Ben Affleck Plans Big Party to Blow Off Steam Amid Marital Speculations
For too long, Ben Affleck has been facing speculations, rumors, and questions over his marriage with Jennifer Lopez as the pair navigated marital woes. Amid this, sources say the Oscar winner is planning to host a big party to relieve the stress from the non-stop prying into his private life.
“From his point of view, this would just be a way to show some appreciation to his friends that have supported him through a really tough time,” an insider told In Touch.
The source continued, “He hasn’t been himself these past few months. He’s been so consumed with this break-up, and even before that, he went M.I.A. because he was in his bubble with J. Lo. He regrets that and wants to make it up to his friends, and he wants to cut loose and have some fun. He’s been really struggling, and he needs to have some fun and just relax.”
Interestingly, the locations under consideration for the bash are places where the couple once spent their good days. “He’s talking about arranging a big blowout at his place in Georgia, which is pretty ironic since that’s where he and J. Lo had their big wedding,” the source revealed. “There’s also some talk of doing it in Las Vegas, where they legally got married because he still loves to play poker and a lot of his friends do too.”
The party would be a significant gesture for Affleck, who has been dealing with immense personal turmoil. Hosting an event in locations tied to his marriage with Lopez could be seen as an effort to reclaim and redefine those spaces in a positive light.
Affleck’s plans highlight his desire to reconnect with friends and unwind, aiming to move past the intense scrutiny and enjoy some much-needed relaxation. For the actor, this party is more than just a celebration; it’s a step toward healing and regaining his sense of self amid a challenging period in his life.
