Reports have surfaced stating that Jennifer Lopez was not a fan of the multi-million dollar Beverly Hills mansion that she and her estranged husband, Ben Affleck, shared. According to an insider, the $68 million estate was primarily Affleck’s idea, and Lopez viewed it as a major compromise on her part. While the mansion boasted 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a gym, a pickleball court, office space, and two private entrances, Lopez was reportedly not enamored by its modern design. The source revealed that Lopez preferred a more romantic, Spanish, European vibe in a home.
Ben Affleck’s Inconvenient Purchase
On the other hand, another insider mentioned that the mansion was not an ideal purchase for Ben Affleck either. The distance of the mansion from Brentwood, Calif., where Affleck’s children with Jennifer Garner reside, posed a challenge for the actor. Affleck eventually moved out of the marital home and rented an estate in the Brentwood neighborhood to be closer to his kids. Following his split from Lopez, Affleck acquired a lavish Pacific Palisades mansion for $20.5 million in July while Lopez grappled with finding her next residence.
The separation between Lopez and Affleck, which was officially confirmed in August, had been brewing for some time. Legal documents indicated that the couple listed their split date as April 26. With rumors circulating about the listing of their Beverly Hills mansion in June, the property went on the market the following month. The divorce proceedings between the two stars are predicted to be contentious as they reportedly did not sign a prenuptial agreement before exchanging vows in July 2022.
As she navigates life without Affleck, sources have indicated that Jennifer Lopez is looking to revamp her image. Despite efforts to salvage their marriage, Lopez’s attempts were met with little interest from Affleck. The singer has not publicly addressed the breakup, but she did share a cryptic message on social media recently. Both Lopez and Affleck have not been seen together and narrowly avoided an awkward encounter at their shared Los Angeles office.
This article delves into the dynamics of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s shared mansion, shedding light on their respective perspectives and future plans post-breakup.
