Actor Matt Damon tried to warn his friend Ben Affleck about marrying Jennifer Lopez, according to DailyMail.com.
“Matt tried to warn Ben when he got back together with JLo that this could happen,” an anonymous source told DailyMail.com. “Matt was there to help Ben get it together after their first split and he felt like this would happen again.”
The source continued to the British publication: “As things started falling apart, Matt told Ben that he supports whatever choice he makes but wants him to jump in and focus on his work.”
The June 27 report comes as Lopez and Affleck continue to be hammered with headlines speculating that their marriage is headed for divorce. They have not confirmed a split. However, in early June, TMZ reported that the couple is living apart, with Affleck moving into a rental property in Brentwood, California.
According to People Magazine, Lopez and Affleck married in July 2022 after getting back together in 2021. They previously were engaged after dating for two years, but they broke up for the first time in 2004, People Magazine reported. In between, Lopez had two children with singer Marc Anthony, and Affleck had three children with actress Jennifer Garner. Both of those relationships ended in divorce. Lopez has also been married to waiter Ojani Noa and dancer Cris Judd, making Affleck her fourth husband, according to Cosmopolitan.
