He said the situation was completely crazy, with people going wild when they saw them. He recalled there was a woman in a tight purple outfit, who was smoking marijuana, and she started running backwards while filming and shouting “LO!!”

Affleck also opened up about his thoughts on being publicly photographed and why people often perceive him as ‘grumpy.’ 

He explained: “I’m also a little bit shy. 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.'”

The comments come amid ongoing rumors that Affleck and Lopez’s marriage, which began in 2022 after the couple rekindled their romance, may be in trouble.

Many have speculated that the pair could be heading for divorce.

And that seems to be the number one reason it is over. She relishes being in the spotlight and he does not. Had JLo given her all…..she would have prioritized her blended family and Ben’s wishes to be more private while still maintaining a career, one user said.

Good luck with that proposed tour next year.  She still won’t sell any tickets and her star has dimmed considerably this year and I am betting it won’t be any better in 2025, the second user commented.

JLo is leaning on her close friends one being her stylist and the other her vocal coach. Hope she has some real friends and just not “friends” on her pay roll, the third user said.

Real estate broker Santiago Aran from The Agency is reportedly marketing the house, but there have been no interested buyers so far.

J.Lo and Ben are said to be asking around $65 million for the mansion. 

However, they will likely incur a significant loss due to broker commissions, a new tax on ultra-expensive properties, and interior design costs.
