Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have officially made the move to end their marriage. JLo filed for divorce in late August, and since then both parties have been seen looking happy and healthy in public. However, behind closed doors things are a bit different. Affleck is said to be scared and worried about every move he makes as he’s living in fear of upsetting his estranged wife amid their divorce.
According to Heat World, Ben Affleck is holding himself back from living life to the fullest because he’s worried about Jennifer Lopez retaliating against him in their divorce. Although the couple have split, JLo is said to be a jealous person. Meanwhile, the actor is allegedly fighting off women now that he’s single. He’s even been adamantly denying rumors that he’s dating Kick Kennedy.

“How smoothly the divorce goes is going to depend entirely on Ben and Jen playing nice, which means he’s got no choice but to suck it up and be as accommodating to her as possible,” an insider dished. “He’s pretty much living in fear right now, which is why he made such a big point of denying the Kick rumors.”
“He really wants to start having fun again, and he’s got so many hot women blowing up his phone, but he’s putting a halt on dating plans. He can’t risk upsetting Jen,” the source added.
Meanwhile, Ben Affleck is said to be frustrated by “being held back” due to his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. He’s allegedly has his fingers crossed that she’ll want to wrap up the divorce quickly. However, for now he’s reportedly stuck being on his best behavior so that he doesn’t “trigger her.”
The Gone Girl star is said to be upset about the fact that JLo still has “control” over him even after their split. “He’s basically at her mercy,” says the insider, adding that she has the power to make things “miserable” for him. However, That’s not what Ben and Jen want, especially with their kids in the middle of the drama.
All eyes will certainly be on Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck as they navigate their divorce. Of course, their behavior and dating patterns will also be a huge topic of interest to their fans in the weeks and months after their split.
