Jennifer Lopez’s mom, Guadalupe Rodríguez, eager for her daughter to move on from Ben Affleck, believes the singer is losing herself amidst rumors of marital strife.
According to sources, Rodríguez advises Lopez to “cut her losses” rather than prolonging what appears to be a troubled marriage.
Speculation about a potential divorce between Lopez and Affleck has intensified in recent weeks, prompting family members, including sisters Leslie Ann and Lynda, to voice concerns that Lopez has veered from her true self.
While the status of their marriage remains uncertain, insiders suggest familial support for Lopez to prioritize her children and career over salvaging the relationship with Affleck.
According to recent reports, Rodríguez is concerned that ongoing rumors about the state of Lopez’s marriage to Affleck are taking a toll on her daughter’s well-being.
Recent weeks have seen persistent rumors of Lopez and Affleck’s marriage being on the brink of collapse, with many anticipating an imminent split.
An insider shared with the Daily Mail:
“Jennifer’s mom told her, ‘Cut your losses and move on to avoid getting any deeper in this mess.'”
The source also mentioned that Rodríguez expressed regret about her daughter’s years spent in a relationship with Affleck, hinting at Lopez’s previous engagement to Affleck and subsequent marriage.
“He was not the person she built him up to be,” the insider continued. “It’s taken too much of a toll on her, and because of this, she has lost sight of who she is and what she stands for.”
Lopez’s sisters, Leslie Ann and Lynda, are reportedly supportive of their mother’s concerns about their sister’s well-being amid her marital difficulties.
“Jennifer currently feels like Ben does not deserve her, and her sisters agree,” the insider added. “They want Jennifer to be happy, but they feel she’s lost sight of herself in what was supposed to be.”
While it remains uncertain who might initiate divorce proceedings between Lopez and Affleck, the source indicated that Lopez’s sisters are urging her to take action.
“They want her to focus on her kids and career rather than prolonging a breakup with Affleck,” the insider revealed. “They believe he would rather end things than make an effort to fix them.”
Sources close to Lopez have indicated that the actress is deeply saddened by the situation with Affleck.
“Atlas” star recently returned from a trip to Italy and seems resigned to the possibility of a divorce.
“The marriage is completely over, and Jennifer is heartbroken,” a source told Fox News. “She loves love and wanted this to work so badly.”
Meanwhile, Affleck appears to be focusing on work and spending time with his children amid the breakup.
“He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids,” the insider revealed about the “Accountant” actor.
On the Fourth of July, while Lopez was reportedly in the Hamptons with her manager, Benny Medina, and friends, Affleck was spotted in Los Angeles with his children.
Affleck has been seen wearing and not wearing his wedding ring on various occasions, similar to Lopez, who recently appeared in a video without her ring.
Though neither Affleck nor Lopez has confirmed the state of their marriage, reports suggest they have begun selling off some of their belongings, including artwork sold at an auction in June.
Additionally, the couple has reportedly listed their $65 million, 12-bedroom home for sale, with Affleck having moved into a rental property in Brentwood, closer to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner and their children.
