Jennifer Lopez seems to be living full-time in the $68M Bel-Air mansion she bought with ex Ben Affleck

Jennifer Lopez gave fans a peek into her lavish $68 million Bel-Air mansion, sharing a series of photos from her opulent dressing room. The star, known for her glamorous lifestyle and iconic Hollywood moments, stood in her neutral decorated space, which features cozy chairs and sketches of her most memorable red carpet outfits, including one of her Met Gala looks. 

The Bel-Air home, which Lopez previously shared with her husband, Ben Affleck, is a sprawling estate featuring 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a 12-car garage, and even a 5,000-square-foot guest penthouse. The property also boasts a caretaker house, a two-bedroom guard house, a stunning pool, and an indoor sports complex.  

Despite listing the home for sale in spring 2024, Lopez still seems to reside there full-time. The former couple purchased the property in May 2023. Still, her search for a fresh start has continued, especially after Ben bought a $20 million home in Pacific Palisades, near his children and ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.  

After Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, sources close to her clarified that some of the extravagant acquisitions and events during her two-year marriage to Ben were not her doing, despite her diva image. According to an insider, the Beverly Hills mansion that Ben and JLo owned was not purchased by mutual agreement.

"The $68 million mansion was Ben's idea and a major compromise for her," the source told People. "She agreed to it because of its spacious layout, accommodating both their families, a gym and a pickleball court, office space, plus it has two private entrances," the source adds.

Moving On  

Lopez has been actively house-hunting in Los Angeles, reportedly touring a Beverly Hills mansion described as "truly exceptional" and ideal for those seeking privacy. According to an insider, the singer has also explored properties yet to be officially on the market, signaling her commitment to finding the perfect place.

"Jennifer is trying to find a new home to start fresh," a source revealed to People. "She always has [a] good attitude even when things are not perfect."  

A New Chapter 

 Lopez, who released her album "This Is Me...Now," alongside revealing visuals, continues to balance her career and personal life with resilience. Most recently, the 55-year-old superstar took center stage at "The 1001 Seasons of ELIE SAAB," leaving behind the thoughts of her recent divorce from Ben Affleck.

Lopez commanded the stage with her signature flair, wearing a shimmering, low-cut silver leotard paired with tights and high-heeled boots. A video shared on Instagram captured her energetic performance, which featured twerking and powerful vocals that sent the crowd into a frenzy. Her long, flowing hair and dynamic choreography with her backup dancers contributed to the high-energy spectacle.

Jennifer's performance comes months after she canceled her tour. In an interview with The Graham Norton Show, she reflected on her 'THIS IS ME…LIVE' canceled tour. "I decided to take summer off and be home with the kids, and it was the best thing I think I've ever done. It's not like me to do that," she said.

The star, who recently had a special outing with Emme, said she likes to apologize to fans and recalled when she encountered a fan the day before who had tickets to the show. "This was actually very touching," she shared. "Coming out of the hotel yesterday, [a fan] was like 'I had tickets to go see you,' and I was like, 'I'm so sorry,' and he was like 'Don't say sorry, we love you.' I started crying right away," she shared.
