Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are heading for divorce, with their final paperwork complete but not yet submitted, sources have confirmed to DailyMail.com. The high-profile couple's split comes after a turbulent period marked by intense media scrutiny and personal disagreements.

The latest twist in their story unfolded on July 24, coinciding with Lopez’s 55th birthday. On this date, Affleck made headlines for purchasing a new $20.

5 million bachelor pad in Pacific Palisades, an action that friends of Lopez reportedly viewed as a significant emotional blow. They claimed that Affleck’s sudden move was perceived as a direct and painful message to Lopez on her special day.

Adding to the drama, the couple recently listed their Beverly Hills mansion for $68 million. This sale, coupled with Lopez's own real estate move—finalizing the sale of her four-bedroom New York City penthouse for $23 million—further indicates the couple’s intent to separate their lives both personally and financially.

Sources close to the pair reveal that while the divorce documents have been finalized, they are waiting for an appropriate moment to submit them. At that time, Affleck and Lopez are expected to release a joint statement acknowledging their efforts to make the relationship work, but ultimately recognizing that their differences were irreconcilable.
