AceShowbiz - On Thursday, October 10, Ben Affleck was spotted looking tense as he stepped out in Los Angeles, smoking a cigarette and talking on his phone. He was accompanied by his 12-year-old son, Samuel.
The outing came after Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, the second anniversary of their second wedding ceremony. Jennifer Lopez has spoken out about the "sad" and "scary" end of her marriage to Ben Affleck, following months of divorce rumors.
In an in-depth interview with comedian Nikki Glaser, Lopez revealed that the breakup "almost took me out for good" and that she feels "lonely, unfamiliar, and scared." However, she emphasized her resilience and determination to find happiness within herself.
Lopez also shared that she has no interest in dating anyone at the moment and that she recognizes the need for boundaries in relationships. "Somebody who truly loves you will help you heal those parts of yourself," she said. "That's what I've learned about love, that it is a secure thing."
Meanwhile, an insider close to Affleck told DailyMail.com that the actor feels as if he can't escape talk of his split from Lopez. "Ben knows that she will talk about the breakup forever," the insider said. "He would love for her not to talk about it, but he feels she will always speak out."
Prior to the divorce filing, Affleck had reportedly been grappling with his guilt over the failed marriage, with concerns raised about his past substance abuse issues. According to another insider, Lopez has been spending large sums of money on shopping and travel since the split, while Affleck has been supported by his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and his close friend, Matt Damon.
