Jennifer Lopez<\/strong> is still obsessed with getting ex-husband Ben Affleck<\/strong> back \u2014 over a year after he filed for divorce and ran for the hills, according to sources.<\/p>\n Insiders say she\u2019s even turning to witchcraft and astrology in a last-ditch attempt to bring them back together again.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s refusing to accept that this is the end, she\u2019s convinced that there is more to their story and will not let go,\u201d says an insider.<\/p>\n The Hustlers<\/em> star, 56, is also spending a fortune on all sorts of woo-woo stuff like tarot readings, chakra alignments and space clearing. According to a former makeup artist, J.Lo was once reportedly said<\/a> to have a Santeria practitioner named Merle Gonzalez<\/strong>, who conducts voodoo rituals on her behalf.<\/p>\n \u201cAs if burning sage and chanting under the new moon will bring Ben running back.\u201d says the source.<\/p>\n Another sign Jenny is not moving on from the Ben Block: She is still living in the $68 million mansion they shared, over a year after they put it on the market, according to Daily Mail<\/em><\/a>. Experts say they need to slash the price by at least 15 percent if they\u2019re really serious about selling.<\/p>\n While Ben would happily agree to a reduction because he can\u2019t wait to move on with his life, J.Lo reportedly refuses.<\/p>\n \u201cLiving in the house they bought together is so unhealthy,\u201d says the source. \u201cOne thing about Jennifer is she\u2019s incredibly stubborn. When she\u2019s convinced of something she won\u2019t quit. It\u2019s one of the secrets of her massive success and a great trait in that sense, but it\u2019s not a positive thing when it comes to her love life \u2014 it\u2019s keeping her stuck.\u201d<\/p>\n Insiders point to other incidents as evidence she\u2019s hoping to get Ben back by clinging to the past, like when she took Ben\u2019s 13-year-old son, Samuel<\/strong> \u2014 her former stepson \u2014 on a shopping spree in Beverly Hills while dressed for the club in a crop top and low-waisted black pants, per Daily Mail<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n The insider called that stunt \u201ccringey,\u201d adding, \u201cThat was so bizarre and such an obvious attempt to get Ben\u2019s attention. It got his attention all right, but not in a good way.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/staging.nationalenquirer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/MEGA1297156_090-scaled.jpg\")
