What did we know about this divorce?

It has been reported that Jennifer and Ben did not establish a pre-nup agreement, indicating that all income generated over the last two years will be classified as community property in the event of their divorce.

Jennifer filed “pro per,” which means that she did it by herself and didn’t engage the services of an attorney.

The financial settlements remain unresolved, suggesting that the former couple may face an extended divorce dispute regarding their financial matters.
