The house of discord between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez that haunts them like a nightmare

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are reportedly facing a split, with their $68 million Beverly Hills estate at the center of tension. According to sources, both Affleck and Lopez were unhappy with the property from the beginning.

Purchased in May 2023, the 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom mansion was put back on the market in July 2024 for $7 million more than they paid, as rumors about their impending divorce circulated”The $68 million mansion was Ben’s idea and a major compromise for her,” the source told People.

“She agreed to it because of its spacious layout, accommodating both their families, a gym and a pickleball court, office space, plus it has two private entrances.”

His preference was to live closer to his children-Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel-who reside with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, in Brentwood, approximately seven miles away.

The source added that the distance made Affleck’s life more difficult, which may have contributed to his decision to rent a separate home in Brentwood over the summer to stay closer to his kids.The absence of a prenup has sparked concerns that the divorce could turn messy, particularly since any earnings or acquisitions during their marriage could be treated as shared property under California law. Lopez, in her filing, listed her assets as “unknown,” raising further questions about the financial aspects of the split.
