Singer Jennifer Lopez, 55, is filing for divorce from actor husband Ben Affleck, 52, after two years of marriage. Lopez filed for divorce on Tuesday, August 20. April 26 is indicated as the resignation date in the application.

The gap between the Hollywood star couple began to crack in the spring. Many Yankee media reported that the couple had already moved apart in May, and throughout the summer more cases appeared to confirm the rumors of a breakup. For example, Affleck did not attend his wife’s 55th birthday, but according to the Daily Mail’s sources, he was shopping for apartments.

Now People magazine has learned from an inside source the real reason why Lopez is filing for divorce.

– She (Jennifer) is very disappointed and sad. Ben hasn’t given any indication that he wants to continue the marriage. He has shown no commitment or interest in making his marriage work. It has come to the point that she (Jennifer) only needs to take care of herself, the source tells the magazine.

The magazine’s sources also said earlier that Lopez would have tried everything to make the relationship work.

– He tried really hard to make things work. Her heart is broken, sources tell the magazine.

– However, the children are his number one priority, as always.

The couple’s second divorce

The couple managed to be married for two years. This is their second time breaking up.

Lopez and Affleck were romantically involved for the first time at the beginning of the millennium. They got engaged in November 2002. The wedding was supposed to take place in September 2003, but they postponed it “due to too much media attention”. The couple finally divorced in January 2004.

Months later, Lopez married singer-actor Marc Anthony in June 2004. They have two children together, twins Max and Emme. The couple divorced in 2014.

Affleck has three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, Violet18, Seraphina 15 and Samuel 12. The couple divorced in 2015.
