A few days ago, news came out that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had decided to end their relationship. While there was a lot of speculation at first about why they were divorcing, it seems there was just one main reason behind their breakup.

According to a recent report from People magazine, the Bronx diva and the actor couldn’t make their marriage work because of the distance. JLo was constantly traveling for work, which soon created an emotional gap between them that they just couldn’t overcome.

Just a week ago, Jennifer filed for divorce, confirming the rumors that had been circulating for months. Many fans and media had noticed their relationship was going through a rough patch, especially since the singer had been seen at several public events without Ben.

Since getting back together in 2021, Jennifer has been in a whirlwind of nonstop work. In just two years, she was involved in eight films (as both an actress and producer), launched her Delola beverage brand, promoted her JLo Beauty line, attended fashion shows in Paris, appeared at the Met Gala, traveled to Dubai, and landed deals with brands like Coach and Revolve. On top of all this, she was also making new music.

Although they gave their relationship a second chance, 20 years after calling off their original engagement, Jennifer’s busy lifestyle seems to have taken a toll. Sources close to the couple say that she tried to keep the marriage going, but her demanding schedule and constant travel eventually wore Affleck down.

A Love That Couldn’t Survive

The first few months were like a dream. After a romantic trip to Las Vegas and a fairytale wedding in Georgia, everyone thought Bennifer was meant to last. But the marriage quickly became too public, and the pressures of their careers eventually drove them apart.

As Jennifer continues with her professional life, it’s said she feels a deep sadness about the end of this chapter. A close source shared that she tried everything to make the relationship work, but the distance and her many commitments ultimately took away the magic. Additionally, JLo is very media-friendly, while Ben Affleck prefers to keep his distance and stay out of the spotlight.
