According to insiders who know the former on-and-off-again couple, the decision made by the dad-of-three wasn't necessarily all because of financial reasons, but emotional ones, as he wants to detach himself from his latest ex-wife for good.
"He's been desperate to move on," a source told the National Examiner. "At this point, all Ben wants is for J.Lo to be out of his hair."
While the decision to give the "Jenny From The Block" vocalist his share of their unlisted home might've set him free and made him feel better, sources are revealing that it rubbed her the wrong way and made her upset.
"J.Lo is bewildered," they added. "It stings that Ben's so eager to be rid of her that he's willing to write off millions."
