Ben Affleck did tell us in Jennifer Lopez’s documentary “Greatest Love Story Never Told” that marriage with the “Hypnotico” hitmaker required compromises.
In fact the lack of compromise made the couple break up their previous engagement a mere three days before they were due to be married nearly two decades ago.
Now, they’ve reinvigorated their love, finally managed to walk down the aisle this time, and are learning to live together as a couple. It’s not always easy for Affleck, and he’s sorta kinda complained about it.
Ben Affleck Reportedly Compromised On the Price of Their Beverly Hills Mansion To Suit Jennifer Lopez’s Elegant Taste
Okay, were you curious to know what the “Batman” star meant when he said that he’s learned to compromise better? So were we.
Of course we already knew that he was a “reluctant participant” in Lopez’s film and had to adjust to the idea of getting his love letters read by a bunch of people, as well as it inspiring Lopez’s latest album “This Is Me… Now.” So uh… what else?
Well, an insider just disclosed that Affleck originally meant to spend $20 million on the new home they’re sharing together, but ended up shelling out $60 million for the 12-bedroom 24-bathroom house.
“Ben was thinking more along the lines of $20 million for the house. But Jen overruled him,” the insider claimed, revealing that their bills are starting to pile up and stress Affleck out. “Their bills are through the roof. It’s all eating away at their bank accounts… The pressure to make money keeps intensifying.”
Instead of going for the $20 million, the couple ended up taking a mortgage of $20 million to be able to afford the luxurious mansion.
In case you’re wondering if it’s worth the money, just know that it also comes with a 12-car garage, a basketball court, a gym, a sports lounge and bar, a two-bedroom guardhouse, a theater, a wine room, and more, per KTLA.
I’d like to see Barbie’s dreamhouse top that (wait a minute, is Barbie’s dreamhouse the one with the endless wardrobe?)
Speaking of the pressure to make money, Lopez apparently sweated it out sponsoring her own film “Greatest Love Story Never Told,” especially after she received the news that one financial broker dropped out.
