“We went somewhere with [Jennifer]—I can’t remember because she’s so famous, and she creates this—people love her, and she really represents something important to people,” Affleck explained. “[To me,] people are like, ‘Hey, I like your movie,’ and then they’re like ‘AAAHHHH! J-LO! It’s amazing, you know what I mean?”
It’s not all good, though, he explained. “I don’t like a lot of attention. This is why people see me and they’re like, ‘Why is this dude always mad?’ Because someone had their camera sticking in my face, and I’m like, ‘OK, here we go.’”
Affleck didn’t go into any detail about the state of their relationship, though, and most of the information we have about the rumored divorce has come from anonymous sources. Speculation that the couple was inching towards a breakup began circulating in mid-May, 2024, then in early June, news broke that Affleck and J-Lo’s marital home in Beverly Hills had hit the market.
