There’s potentially a lot of money at stake in Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s divorce.

TMZ reported on Tuesday that the former couple didn’t sign a prenup ahead of their wedding two years ago.

Although Lopez’s divorce filing didn’t specify if any agreement was in place, sources told the outlet that no such document exists.

Without the legal doc in place to protect both parties’ assets, that leaves any income or property accrued during their marriage up as “community property”

— meaning both spouses can be viewed as equal owners of property, income or debt regardless of who purchased or earned it.

In Lopez’s case, she starred in and produced several movies during the brief course of their marriage including “Shotgun Wedding,” “The Mother,” ‘This Is Me … Now’ and “Atlas.”

Not to mention, the 55-year-old launched her ready-made cocktail brand, Delola, last year, pushing her net worth to a reported $400 million as of 2024.

Most recently, Affleck wrapped production on “The Accountant 2.” The 52-year-old also starred in “Air” and “Hypnotic” and produced “The Instigators” during their marriage. His net worth is reportedly lower than Lopez’s at $150 million.

According to her filing, Lopez waived spousal support and has asked the judge to deny any spousal support claims from Affleck.

The singer filed for divorce on the same day of the couple’s second wedding anniversary. They were married in a Georgia wedding ceremony in 2022 just one month after they eloped in Vegas.

Lopez filed on her own without the help of an attorney, marking her fourth divorce and Affleck’s second.

Rumors first erupted of the couple’s looming end in May after Lopez notably hit the Met Gala red carpet alone in May.



Affleck then opted out of other appearances with his estranged wife over the summer, including joining her at the “Atlas” premieres later that month.

Sources close to the couple previously told Page Six at the time that the “Air” star had “come to his senses” on his “fever dream” marriage to the pop star and was looking to end things.

The estranged pair put their $60 million marital mansion up for sale in July. Affleck recently purchased another massive mansion in the Pacific Palisades for $20.5 million as Lopez continues the search for a new home.
The news of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck not having a prenup before their marriage has caused quite a stir in the celebrity world. With their combined net worth in the hundreds of millions, the lack of a prenuptial agreement could potentially lead to a costly divorce settlement. Despite both parties being successful in their respective careers, it seems that Lopez has significantly more assets compared to Affleck. With hits like “Shotgun Wedding” and her successful cocktail brand Delola, Lopez’s net worth has soared to an impressive $400 million. On the other hand, Affleck’s net worth is reported to be at $150 million, considerably less than his ex-wife’s. It is interesting to note that Lopez waived spousal support in her divorce filing and has requested the judge to deny any claims from Affleck. This shows a level of independence and financial stability on Lopez’s part. The couple’s decision to end their marriage after just two years has been the subject of much speculation. Reports of Affleck coming to his senses and wanting to put an end to the marriage have surfaced, adding more drama to the already high-profile split. As Lopez and Affleck navigate their way through the divorce proceedings, it will be interesting to see how their assets are divided and what the final settlement will entail.
