Ben Affleck is said to hate it when his wife, Jennifer Lopez, promotes her booze brand because he knows how close they came to “ruining his life.”
After Delola, her new alcoholic drink, came out, many of JLo’s fans took to social media to make fun of her for it, especially since she doesn’t drink.
Others also said mean things about her while bringing up the fact that the Air Chief is an alcoholic who has been in and out of rehab over the years.
“A lot of people think this is in very bad taste,” a source told Heat Magazine. “Ben’s trying hard to stay sober and has difficult days like every recovering alcoholic.”
“He’d rather not have any alcohol in the house at all, but he has to watch Jen work on this job. Everything about it seems wrong,” the source said.
The star of “Shotgun Wedding” even said that the design of her drink, which is based on the Italian coast, was inspired by her husband. “On the actual bottle, I put two lions – Ben and I are both Leos,” she said.
“She’s just putting her name on a product that can sell, and she doesn’t see a problem with it,” a source said of how Lopez hasn’t been bothered by the criticism.
“So far, Ben has shown a lot of willpower, but he can’t help but feel let down when he sees his wife promoting something that almost ruined his life,” the insider said of Affleck.
