I leaned into her and I was like, ‘As soon as they start rolling, I’m going to slide away from you and leave you sitting next to Trevor.’ She goes, ‘You better f—ing not leave.’ That’s a husband-and-wife thing.”The source continued that the reunited couple was trying to go the distance, but couldn’t make it work.”They were trying to work through it, but when the mood swings and the big highs and big lows informed a toxicity that was pervasive, no one can help you – you have to help yourself,” they said.”But I would not be so bold to say there isn’t love – of course there is… The world was rooting for them, but who he said he was and who he turned out to be were two different people.”Conversely, Amy Laurent, a professional matchmaker and the author of “8 Weeks to Everlasting: A Step-By-Step Guide to Getting (and Keeping!) the Guy You Want,” told Fox News Digital that Lopez’s lifestyle might have contributed to the split. “Jennifer Lopez is a powerhouse who leads a life far different from most of us… Celebrities, in general, are in very unique circumstances so are naturally going to face much greater challenges in finding love.

She did so without a lawyer, Fox News Digital confirmed through court documents. Lopez cited “irreconcilable differences” for the reason of their split, adding that they’d separated on April 26.Representatives for both Affleck and Lopez did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
