Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s split keeps the Gone Girl star on high alert. Despite both celebrities steering clear of each other, they each continue to wear their wedding rings. Things are not going well for Bennifer, and the couple’s marriage may soon end. However, until all the final details are ironed out, Ben walks on eggshells for good reason.
The couple’s recent actions have left fans of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez in a state of bewilderment. They are seen without their wedding rings one moment, and the next, they are back on. However, sources close to the couple reveal that Ben Affleck is ‘petrified’ by Jennifer Lopez, adding to the intrigue.
According to Radar Online, Ben is working hard to keep the peace between himself and Jennifer Lopez. The insider claims that he is terrified to remove his ring because he is afraid that if he angers JLo, she will go after him in court and try to destroy his life.
“Ben never expected Jennifer to embrace his decision to leave. But he’s freaked by how hard it is for her to let go, and he’s living in fear of how far she’ll take it!” states the informant.
Jennifer Lopez’s Vindictive Side Keeps Ben Affleck On High Alert
The Bennifer source tells the RO publication that Jen is furious with Ben over how he hurriedly moved his belongings from their marital home. They also claim that Jennifer Lopez is manipulating Ben Affleck. She is pulling all the strings in their divorce, and so far, Ben is going along with it to keep her happy.
“She insisted they wear their rings then she had a fit over him moving his stuff out. No wonder he’s a wreck! Ben can’t handle conflict right now, but she would rather argue than be ignored. Everyone knows you don’t mess with J.Lo and get away with it!”
So, to keep things as peaceful as possible, Ben Affleck is going along with Jennifer Lopez’s demands. He doesn’t want their divorce to be a long, nasty court battle. However, Jennifer is so hurt even those closest to her are unsure how she may respond in court.
It also doesn’t help that Jennifer Lopez continues to spend time with Ben Affleck’s children, especially Violet. It is making the upcoming divorce transition harder for everyone involved. Jen also doesn’t like taking most of the blame for the couple’s failed marriage.
Neither Affleck, 51, nor Lopez, 54, have publicly commented about any issues in their romance. However, sources tell People Magazine that their problems run much more profoundly than Ben’s trouble handling her status as a superstar. A lot of blame is being tossed around, and they have been trying to maintain a united front despite their split. However, according to the Bennifer insiders, that could change at any given minute at this stage of the game.
