Jennifer Lopez is ‘over’ trying to salvage doomed marriage to ‘grumpy’ Ben Affleck – as she’s already planning her next steps including bringing back her tour in 2025

Jennifer Lopez is ‘over it’ and is trying to make her marriage to Ben Affleck work, a source tells DailyMail.com.

“Jenny has had enough and she really tried, but she can’t do anymore. It’s not getting better, it’s worse,” a music industry source told DailyMail.com.

The main reason she left her husband was because he was always “grumpy and negative,” like Sesame Street’s Oscar The Grouch, the source added.

The 54-year-old singer is sad about the end of her marriage, but “is trying to make the best of it by exercising, spending time with her twins Max and Emme and making new plans for 2025.”

One of those new plans is to resume her This Is Me… Live tour for the summer of 2025, when she turns 56 years old. She canceled the 2024 tour, which was set to kick off in July, to “think about herself.”

“She’s excited to go on tour next year when her personal life is in calmer territory and she can connect with her fans. She will take her tribe and make the best of it,” the source said.

Lopez is also “shocked” by the bad press she is receiving, which she says is not fair.

“If people could see what she really went through, they would be easier on her,” the source said.

‘Ben is a great guy, but he can be grumpy and a downer. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn’t smile. If they saw what it really was like, they wouldn’t attack her,” Jennifer’s friend said.

‘He smokes and swears and often seems irritated. Great director and actor, but he doesn’t get much laughs, you know?’ said the source. “But he’s a great dad.”

Lopez plans to continue.

‘She’s really not used to this kind of bad feedback, but she’ll get over it. She will march on,” the friend said.

‘Jennifer is a very smart and strong woman and she will bounce back, she always does!’

These days, she leans on her close friends.

One of these is stylist Shawn Barton, whose nickname is Beezy. Another is singing coach Stevie Mackey.

There are many reports that Ben and Jennifer will announce their divorce soon and plan to do so on Friday, which is the norm among celebrities breaking up.

When the source was asked about this, they offered, “I think they wanted to wait until all the kids are out of school and done with school plans and stuff before making their big announcement. They put the kids first.”

She has Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

And Ben has Violet, Seraphina and Samuel with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

And as for how Jennifer and Ben are interacting these days, the insider said they are “cordial” with each other.

So what happened to the once jovial Ben who was always smiling at fans and making out with Jennifer in public?

The source points out the pressure in Ben’s career.

“He’s filming Accounting 2 right now and the hours are very long, he’s working hard on it and it’s a lot to juggle getting married and kids,” the source said. “So sometimes he’s not in the best mood.”

Meanwhile, Lopez cleared her schedule this summer to give herself some time off to reexamine her life.

“She lives alone and not with Ben, I think everyone knows that already, so that’s a big change for her and the kids,” the friend said. Ben moved into a $100,000-a-month rental near Garner months ago.

“Of course Jenny is sad, she loves Ben, but they’re just too different, there’s no give and take, there was no mixing, they’re just on different tracks.”

The source added that Jennifer gave it her all: “She really tried her best to make it work, but it just didn’t work.

“She put a lot of time and energy into it, and I think he did the same. There is no one to blame here. It just wasn’t in the cards. It’s very difficult for two big stars to keep a marriage going; you have to give in, and in this case neither of us gave in.”

But instead of crying at home, Jennifer makes plans for a better life.

‘She is looking at scripts and looking forward to 2025. After the success of Atlas, she is getting a lot of calls for films, everyone wants to work with her. She’s thrilled that she’s still on the A-list in her fifties!’

She has earned a lot of respect.

This week, Atlas composer Andrew Lockington said he was “blown away” by Lopez’s creativity and work ethic.

She not only played the lead role in the film but also served as a filmmaker and producer during post-production, he added.

He also said she was in the editing room and involved in the music. She also went to the screenings to see what the audience thought.

And he noted that he can’t believe how hard she works, even with “all the rumors” swirling about her personal life: “I can’t imagine what it would be like to be under such a microscope in her life .’
