Jennifer Lopez Holds Onto $68M Mansion Amid Divorce Drama With Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez's Luxurious Living Situation

Jennifer Lopez is still calling the shots from within her sprawling $68 million Bel-Air estate, the same luxurious pad she once shared with her ex-husband, Ben Affleck. Despite their divorce being finalized in January 2025, Lopez seems quite comfortable staying put.

On September 11, the superstar stirred up some intrigue by posting sultry snapshots on Instagram, seemingly taken from the mansion's posh dressing room. The photos have fans and followers buzzing about why she's yet to move on from this piece of real estate history she shared with Affleck.

"Jennifer is staying there because she still owns it so why not?" a source revealed to Daily Mail, adding that her new digs in Hidden Hills aren't quite ready for move-in thanks to ongoing renovations.

The New Hidden Hills Haven

Lopez's new property in Hidden Hills, which she reportedly snagged back in March, is a gated 8,600-square-foot beauty nestled on two acres. This future home promises an array of luxury amenities, from a wet bar and home theater to a massage room, making it worth the wait.

Meanwhile, the Bel-Air estate, featuring a staggering 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms, has been a bit of a real estate hot potato, bouncing on and off the market since its public debut in July 2024. Despite efforts to sell, the estate remains unsold, adding a layer of complexity to Lopez and Affleck's post-divorce dealings.

Price Tag Tussle: To Lower or Not?

There's a bit of a tug-of-war going on behind the scenes as Affleck, 53, is reportedly eager to cut the price and move on, while Lopez is in no rush to reduce the hefty tag. As insiders spilled to TMZ, the ex-couple had previously trimmed the price to $59.5 million before pulling it from the market in May.

Real estate experts are whispering that a further 15 percent price drop might be necessary to finally seal the deal. "They overpaid," another source told TMZ, reflecting on their initial purchase of the estate for $60,850,000 back in May 2023. As the drama unfolds, all eyes are on this celebrity real estate saga to see who will make the next move.
