Jennifer Lopez slams ‘negativity’ amid Ben Affleck split rumors

J.Lo has had enough.

Jennifer Lopez released a message via her On the JLo newsletter and referenced the “negativity” about her in the press amid rumors that her marriage to Ben Affleck is on the rocks.

The actress and singer, 54, shared the message while celebrating her movie “Atlas” being the No. 1 film on Netflix for two weeks in a row.

“Hi everybody, I just found out some great news and it’s all because of YOU!! ATLAS is #1 worldwide again this week!!! Thank you all so much!!!” Lopez wrote.

“It may seem like there’s a lot of negativity out in the world right now … but don’t let the voices of a few drown out that there is soooo much love out there,” she added. “Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I love you all so much.”

Lopez is the lead star and an executive producer on “Atlas.”

The sci-fi film, directed by Brad Peyton, follows a counterterrorism analyst (played by Lopez) who has to use artificial intelligence after failing to capture a rogue robot. Simu Liu, Sterling K. Brown, Mark Strong and Lana Parrilla also star in the movie.

While Lopez has been busy promoting “Atlas,” she hasn’t been able to escape the negative rumors about her marriage to Affleck, 51.

After the pair — who got married in 2022 — were not seen together for 47 days, reports came out that claimed they were experiencing major marital issues and are heading toward divorce.

Page Six report from May 20 claimed that Affleck has “come to his senses” about the marriage.

“If there was a way to divorce on grounds of temporary insanity, he would,” the insider alleged about the “Argo” director. “He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream, and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.”

After the rumors surfaced, Bennifer made it a point to step out together several times, including when they went to an event for one of their kids in Los Angeles on May 16.

However, Affleck did not join his wife for the “Atlas” premiere in LA on May 20.

Lopez arrived at the red carpet event all on her own, while Affleck was reportedly busy filming “The Accountant 2.”

On May 22, Lopez was asked by a reporter about the “truth” of her relationship with Affleck at a press conference for “Atlas” in Mexico City.

“Is your divorce with Ben Affleck real? These rumors?” the reporter asked.

Liu, 35, defended his co-star and shut the question down, while Lopez gave a brief but brutal response: “You know better than that.”

According to TMZ, the press was warned that “all questions” about Lopez and Affleck were prohibited before the press conference, but the reporter asked about their relationship anyway.

As the split rumors have continued to mount, Lopez announced Friday that she was canceling her This Is Me… Live tour to spend time with her loved ones.

“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” she wrote in her newsletter. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.”

The “Hustlers” actress continued: “I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time …”

Lopez was supposed to be on tour from June to August to support her latest album, “This Is Me … Now,” which has been considered a flop.

The pair have since attended his daughter Violet’s graduation party and his son Samuel’s basketball game together.
