'She had him fooled': Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's marriage rocked by singer's devotion to career
Celebrity couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's marriage might be on the rocks once again after the former is staying focused on grabbing as many projects as she can and putting her work-centric life before her husband. According to a trusted source on RadarOnline, "She had him fooled for a while, but Ben's realizing Jennifer is as career-driven as she ever was."
The two-month-old marriage began facing divorce rumors in its early stages. However, it appears that the honeymoon phase of the young union has also ended. Currently, the 'Papi' singer is tackling three film projects which include 'Shotgun Wedding' alongside Josh Duhamel, 'Mother', which will stream on Netflix, and the upcoming horror flick 'Atlas'. This is not all as the artist will also be seen as the new face of Intimissimi lingerie. With such a heavy workload, J Lo has hardly any time left for her family and husband Ben Affleck.

The 'Gone Girl' actor got a hint of Lopez's work ethic while returning to Los Angeles with their children. It appears that the singer stayed behind in Europe for work as she had a fashion photoshoot in Capri, Italy. The insider said that while her new husband was "blown away" by Lopez's workaholic nature, he is also "disappointed" with her choices. "It was a huge wake-up call for him," the source added.
Both divorcees have children with their ex-partners. Ben has three children - Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10, with his former wife Jennifer Garner, whereas J Lo is mother to 14-year-old twins Emme and Max with her third husband Marc Anthony. The stars' busy life and bringing the two families together have been trouble for the two. However, as the reports suggest, Emme and Seraphina have bonded quite well ever since they met.
However, this does not mean that the family has found their peace yet as Ben Affleck's smoking habits have caused another rift between the two. "Keeping everyone happy at the same time has been near impossible," the source shared and added, "She absolutely hates Ben's cigarettes. He promised to give it up, but with all her nagging he's smoking more than ever."
The trouble between the newlyweds keeps escalating as J Lo admits her issues with Ben Affleck's untidy personality. "Ben doesn't clean up after himself, which irritates the hell out of Jennifer," told the insider. During such tough times, Ben's ex-partner Jennifer Garner has been strong support for the former.
