AceShowbiz - Jennifer Lopez won't let Ben Affleck split ruin her summer. The "On the Floor" hitmaker, who has filed for divorce from the "Gone Girl" actor, talked about being "unbothered" in a new social media post.
Making use of Instagram on Saturday, August 31, the 55-year-old shared a photo dump that included powerful messages. Aside from pictures of herself, there was a quote that read, "She's in bloom and unbothered, out of reach and at peace."
Another quote read, "Everything is unfolding in divine order." She also posted a mirror selfie with her sister Lynda Lopez. In the accompanying message, the pop star wrote, "Oh, it was a summer."
J.Lo filed the divorce petition from Ben on Tuesday, August 20, coinciding with the second anniversary of their wedding. In the petition, she included a request to restore her maiden name after the divorce is granted.
Sources close to the "Atlas" star later revealed to PEOPLE that she is "upset and disappointed" with the actor. The couple has been apart for most of the summer, fueling speculation about their relationship. The source says that J.Lo is struggling to live in the Beverly Hills mansion they purchased in 2023.
"She and Ben bought the house for the whole family," the source explained. "It's way too big for her and filled with too many memories as well."
J.Lo filed for divorce without an attorney, suggesting that she wanted to move forward quickly. Another source said that she is "doing as well as she can" but "didn't want a divorce."
J.Lo and Ben rekindled their early 2000s romance in 2021 and married in two ceremonies in 2022. However, their relationship has hit a roadblock, and the singer is reportedly dealing with the emotional fallout of the divorce.
