Jennifer Lopez Is Reportedly ‘On a Mission’ to Do This Revenge Plan Amid Alleged Split From Ben Affleck

Amid Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s alleged divorce, it seems both of them are going down classic breakup avenues. While Affleck just bought a multi-million dollar home away from it all, sources allege that Lopez is focusing on a revenge plan, specifically by making a “revenge” body.

Both insiders and sources told Life & Style Magazine, “J. Lo’s convinced that the best revenge is looking good, so she’s thrown herself into a total body makeover, to the detriment of pretty much every other part of her life.”

“She’s in the gym at the crack of dawn every morning for a two-hour session with her trainer, then she has a breakfast of egg whites and grilled veggies before getting full glam done so she can head out to get her photo taken and pretend she’s happy,” the source alleged. Now, this isn’t too shocking, considering how adamant Lopez has always been about going to the gym.

Lopez allegedly does strength training for hours on end, and she apparently refused to do it alone before she and Affleck seemingly broke up, per TheThings.

“She can’t stand the idea that people think she’s sitting home alone crying over Ben so even though the last thing she wants to do is put on a smile for the cameras, she forces herself to do it,” says the source. “..She’s hell bent on getting more shredded than she’s ever been.”

The source added that her health team is a bit worried amid this alleged revenge plan. “Most trainers would tell her to take a day off in between but she’s not hearing it, she’s on a mission and won’t stop until she feels like her body is tighter than it’s ever been so she can show Ben what he’s missing. It’s all very extreme, even if she does look great,” the source said.

For those who don’t know, Lopez and Affleck fell in love on the set of the film Gigli. They appeared in a couple more projects together, and got engaged by the end of 2002, per People. In 2003, they postponed their wedding and then broke up days before, due to the paparazzi and pressure they faced, and were broken up by 2004.

Fast forward to 2021, Lopez and Affleck rekindled their romance. A year later, they got engaged and married in a lavish ceremony, but as of July 2024, it seems clear that trouble is definitely afoot in their romance.

While neither has publicly commented on whether or not they’re splitting up, many can’t seem to guess what’s happening. Some PR experts believe this “will they, won’t they divorce” news cycle is merely a strategy to distract fans from Lopez’s failed tour, while others are convinced Affleck and Lopez’s romance will be ending for good soon.

Joe Dillon, divorce mediator and relationship expert at Equitable Mediation, told SheKnows that the duo seems to be heading for a type of divorce proceeding many celeb couples have been going to.

“Couples often prefer this method as it removes the pressure of court-imposed deadlines and milestones. It allows them to perform necessary discovery and disclosure at their own pace and provides ample time to negotiate thoroughly before entering the formal filing process,” Dillon said.
