According to recent reports, Jennifer Lopez allegedly confronted Ben Affleck, telling him, “I’m the reason you became famous.” The remark was said to have been made during a private exchange, shedding light on growing tension between the pair.
Insiders claim Lopez’s statement was triggered by Affleck’s unease with her level of celebrity. Affleck has openly shared in the past that he often feels burdened by the intense public attention surrounding Lopez, admitting that the constant spotlight is difficult for him to handle.
The couple’s contrasting attitudes toward fame have long been a source of friction. While Affleck values his privacy and prefers a quieter lifestyle, Lopez views fame as an essential part of her identity and career.
Their relationship has not been without obstacles — from their high-profile split in 2004 to a recent divorce filing following two years of marriage. Despite these challenges, both have previously spoken about their deep respect for one another and the difficulty of balancing personal life with public scrutiny.
Although the authenticity of Lopez’s alleged remark remains unverified, it reflects the ongoing struggle between the two to reconcile their differing perspectives within a highly publicized relationship.
