Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have settled their divorce, TMZ has learned, and in a month and a half they will officially call their marriage quits.
In a nutshell, each walks away with what they individually acquired during the marriage. The money Ben earned from his various movie projects is his, and the same goes for what J Lo earned during their 2-year marriage. Notably, Ben will keep his stake in his hugely successful production company, Artists Equity — which he created in 2022 — in which he partnered with Matt Damon.
Ben formed the company in November 2022, about 4 months after he married J Lo, and AE’s since churned out hit movies like “Air,” “Unstoppable,” “The Instigators,” “Small Things Like These” and “The Accountant 2.”
As for J Lo … she’s keeping her own major projects … during their marriage she worked on “Atlas,” “This Is Me… Now,” “The Mother,” “Shotgun Wedding” and “Marry Me.”
They also reached an agreement on the $61 million house they bought, but the terms are confidential. It’s on the market, but so far, no takers.
TMZ broke the story, Ben and Jen did NOT have a prenup. Typically, that would mean they would put everything in a pot that they acquired during the marriage and divide it 50/50. But the settlement — mediated by disso queen Laura Wasser — is effectively like a prenup.
The settlement also reveals J Lo is dropping Affleck as a last name and reverting to Jennifer Lynn Lopez.
TMZ broke the story, J Lo filed for divorce from Ben back in August … but now it looks like things are settled just 5 months later.
The divorce will be officially finalized Feb. 20 … exactly 6 months after J Lo pulled the plug.
