Lopez has seemingly given up on saving her marriage to Affleck and is reportedly ready to move on.

A source recently revealed to the Daily Mail that the "Atlas" star is tired of trying to make things work with her husband and now sees that there is nothing "more" she can do to get their marriage back on track.

The source said, "Jenny has had enough and she really tried but she can do no more, it's not getting any better, it's worse."

They further claimed that the primary reason why Lopez decided to walk away from Affleck was because he was constantly "grumpy and negative."

The insider also shared that Lopez and Affleck "really tried hard" to make their marriage work to no end.

The insider told the news outlet that Lopez was "shocked" by the negative press she had received regarding the rumored end of their marriage.

The singer reportedly believes that the bad press is not fair and that if people truly understood what she's been through, they would "be easier on her."

"Ben is a great guy but he can be grumpy and a downer. I think the world saw that in photos like when they were at the Grammys last year; he wouldn't smile," the source stated. "If they saw how it really was, they would not attack her. He chain smokes and cusses and seems irritated a lot of the time. Great director and actor, but not a lot of laughs with him, you know?"

The insider also said that despite the bad press about her, Lopez "will get over it" and "march on" with her life and future.
