As per the insider who spoke to the publication Affleck has been dissatisfied with their conflicting schedules . Lopez informed fans on Friday that she would be canceling her next tour so that she could spend more time with her children. An informant claimed that “Ben feels Jen needs to overhaul her career and have a better team behind her. He has butted heads with some members for a while now and it’s caused tension behind the scenes. He just wants what’s best for her and feels she’s doing a lot of mediocre projects and is surrounded by yes people who are also sometimes making decisions for her. Jen is also often doing 50 things at once. Ben is not working as much by choice and she’s overworking – so their priorities are different. Even though she has been dedicated to her marriage and kids, she’s very busy.”

An insider told Entertainment Tonight that Lopez ‘has been experiencing ups and downs while processing everything’ related to her professional and personal life. The source stated, “Jen and Ben are continuing to take space from each other. They’ve been having issues for a few months and trying to figure things out on their own. Jen has been having a hard time dealing with the general stress of life as well as in her career. She has been experiencing ups and downs while processing everything. She has been throwing herself into work, which has always been an outlet for her to stay busy and distracted.”
According to the New York Post , Lopez’s $90 million Las Vegas residency is supposedly in jeopardy as a result of her new album’s and tour’s dismal sales. This might be the source of her worry. Executives at MGM Grand are rethinking the singer’s $1 million per performance arrangement after her This is Me… Now tour’s disappointing ticket sales.
