The Jen and Zac Affleck divorce is getting very public, very fast. After Zac said in a TikTok that he learned about the filing“through the news”and would remain Jen’s“biggest fan,”the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star responded with a 2022 throwback video. In it, Zac tells her, two weeks postpartum, that her breasts are“sagging all over”and she shouldn’t post the footage. Jen captioned it simply:“He was never my biggest supporter.”
She followed up with a clip of Zac walking away angrily during a dispute over household chores. Zac replied in the comments that he was“absolutely shocked”he had said that and that he has tried to learn and grow. The couple shares three children, Nora, Lucas and Penelope, and Jen is pregnant with their fourth. Jen filed Tuesday in Utah County District Court along with a parenting plan.
It’s the latest reality TV split playing out entirely on social media, and it’s raising real questions about postpartum body criticism and how much of a divorce should be public. Where do you stand: should the receipts stay offline, or does posting them count as speaking your truth?
