Ben Affleck’s decision to divorce Jennifer Lopez may have been driven by an unexpected reason—her launch of the Delola cocktail line. According to The Daily Mail, Affleck, a recovering alcoholic, was reportedly “devastated” by Lopez’s decision to create and promote an alcohol brand, despite early claims that he supported her venture.
Sources close to Affleck suggest that his discomfort stems from his ongoing battle with sobriety and Lopez’s apparent focus on financial growth, despite his struggles with addiction. An insider allegedly told The Daily Mail, “Ben had to fight to get his life back after overcoming alcohol. Knowing the risks, Jen still decided to start her spritzer line for more money.”
Affleck’s past struggles with alcohol have been well-documented, and the visibility of Lopez’s alcohol brand reportedly added strain to their relationship, contributing to their separation.
