Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s marriage is not in a place where he has room for error. Rumors reveal the pair to be dealing with many marital issues lately. So Ben’s wild rant during the Netflix Roast of Tom Brady couldn’t have come at a worse time. The actor skipped out on Jennifer’s big night as co-host of the Met Gala, claiming ‘scheduling conflicts’, but fans are not buying into that excuse.
Jennifer Lopez Ashamed of Ben Affleck’s Outrageous Behavior
These past few months have been far from ideal for Jennifer Lopez. Her latest album and movie have not performed well, and she is under significant pressure. The singer is concerned that her career is spiraling downward, a situation she attributes to the influence of Ben Affleck. It’s not hard to see how these circumstances could strain their marriage.
On Sunday night, Ben went off the rails while appearing on the Netflix special The Roast of Tom Brady. Instead of following the usual roast protocol, Ben Affleck looked to have snapped and wandered off into a crazed and personal rant about social media. The actor clarified that he detests social media, calling it the most toxic thing he has ever experienced.
The audience and guests attending Tom Brady’s Roast looked uncomfortable as the actor rambled on for several minutes.
Fans immediately called out Ben on social media. They claimed he looked poorly and described him as out of sorts, sweaty, and having difficulty talking. They said it was hard to watch and that he was an embarrassment.
Ben Lays Low and Waits For Jennifer to Forgive Him?
Unfortunately, this all took place just one day before his wife, Jennifer Lopez’s big night at the Met Gala, which she attended alone. According to People, Ben Affleck’s rep, the actor was unable to accompany his wife due to a scheduling conflict. But fans claim BS and believe JLo was likely humiliated by her husband and didn’t want to risk another shameful display.
Some fans think Ben Affleck is in the doghouse with his wife, Jennifer Lopez. She is doing everything she can to save face and salvage her career, so she doesn’t have time for Ben to act like a fool. Even if, in theory, he made some good points about social media, it was just the wrong place and the wrong time.
It may take Jennifer Lopez some time to move on from this one. This is just one more problem that the couple could have done without, especially since their marriage is reportedly so fragile. It looks like Ben Affleck has some serious making-up to do.
