Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are officially ex-husband and ex-wife. After months of a ‘novel’ that seemed to never end, the verdict has arrived five months after the actress filed for the dissolution of her brief marriage to the actor.
According to information from TMZ, the divorce process has been easy and has been carried out amicably. Although they did not have a prenuptial agreement and should have split the profits earned during their union 50/50, the former couple has signed the following financial agreement thanks to the intervention of Hollywood's most famous divorce attorney, Laura Wasser.
How was the economic agreement that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck reached in their divorce?
According to the mentioned source, Lopez and Affleck will each retain the benefits they individually acquired in various projects during the two years they were married, and neither will pay spousal support to the other.
In this way, Ben will maintain his participation in his successful production company, Artists Equity, which he created in 2022 and partnered with Matt Damon. The actor founded the company in November 2022, approximately four months after marrying the singer, and since then Artists Equity has produced successful films such as Air, Unstoppable, The Instigators, Small Things Like These, and The Accountant 2.
On the other hand, JLo will keep what she earned during the projects she starred in during her marriage, including Atlas, This Is Me... Now, The Mother, Shotgun Wedding, and Marry Me. The accumulated wealth of the actors during this time amounts to 550 million dollars, of which 400 million belong to the queen of the Bronx.
The former couple also reached an agreement regarding the $61 million Beverly Hills mansion they bought together, although the terms have not been disclosed to the press. The property, which was supposed to be their dream home, has not yet found a buyer and it is unclear how the assets will be divided. In addition, Jennifer plans to officially remove the Affleck surname once the divorce is finalized on February 20th.
