According to sources close to the couple, the incident occurred in their home office during a heated discussion. Jennifer, who is often seen as the epitome of grace and control, apparently lost her temper and, in a moment of frustration, broke a work table. Ben Affleck, who was present, attempted to calm her down but was unable to soothe her nerves in the heat of the moment.

Jennifer is usually very calm and collected, but something must have really gotten under her skin,” an insider revealed. “Ben tried to calm her down, but she was too upset.”
