Jennifer Lopez has “ended” her attempts to make her marriage to Ben Affleck work, a source tells DailyMail.com.
“Jenny has had enough and really tried, but she can’t do more, she’s not getting better, she’s getting worse,” a music industry source told DailyMail.com.
The main reason she left her husband was because he was always “grumpy and negative” like Sesame Street’s Oscar The Grouch, the source added.
The 54-year-old singer is sad to see the end of her nuptials, but “is trying to make the most of it by exercising, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025.”
One of those new plans is to resume his This Is Me… Live tour in the summer of 2025, when he turns 56. She canceled the 2024 tour that was scheduled to begin in July to “recover herself.”

“She’s excited about going on tour next year, when her personal life is calmer and she can connect with her fans. She’s taking her tribe with her and making the most of it,” the source said.
López is also “shocked” by the bad press she has been receiving and which she considers unfair.
“If people could see what she’s really been through, it would be easier for her,” the source said.
“Ben is a great guy, but he can be grumpy and depressing. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn’t smile. If they saw what it was really like, they wouldn’t attack her,” the friend said. by Jennifer.
“He smokes non-stop, curses and seems irritated most of the time. Great director and actor, but he doesn’t laugh much with him, you know? the source said. “However, he is a wonderful father.”
Lopez plans to move forward.
“She’s really not used to this kind of bad comments, but she’ll get over it.” “She will move on,” the friend said.
‘Jennifer is a very smart and strong woman and she will bounce back, she always does!’
These days he has relied on his closest friends.
One of them is stylist Shawn Barton, whose nickname is Beezy. Another is vocal coach Stevie Mackey.

There have been many reports that Ben and Jennifer will announce their divorce soon and plan to do so on a Friday, which is the norm among celebrities who are separating.
When the source was asked about this, they said, “I think they wanted to wait until all the kids were out of school and done with school plans and all that before making their big announcement.” “They are putting children first.”
She has Max and Emme with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.
And Ben has Violet, Seraphina and Samuel with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
And as for how Jennifer and Ben are getting along these days, the source said they are being “cordial” with each other.
So what happened to the once jovial Ben who used to smile at fans and make out with Jennifer in public?
The source points out the pressure on Ben’s career.
“He’s filming Accounting 2 now and the hours are very long, he’s working hard on it and it’s a lot to juggle marriage and kids,” the source said. “That’s why sometimes he’s not in the best mood.”
The 54-year-old singer is sad to see the end of her nuptials, but “is trying to make the most of it by exercising, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025.” Seen with Emme on June 8.

Meanwhile, Lopez cleared her schedule this summer to give herself some time off and reexamine her life.
“She lives alone and not with Ben, I think everyone already knows that, so it’s a big change for her and the kids,” the friend said. In fact, Ben moved into a $100k a month rental near Garner months ago.
“Of course Jenny is sad, she loves Ben, but they are too different, there is no give and take, there is no mixing, they just go their separate ways.”
The source added that Jennifer gave it her all: “She really tried hard to make it work, but it just didn’t work.”
‘She invested a lot of time and energy, and I think he did the same. There is no one here to blame. She just wasn’t in the cards. It is very difficult for two big stars to maintain a marriage, one has to give in, and in this case neither gave in.’
However, instead of crying at home, Jennifer is making plans for a better life.
“She’s looking at scripts and thinking about the year 2025. After the success of Atlas, she’s getting a lot of calls for movies, everyone wants to work with her. She loves being still on the A-list when she’s in her fifties!
These days he has relied on his closest friends. One of them is stylist Shawn Barton, whose nickname is Beezy, pictured left. Another is vocal coach Stevie Mackey.
He has earned a lot of respect.
This week, Atlas songwriter Andrew Lockington said he was “blown away” by Lopez’s creativity and work ethic.
She was not only the main protagonist of the film, but also the filmmaker and producer during post-production, he added.
She also said that she was in the editing room and involved in the music. She also went to screenings to see what the public thought.
And he noted that he can’t believe how hard he works even with “all the rumors” circulating about his personal life: “I can’t imagine what it would be like to be under that kind of microscope in your life.”
