Divorce rumors intensified after couple's separate living arrangement surfaced
Rumors about the couple's impending divorce began circulating last month when reports emerged that they have been living separately. These speculations were further fueled by Lopez's announcement in May about canceling her tour to spend more time with her family. Currently, Lopez resides in their mansion while Affleck lives in a rental, with the couple reportedly meeting every few days.
Family mansion up for sale amidst divorce rumors
Lopez and Affleck, who married in 2022, purchased a $60M mansion in May 2023 for their blended family.

However, an insider told People that the reason for selling was because Affleck "never liked the house" and found it "too far away from his kids."
