STUCK With EACH OTHER

BEN AFFLECK AND JENNIFER LOPEZ WERE SUPPOSED TO LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER IN THEIR $60 MILLION MANSION. NOW THEY CAN'T AGREE ON WHAT TO DO WITH IT.

STAYING CIVIL Post-split, Ben has been openly supportive of Jennifer, calling her acting in Unstoppable, which he produced, "spectacular."

IT was meant to be their dream home. In May 2023, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez splashed out $60.8 million on a 38,000-squarefoot home in Beverly Hills. With its 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms on a 5-acre lot, the property had plenty of room for the newlyweds’ blended brood of five kids — her twins, Max and Emme, 16, with Marc Anthony, and Violet, 19, Fin, 15, and 12-year-old Samuel, his kids with Jennifer Garner — along with J.Lo’s mom. Indoor basketball and pickleball courts, a state-ofthe-art gym, boxing ring, sports lounge, bar and infinity pool made it an overthe-top palace suitable for Bennifer 2.0.

Their happy days there were few, however, and after much speculation about the health of their marriage — and 47 days without being photographed together — Jennifer, 55, filed for divorce on Aug. 20, 2024, their second wedding anniversary. Now insiders tell Star the former dream house has become a nightmare for the exes as it languishes on the market. “Ben just wants to reduce the price and unload the property,” says a source of the 52-year-old, adding that it represents everything that went wrong in their relationship. “Ben would never have bought a $60 million house like that on his own. He went along with it because he was in love with Jennifer.”
