They source explained, “The marriage was incredibly overwhelming – J.Lo lives a very glam lifestyle, and he was often faced with temptation.”
The Batman actor, who has battled alcohol for years, found himself on the verge of “risking his sobriety in that environment” after The Boy Next Door alum launched her alcohol line.
According to RadarOnline, Affleck “had to leave to avoid his worst nightmare- a relapse.”

During a confessional, the On the Floor singer revealed that she doesn’t “get s---faced and enjoys the occasional cocktail” after being sober for years.
