Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, two Hollywood icons, found themselves in a less-than-ideal situation after purchasing a lavish mansion in Beverly Hills in 2023. The sprawling property, boasting an impressive 38,000 square feet, 12 bedrooms, and 24 bathrooms, seemed like the ultimate dream home on paper. However, sources close to the couple revealed to Daily Mail that the reality was far from what they had envisioned.
According to insiders, the mansion’s vast size and open layout left the pair feeling uneasy and disconnected from the space they called home. Despite having round-the-clock security, Ben and Jennifer, along with their children, never quite settled into the mansion and failed to establish a sense of belonging within its walls.
“It was too big, and the openness made them feel unsafe at times,” one source disclosed. “Although they have around-the-clock security, something just didn’t feel right.”
The disparity in opinion between the two stars became evident during their rocky relationship, with Ben reportedly having more reservations about the mansion compared to Jennifer. The exorbitant cost of maintaining the property only added to their growing dissatisfaction.
“The amount of money it costs just in utilities for that home was astronomical,” a tipster revealed. Ultimately, the couple made the difficult decision to part ways with the mansion, acknowledging that it simply wasn’t the right fit for them.
While their stay at the Beverly Hills mansion may not have been as idyllic as they had hoped, one thing is for certain – Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are no strangers to making bold moves, both on and off the silver screen.
