Ben Affleck secured your new home at the same time Jennifer Lopez celebrated a milestone… because he officially snapped up his lavish mansion as J Lo blew out her candles.
TMZ confirmed that Ben received his own little gift on the same day Lopez turned 55: the closing of escrow on his $20 million Los Angeles mansion.
Worth noting… Jennifer also made her own real estate move on her birthday, finalizing the sale of her New York City apartment on the same day — selling her four-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom duplex in the Big Apple for $23 million after years of searching for a buyer.
She also had time to post a very tasty photo to quench her thirst on her 55th birthday… so the woman is a master of multitasking.
TMZ broke the story… BA bought the five-bedroom, six-bathroom Pacific Palisades home, complete with an office, walk-in closets, media room, powder room and guest house, for $20.5 million — a move that makes Lopez’s divorce seemingly inevitable.
There is one deal for the couple still pending…the couple’s $68 million mansion. It is still in the market — and at this point, the couple are clearly trying to get rid of it because the price means they’ll barely break even.
Divorce rumors first started swirling in May… and as we reported in early June, it looked like the couple was headed for splitsville before J Lo fled to Europe for a vacation with friends.
