Despite tying the knot in a whirlwind romance, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck find themselves revisiting a chapter of their past that refuses to close. The glamorous duo once shared a dream home – a sprawling $68 million mansion boasting 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms, perfect for their blended family. Yet, even after their divorce, this property remains a stubborn remnant of their previous life together.
Realtor reports reveal the couple's ongoing struggle to offload the opulent estate, even after reducing the price to $52 million. The latest twist? They’ve pulled the listing from the market once more, hinting at the emotional and financial complexities tied to this unsold gem.
“Jennifer thinks they can get more money for the home, so she wants to keep the price as is. But the real estate market is not there and it’s not selling,” insiders shared with Us Weekly.
Earlier in 2025, a potential buyer seemed poised to take the mansion off their hands, but fate intervened with a family tragedy, causing the deal to fall through. This setback further complicates the duo's attempts to finalize this chapter of their lives.
Fans of the couple will recall their storied history. Lopez and Affleck first crossed paths on the set of "Gigli," sparking a romance that led to an engagement by 2002. Yet, by 2004, their relationship had fizzled out. Fast forward to 2021, and the pair rekindled their romance, leading to a lavish wedding the following year. Sadly, by 2024, divorce papers had been filed, and their union officially ended in 2025.
The unsold mansion has reportedly stirred tensions between the co-parents. Rumor has it that Lopez was never a fan of the house – "She never wanted the house. He did. Now she’s stuck with it," revealed Rob Shuter on #ShuterScoop. "Jen hated it from day one. It was all Ben’s idea. She thought it was excessive – he thought it was private."
For now, Lopez and Affleck remain tethered by this grand piece of real estate, a reminder of their once-shared dreams and the complexities of moving on. Will the mansion find a buyer, or will it continue to haunt the Hollywood pair? Only time will tell.
