Pop star Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck in Los Angeles, marking the end of their two-year marriage. The surprising announcement came on August 20, 2024, which coincided with the second anniversary of their lavish wedding ceremony in Georgia. Court documents obtained by Page Six reveal that Lopez filed for divorce pro per, without the assistance of an attorney. The couple reportedly did not have a prenuptial agreement, raising questions about the division of their combined wealth.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Ben Affleck's estimated net worth is $150 million. During their marriage, the actor appeared in successful films such as "The Flash," "Air," "The Instigators," "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom," and "Hypnotic." Affleck recently completed filming for "The Accountant 2," set to be released in April 2025. Additionally, he and Lopez collaborated on the upcoming film "Unstoppable," with Affleck serving as a producer.

Jennifer Lopez, on the other hand, reportedly has a net worth exceeding $400 million. Since her marriage to Affleck in July 2022, the pop star has starred in her own movies including "Atlas," "Mother," and "Shotgun Wedding." She also embarked on a self-funded project called "This Is Me... Now: A Love Story," which documented her rekindled romance with Affleck. Alongside the project, Lopez released her ninth studio album of the same name, which peaked at No. 38 on the Billboard 200.

In addition to her successful music and film career, Lopez ventured into the beverage industry with the launch of her cocktail line, Delola, in April 2023. With her wealth and business ventures, Lopez has been spotted exploring potential new million-dollar properties following the divorce filing.

Reports indicate that tension over finances may contribute to the divorce proceedings. The Blast reported that Lopez is seeking at least half of Affleck's $150 million fortune, claiming that she covered many expenses during their marriage while Affleck expressed reluctance to spend money. Anonymous sources also revealed that Lopez felt Affleck relied on her wealth during their time together, alleging she paid for private jet bills, hotels, meals, clothes, and other expenses.

In the divorce filing, Lopez waived spousal support and requested that the court deny Affleck any financial support as well. The next steps in the divorce proceedings remain to be seen as both parties navigate the division of their assets.

As the news of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's divorce continues to unfold, fans and industry observers await further details regarding the financial implications of the separation.
