Ben Affleck is facing a challenging phase amid several rumours about the end of his marriage with Jennifer Lopez.
The actor’s morale has been low due to the intense media scrutiny against both him and Lopez in recent months.
A few days ago, the Batman actor lost his composure and clashed with the paparazzi outside the Beverly Hills mansion where he lives with Lopez. They reportedly went there to collect their personal belongings while Lopez was vacationing in Italy.
An InTouch source close to Affleck said, “It’s no surprise he’s devastated. He’s on the verge of breaking down. People close to Ben are extremely worried about him because of everything that’s happened to him over the last few months.”

The source said, “He is going through a very bad time and when his condition becomes like this, his loved ones cannot protect themselves from anticipating the worst.”
Family has always been important to Affleck, who has been focusing on his kids lately. He has also received support from his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, who has offered help to both Affleck and Lopez.
“Jen always steps in when he’s in a situation like this,” the source said of Garner, who took Affleck to rehab when he was struggling in 2018.
“She has been visiting his house quite often to make sure he is okay, and that probably didn’t sit well with Jennifer Lopez, even though they are staying in different wings.”
