Everyone’s long national nightmare is finally over. On January 6, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s divorce was finalized, bringing to an end one of the most stunning and drawn-out storylines of 2024. Surely, neither of them wanted it to last this long, with reports claiming their marriage was practically over all the way back in April.
Over the past few months, since Lopez filed for divorce in August, the two have gone their separate ways while also being seen for sporadic family events to keep their children happy. Those infrequent but necessary meetings have likely made it hard to completely move on from one another. That’s especially true given new details emerging that Lopez feels her marriage to Affleck was a “nightmare”.
Jennifer Lopez is ready to close the door on Ben Affleck
A report from PEOPLE, with a source that’s knowledgeable about the situation, has shed new light on how Lopez is feeling with the door closed on this chapter of her life.
The fairy tale she was promised turned out to be a nightmare in the end. She’s in a really good place and just wants to close the door on this crazy chapter.
At the beginning, it surely must have felt like a dream come true for both of them. After dating and briefly being engaged in the early 2000s, life had come full circle for the couple as they married in 2022.
Although they expected to live happily ever after, that was not the case at all. No one really knows exactly what went wrong throughout the past two years or so, but it’s clear the two aren’t meant for each other.
