Affleck’s major move amid split rumours

Ben Affleck has reportedly made a major decision amid ongoing rumours that he and wife Jennifer Lopez have called it quits.

Ben Affleck reportedly bought a new home as rumours continue to swirl that he and Jennifer Lopez are splitting.

According to TMZ, the Good Will Hunting star recently purchased a $US20.5 million ($31.3 million) mansion in the ritzy Pacific Palisades neighbourhood of Los Angeles as his and Lopez’s marital home still sits on the market.

According to the report, his new bachelor pad allegedly boasts five bedrooms with walk-in closets and six bathrooms. Inside the main house are reportedly breakfast and dining spaces, a family room, a den and a media room with a dedicated powder room.

There is also reportedly a separate guesthouse on the property.

Reps for the actor did not immediately respond to Page Six for comment.

Affleck, 51, and Lopez, 55, have been trying to offload their 38,000-square-foot home since June. While they originally tried to sell the house off-market, they took their listing public earlier this month.

Page Six confirmed they put some of their art pieces up for sale as well.

The Gigli co-stars first purchased their pad in June 2023 — almost a year after they eloped in Las Vegas — for just over $US60 million ($91.5 million).

They have listed the massive 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom home for $US68 million ($103.7 million) and are reportedly “in a rush to sell it.”

“They thought they could sell it off-market but made a game-time decision in order to put more eyes on the property,” a source told Us Weekly on July 13.

“Ben especially wants to be done with the house. He was never happy there,” they added.

In June, an insider told People Affleck “never liked” their house because “it’s too far away from his kids.”

The On the Floor singer, meanwhile, reportedly thinks it’s “too big.”

The pair have been spending time apart as divorce chatter continues. Lopez was in the Hamptons during their second wedding anniversary and her 55th birthday, which fell on Wednesday, while Affleck remained in Los Angeles.

Page Six exclusively reported the singer and actress celebrated with family and friends ahead of her special day at the Italian restaurant, Arthur & Sons, which is located on Long Island.

As his wife celebrated, Affleck was spotted running errands on the West Coast.
