getaway was overshadowed by relationship issues and unpleasant encounters with the paparazzi.

Public outings filled with public displays of affection and shopping sprees became routine for the superstar couple during their honeymoon. However, it seems that Affleck was not prepared for the relentless attention from the paparazzi. "He was unhappy with paparazzi following them. She is an international superstar, and he acted like it came as a surprise that they would be followed around," one source revealed.

When the cameras were not rolling, the atmosphere between Affleck and Lopez reportedly turned tense. Instead of cherishing what should have been the happiest time of their lives, the couple barely spoke to each other. It was a sharp contrast to Affleck's promises of being a changed man and their initial puppy love phase.

Insiders also indicated that the timing of their rekindled romance played a significant role in their relationship dynamics. Affleck, who had been struggling with his sobriety, was in a vulnerable state when they started seeing each other again. "He was just getting sober... He was in a frenzied, excitable state," an insider said. However, once the initial excitement settled and Affleck adjusted to his sober life, he started desiring more privacy, finding it difficult to cope with Lopez's level of fame.

Sources close to the couple described Affleck as being "very protective" of Lopez, which is why he held off on filing for divorce despite their relationship deteriorating. However, the decision to go public with their separation has reportedly left Lopez furious and humiliated. "She's furious. He has humiliated her. She made a big deal that he was the love of her life," a source said.

Lopez officially filed for divorce on August 20, coinciding with the second anniversary of their wedding in Georgia. Representatives for the former power couple have so far declined to comment on the situation.

It seems that the whirlwind reunion between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez has hit a rough patch, highlighting the challenges they faced as they tried to reconcile their conflicting priorities and lifestyles. Only time will tell how their story unfolds from here.
