Jennifer Lopez is on the brink of divorce from Ben Affleck, her husband of two years.
She is also discovering that her on-and-off best friend has some painful words she wishes she could share but has been forced to censor herself.
Leah Remini and Jennifer Lopez were best pals for over a decade until Ben Affleck returned to the picture. The reconciliation of Lopez and Affleck marked the end of the relationship with Remini.
The pair had a massive fallout because the former Scientologist told her the truth about Affleck, a truth that felt like a betrayal to Lopez.
The podcast host was adamant that Affleck was not husband material and would break Lopez’s heart again.
She is sadly correct about the rekindled romance — Lopez and Affleck have split their assets, sold their marital home, consulted top lawyers, and are counting the days until they file for divorce.
As Leah Remini, who has reconnected with Lopez, watches her through this humiliating ordeal, she would love to pick up the phone and say three heartbreaking words.
Page Six explained: “They were friends for years. She wants to reach out to her, but she can’t just call up and say, ‘I told you so.'”
In the upcoming days, Leah Remini will be forced to make that dreaded phone call and be the supportive friend Lopez needs.
A source tells Page Six that the pop star’s marital issues have been resolved after the pals had a falling out over her marriage to Ben Affleck.
TMZ and Page Six have confirmed that the end of the marriage is near, and Lopez is furious and humiliated because Affleck pushed for the reconciliation.
A source tells Page Six: “She’s furious. He has humiliated her. He initiated getting back together.”
The person in the know stated: “He humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of record; they’re not young kids.”
Affleck proposed in 2022 with a ring with the message “I am not going anywhere” engraved. The couple eloped and had a huge wedding that same year.
Lopez spent millions on an album and documentary inspired by her romance with Affleck to celebrate the love affair. The entertainer is further angry because the couple’s respective children are involved.
The person in the know stated: “There are five kids involved in this. She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted that it is over.”
Lopez gave in to Affleck’s love for a second time because “she is a romantic.” According to TMZ, Affleck is holding off on filing for divorce to “spare her more embarrassment. He is very protective of her.”
The media outlet confirmed that Lopez and Affleck no longer speak to each other.
