On the other hand, the insider said The Mother actress was devastated because the marriage was coming to an end.

"In a perfect world, Jen would like to make it work with Ben. It’s heartbreaking to her and she tried very hard to make it work."

"Ben needed new energy in his life," the mole squealed. "Ben feels like he’s been weighed down this year. He will always care for Jen, but he knows the marriage is done, and he wants to focus on himself right now."
