Ben Affleck reveals very telling phone background as he takes a drive with Jennifer Lopez during divorce rumors

BEN Affleck has flashed his phone background in an apparent dig at recent rumors regarding his marriage to Jennifer Lopez.

In the photos, Ben, 51, and his wife, also known as JLo, were spotted driving away after a family event in Brentwood.

The couple looked very smiley as they slowed down for photos, both dressed casually as they cruised with the windows down.

At one point, Ben even held his phone with its screen turned slightly toward the cameras, showing off his background.

A photo of JLo took up the full screen, with text reading, “Jennifer Affleck” above the stunning shot.

On Reddit, however, some fans didn’t buy Ben’s phone flash, claiming that the photos were staged in light of the couple’s divorce rumors.

“Oh come on, guys! At least make it seem less staged. Why am I amused by all these updates?” one person begged.

“The effort this setup took is kind of amazing. Just the perfect, completely unnatural wrist position to show off that mess,” joked a second social media user.

“They just trolling everyone,” wrote a third.

LOVE DON’T COST A THING

While fans claimed they weren’t convinced by Ben’s phone background photos, an insider claimed that Jennifer was determined to salvage her relationship by faking it.

“When Ben’s having a problem, you can see it all over his face and he does want to talk about it and hash it out, but it can be exhausting,” the celebrity insider told The U.S. Sun.

“That’s not the world Jennifer lives in most of the day. She’s all about winning, not pain, and she’s still determined to have this fairy tale ending with Ben, at any cost.”

The paid hadn’t been seen together for over a month before recent photos, with the source adding, “The bottom line is that she can fake it and he can’t.”

“When he’s falling apart, everybody around him knows and everybody faces a loyalty test if they’re not comforting and consoling him…

“But he’s still got the weight of the world hanging over his shoulders every day and Jennifer doesn’t, despite the recent bad fortune with her tour and new music. She doesn’t ‘do’ misery, at least not around the people closest to her,” they concluded.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck relationship timeline

JLo and Ben were first linked together in 2002 and became engaged later that year. However, they called off the wedding just two years later. They rekindled their romance in 2021 and finally got hitched in 2022. Here is a timeline of their love story:

  • June 2002 – Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli and JLo divorced from her second husband Cris Judd
  • November 2002 – Ben proposed to JLo with a six-carat pink diamond ring
  • September 2003 – JLo and Ben called off their wedding and blamed it on ‘excessive media attention’
  • January 2004 – The celebrity couple announce they are heading separate ways
  • July 2021 – JLo posts an intimate photo of herself beside Ben and they begin dating again
  • April 2022 – Ben proposes to JLo for a second time
  • July 2022 – The celebrity couple officially celebrated their nuptials in a Las Vegas, Nevada, ceremony
  • August 2022 – Ben and JLo have a second A-list wedding at their $8.9million George estate

BROKEN HOME

Although Ben and Jennifer have returned to the public eye, insiders claimed that behind closed doors they live separate lives.

One insider divulged that the duo doesn’t live together after Ben moved out of their shared home “several weeks ago.”

“They started having issues a few months ago as Jen had started ramping up work commitments and prepping for her tour,” they added, explaining the couple’s marriage woes.

Another source claimed that the couple can go weeks without seeing each other.

“It’s over; they’re headed for a divorce and for once [Ben’s] not to blame. He’s focusing on his work and kids now.

“They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her. There’s no way it could have lasted,” they told InTouch.
