The couple fell in love in the early 2000s but ended the engagement in 2004. In 2021, they fell back in love before tying the knot in 2022. Unfortunately, their romance might be fleeting yet again. Lopez recently left a massive tip on an ice cream cone as rumors suggest she’s trying to rehab her “public image.”</p>

<p id=”par-2_67″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopezs-mom-thinks-ben-affleck-threw-towel-marriage-source-says.html/”>Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck</a> have allegedly been heading toward divorce for months. The couple fell back in love in 2021 and quickly tied the knot with a Vegas wedding in 2022. However, they allegedly have serious incompatibilities. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/photos-jennifer-lopez-ben-afflecks-60-million-home-appear-zillow-selling.html/”>Lopez and Affleck publicly listed their mansion</a> for sale in July 2024 after reports that Affleck now prefers to live in a rental unit alone, furthering the split rumors.</p>
<p id=”par-3_36″>Lopez and Affleck didn’t spend the Fourth of July together. While Affleck stayed in Los Angeles, Lopez reportedly spent time in the Hamptons in New York. As of July 15, 2024, she remains in the Hamptons.</p>

<p id=”par-5_35″>In the past, Lopez was called out for alleged rude behavior to service industry professionals and those who worked for her. Emily Watford, a worker at an arena Lopez performed at, recalled Lopez’s inexcusable rudeness.</p>
<p id=”par-6_59″>“What was bad was that a doorman looked at her, and apparently she hates when staff look at her,” Watford posted online, according to <a href=”https://okmagazine.com/p/rudest-celebrities-hollywood-jennifer-lopez-ellen-degeneres/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>OK! Magazine</a>. “So, she started yelling at her whoever about it, in front of the doorman like he wasn’t there. He said, so much for Jenny From the Block. Well, she got him fired.” </p>

<p id=”par-7_37″>Jennifer Lopez is under scrutiny due to the divorce rumors looming over her and Ben Affleck. She also received criticism for canceling her 2024 tour. Lopez claimed she canceled the tour to spend time with her family.</p>
<p id=”par-8_65″>“Everyone in J.Lo’s circle feels it’s pretty unfair that she’s the one getting all the blame in this,” a source told In Touch Weekly, according to <a href=”https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopez-trying-improve-her-152706833.html” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Yahoo</a>. “You just have to look at the way Ben’s been behaving to see the sort of anger issues he’s got. No doubt J.Lo is quite pleased people are starting to get a glimpse of who Ben really is.”</p>
<p id=”par-9_24″>The source added that Lopez hopes to “improve her public image” and wants to “highlight” her “down-to-earth side” amid reports of a diva attitude.</p>
<p id=”par-10_70″>“Right now, Jennifer is just focused on getting her body back into the best shape possible and her career back on track with new projects and being the best mom she can be,” the source added. “She’s also making a concerted effort to improve her public image. It’s no secret that she can be quite the diva, but she also has a very down-to-earth side and wants to highlight that.”</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-a-pr-expert-says-jennifer-lopez-would-be-under-harsher-scrutiny-than-ben-affleck-in-the-event-of-a-divorce”>A PR expert says Jennifer Lopez would be under ‘harsher scrutiny’ than Ben Affleck in the event of a divorce</h2>
<p id=”par-11_38″>PR expert Lauren Beeching told <a href=”https://www.the-sun.com/lifestyle/11426636/jennifer-lopez-ben-affleck-divorce-infidelity-marriage/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Sun</a> that Jennifer Lopez should expect “harsher scrutiny” than Ben Affleck in the event of a divorce. Beeching noted that <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/pr-expert-explains-jennifer-lopezs-biggest-fear-divorce-ben-affleck.html/”>Lopez’s “biggest fear”</a> would be seeing “rumors” on social media regarding her marriage.</p>
<p id=”par-12_46″>“If there is a divorce, her image and brand might suffer negative publicity, impacting sales and partnerships,” Beeching explained. “Jennifer should focus on maintaining her image throughout this process. Jennifer could shift the narrative from her relationship status to reminding the public that she is J.Lo.”</p>
