Divorce attorney Jacqueline Newman, who is not affiliated with Jennifer Lopez or Ben Affleck, speculates that the couple has subtly hinted at their divorce by now. Newman suggests that the couple may be delaying the public announcement for various personal reasons.
“It feels like they are trying to let the public down easy by dropping hints about the marriage ending but not yet officially announcing it. If it is, in fact, over, I would bet that the terms are already worked out and the papers are already signed. The actual legal part of the divorce will be easy, as they undoubtedly have a tight prenuptial agreement, and it was a short-term marriage. It is the court to public opinion which will be the tougher divorce.”
