Jennifer Lopez has just offloaded her New York City penthouse, a property that had lingered on the market for seven years before finally selling for $23 million. This sale coincides with Ben Affleck’s recent real estate move—he’s snapped up a luxurious bachelor pad in Los Angeles for $20.5 million.
This new acquisition for Affleck comes amid the couple’s decision to list their jointly owned mega mansion for $68 million. Despite the substantial renovation costs they’ve sunk into the property, the high asking price could potentially result in a loss.
Amidst their real estate shuffle, J.Lo and Ben have been spending time apart, with J.Lo enjoying European vacations and the Hamptons, while Ben has been based in Los Angeles. Though the couple has not publicly addressed rumors about their relationship, a source close to them revealed to the Daily Mail that there might be hope for their marriage. According to the source, J.Lo and Ben are currently taking time to reassess their relationship. Even though they have divorce papers prepared, they are making an effort to revive their romance by reconnecting through personal letters, hoping to rediscover the spark that initially brought them together.
