The divorce speculation comes amid reports that the pair of have been 'living separately' and that Ben moved out of their $60 million L.A. home 'several weeks ago.

Also on Thursday, Ben's longtime pal, Jason Mewes, spoke up about the headline-making rumours that the actor is on the brink of divorce with Lopez after two years of marriage. 

Mewes told TMZ he does not 'believe' all the gossip that the Oscar winner and the On The Floor songstress will split.

He explained that after seeing how happy they were at their wedding in Georgia in 2022, he thinks they will be fine. 'I don't want to be sappy but it was very genuine,' he told the reporter while in a parking lot.

Jason added that after 20 years, Bennifer was clearly still truly in love: 'It seemed very sincere and real.'

But Jason also admitted that he has spoken to Ben - who hid his wedding band in LA - only once since his wedding but he would be 'shocked' if they ended their union.

However, Mewes did offer that Ben may be living in a new house away from Jennifer just to focus on his new movie, the sequel to The Accountant.

'He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream, and he's come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.'
