J.Lo and Ben Affleck finalize divorce: 'What they had before is gone'

It looks like the marriage of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is indeed a thing of the past. According to foreign media reports, the couple already has their divorce papers ready. "What they had before is gone and they have both accepted it."

There have been rumors for some time that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's marriage is over. The parties involved have consistently declined to comment on the matter. Still, for several weeks, they have not been seen together, which certainly hasn't helped quell the rumors circulating in the media. Moreover, the actor reportedly purchased a new home on her birthday, delivering a "stab to the heart" of J.Lo.

It seems their marriage cannot be saved, as tabloids have been reporting for weeks. The Daily Mail has now obtained new information by speaking with friends of Jennifer and Ben. They claim that the divorce is only a matter of time, and attempts to save their relationship have yielded no results.

Moreover, the decision to divorce was reportedly made some time ago, as they have already completed the documents. Friends of the couple also assure that an official statement will be released to the media, contrary to recent reports. They even kindly revealed what it will contain, but at this point, no one will be surprised.

They finalized the divorce papers with her a month ago, but are waiting for the right time to drop them – we learn. At that time, they will release a joint statement that will say how they have much love for each other and how they fought to make it work, but couldn't.

Friends of J.Lo and Ben told the service that in recent weeks, they had given each other one last chance for reconciliation. Unfortunately, their efforts came to nothing, so divorce became their only option.

Honestly, in the end they could not come to a compromise. What they had before is gone and they have both accepted it.
