Ben Affleck reportedly does not approve of wife Jennifer Lopez's new alcohol brand after his past addiction
Ben Affleck reportedly hates seeing his wife Jennifer Lopez promoting her alcohol brand knowing full well how they nearly "ruined his life."
Following the launch of her alcohol drink, Delola, many JLo fans took to social media to call the singer-actor out over her new venture especially because she’s a non-drinker.
Others also bashed her while pointing out the Air director’s struggle with being an alcoholic and how he has been in an out of rehab over the years.
“A lot of people think this is in very bad taste,” an insider
told Heat Magazine. “Ben’s trying hard to stay sober and has difficult days
like every recovering alcoholic.”
“He would prefer if booze
wasn’t in the house at all, but has to sit back and watch Jen work on this
project. The whole thing feels inappropriate,” the insider added.
The
Shotgun Wedding star even revealed that the design of her Italian
coast-inspired beverage was inspired by her husband, saying, “On the actual
bottle, I put two lions – Ben and I are both Leos.”
“She’s just
putting her name to a marketable product – she sees no issue with it,” the
insider spoke of how Lopez has been unaffected by the criticism.
As
for Affleck, the insider said, “So far, Ben’s shown remarkable willpower,
but he can’t help but feel let down, watching his wife promoting something
that nearly ruined his life.”
