Incredible: Jennifer Lopez, seen for the first time after her divorce alone in the mansion she is selling with Ben Affleck: It’s really hit her hard…
Jennifer Lopez was recently seen at her Beverly Hills mansion, dressed in white, as she prepares to sell the $68 million property she once shared with Ben Affleck.
The estate, which they purchased together in May 2023 for $60 million, has become a significant reminder of their relationship, which has now ended.
Sources have told PEOPLE that the divorce has been emotionally tough for Lopez, who is reportedly disappointed in how things have turned out.
She was photographed looking contemplative on one of the mansion’s terraces, reflecting the difficult period she is going through.
“It’s really hit her hard,” the insider said. “She’s very upset and disappointed with Ben.”
Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, listing their separation date as April 26, the two-year anniversary of their wedding in Georgia. The couple has spent much of the summer apart, amid growing speculation about their relationship. Insiders note that Lopez no longer feels at ease in the sprawling mansion, which was meant for their blended family.
Their blended family includes Affleck’s children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner-Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12-and Lopez’s twins with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, Max and Emme, 16.
In a move that surprised many, Lopez filed her divorce papers in Los Angeles County Superior Court without an attorney, indicating her desire to move on quickly.
Legal experts suggest that this decision may reflect her intent to resolve the matter as efficiently as possible. According to another source, while Lopez is managing as well as she can, she initially hoped to avoid a divorce and wanted to find a solution.
