Despite swirling rumors of a possible divorce, insiders have disclosed that Jennifer Lopez is actively striving to salvage her marriage with her husband, Ben Affleck, "at all costs."

The 54-year-old singer-actress is said to be making the utmost effort to navigate challenges with her 51-year-old actor husband despite their contrasting approaches to handling life's pressures.

According to a source who spoke to The Sun, "When [Affleck's] having a problem, you can see it all over his face, and he does want to talk about it and hash it out, but it can be exhausting."

"That's not the world [Lopez] lives in most of the day. She's all about winning, not pain, and she's still determined to have this fairy tale ending with [Affleck], at any cost."

When considering photographs and public perception, it was emphasized that her ability to fake it surpasses Affleck's.

The source added, "When he's falling apart, everybody around him knows and everybody faces a loyalty test if they're not comforting and consoling him."

"He's genuinely grateful for his sobriety, and I don't think he'll fall off the wagon again anytime soon. But he's still got the weight of the world hanging over his shoulders every day and [Lopez] doesn't, despite the recent bad fortune with her tour and new music. She doesn't 'do' misery, at least not around the people closest to her."

This comes after Lopez attended the 2024 Met Gala earlier this month.

As reported by a source from The Sun, the couple's behavior was no surprise to those who were familiar with them.

"They're willing to give each other a lot of space when opportunity knocks," the source explained.

"They are independent people who don't need to be with one another 24/7 like some Hollywood couples do. Jennifer doing the Met Ball and Ben doing the Brady Roast doesn't look weird to people who know them."

"They give each other a lot of freedom, even when everything is great."

This week, reports surfaced in InTouch magazine suggesting that Affleck has reached a breaking point and decided to move out of his shared residence with the "On the Floor" hitmaker

"It's over; they're headed for a divorce and for once [Ben's] not to blame," a source told the outlet. He's focusing on his work and kids now."
