In recent months, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's relationship has been under intense scrutiny, with rumors of marital difficulties surfacing. However, a recent report suggests that the alleged problems go beyond issues of fame and public attention.

The speculation began earlier this year when Ben was noticeably absent from several significant events involving J. Lo, such as the Met Gala and the premiere of her movie, "Atlas." This fueled rumors that they were taking time apart, a notion further exacerbated by their $68 million marital home being listed for sale.

One source close to the couple shed light on the situation, stating that Jennifer's penchant for opening her heart to her fans and the world contrasts with Ben's more introspective and private nature. The dynamics between their differing approaches to fame have allegedly made it challenging for them to navigate their day-to-day lives.

Ben himself acknowledged this rift in J. Lo's 2024 documentary, "The Greatest Love Story Never Told." Reflecting on their reconciliation after their well-publicized split in 2004, he expressed his initial reluctance towards a relationship dominated by social media attention. However, he came to realize that it was unfair to impose such limitations, likening it to marrying a boat captain and aversion to water.

While sources have insisted that fame played a significant role in their marital strife, a recent report suggests that there are deeper issues at hand. Insider claims debunked the notion that Ben finds Jennifer "too famous" or was unaware of the attention their relationship would attract. The source hinted at undisclosed complexities that have contributed to their current situation.

Jennifer and Ben have not publicly addressed the rumors. Nonetheless, a previous source mentioned that they were striving to maintain an amicable environment during this period of their lives. Their focus remains on ensuring the best possible outcome for everyone involved, including their children, shared friends, and extended families.

Jennifer shares 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Ben has three children, Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

BuzzFeed has reached out to representatives for both Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck for comment on the latest report. As of now, there has been no response. As developments unfold, we will keep you informed.
