After reports of Lopez and Affleck living apart amid speculations of an “imminent” divorce, new details hint that the “Let’s Get Loud” singer is looking to put more distance between herself and the “Good Will Hunting” star.

An insider revealed to In Touch that Lopez is “pushing for a full-time move to New York,” where she once lived with ex-husband Marc Anthony, with whom she shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme.

According to the source, Lopez has had this move on her mind “even before things went totally south” with Affleck. Now, “she’s decided to go ahead” with the idea, given the current situation of her marriage.

Although it is unclear when the move to the Big Apple might happen, the source believes that Lopez will not completely cut ties with Los Angeles, where she currently resides.

Lopez seemingly hinted at the move when she took to her JLo Beauty Instagram account to inform fans that she was “traveling to New York.”

While she didn’t provide more information about her purpose there, she likely spent some time checking out potential places of residence.

Moving to New York City would most likely lead to Lopez’s twins, Max and Emme, relocating with her as the actress wouldn’t want to be far away from them.

According to the source, the relocation might be challenging at first, but they would all adjust since New York City offers the same things they enjoyed in L.A.

“There’s nothing to stop her from taking the kids and making a fresh start back in New York,” the insider added. “They’ve got plenty of schools back east, and she’s got a great social circle there.”

Moving to New York might also lead to a reunion between Lopez and her ex, Alex Rodriguez. The duo were in a relationship for five years before splitting in 2021, two years after Rodriguez had proposed to Lopez with a massive emerald-cut diamond ring worth more than $1 million.

According to the insider, Lopez is “starting to miss what she had with him,” and despite the former professional baseball shortstop being linked to Canadian fitness instructor Jaclyn Cordeiro, she allegedly still plans to stay in the picture.

The source said about Rodriguez and Lopez, “He’s got a girlfriend now, but J.Lo doesn’t intend to stay single long, and she and A-Rod do have unfinished business.”

They added about Rodriguez, “For all his faults they did have an intense connection, he was devastated when they split up. He insists he’s happier now without her but they have a lot of mutual friends that aren’t so convinced and he’s not married or engaged, so at this point it’s not beyond the realm that they could reconnect.”

“They seem to have spent a lot more time apart recently, with Ben even moving out of their shared home and back into his own place,” said Louella Alderson, a relationship expert.

Alderson also claimed that the trip allowed Lopez “some time and space to reflect on her marriage and what she wants for her future.”

After returning from the trip, Lopez was spotted visiting Affleck’s office. The pair have remained mum about their marriage woes despite mounting speculations.
