J-Lo's no cheating clause

Jennifer Lopez has insisted on a 'no-cheating' prenuptial agreement with fiancè Ben Affleck after he spent a night with strippers.

The singer and actress will go through with her wedding to Affleck but only after the actor agreed that if he is unfaithful she is entitled to go after half his money.

A source close to Miss Lopez said last night: 'The prenuptial agreement is to protect both their assets and says that if they do split they keep their own money, except if Ben cheats. Then the prenuptial becomes void.

'That means that the divorce will be done the normal Californian way - with Jennifer being entitled to up to half of Ben's earnings.

'She is not after Ben's money, she has plenty of her own. But what she does want is for Ben to give her some guarantee that he will never cheat again.

'By doing it this way she can save face by taking matters into her own hands and laying down the law. It's a smart way for her to take control and not look like the woman scorned.'

Affleck, 30, was accused of spending a night with strippers last month while filming in Canada - only a week after spending £1million on a surprise birthday party for Miss Lopez, 33.

The furious actress told him their relationship was over and took off her £1million diamond engagement ring.

However, Affleck convinced her he was desperate to marry her and the wedding is expected to take place this weekend in Santa Barbara, California.

Sources say Affleck accepted the prenuptial agreement because he was determined not to lose Miss Lopez.

'Ben got scared when he thought it was over,' Miss Lopez's friend said. 'He's told her he will never set foot in a strip club and will never again attend parties that might turn wild without her.

'Jen had two choices - either swallow her pride and try to patch things up with the man she loves, or call off the wedding and lose Ben for ever.

'In the end she decided that spending the rest of her life with Ben was the most important thing to her.'
