It quotes a J-Lo friend as saying she's "devastated".
Lopez and Affleck's publicists said the wedding was called off because of too much publicity.
But most media watchers aren't buying it. Nicknamed Bennifer for their combined star power, this couple has never wanted privacy before. They even recreated their engagement in a music video.
Todd Gold of People magazine says, “Given the attention Jennifer Lopez seems to crave and love it is ironic that they blame the media for canceling their wedding or postponing their wedding.”
Affleck and Lopez postponed their much-hyped wedding last week because they said they didn't want the day spoiled by excessive media attention that might have forced them to hire as many as three decoy brides for different sites.
Star magazine editor Bonnie Fuller told CBS News Early Show co-anchor Rene Syler, “I think it was the media frenzy, but like any normal bride-to-be, there were other things that were making Jennifer Lopez nervous. Apparently, there was a problem with her dress fitting, a problem with her mom's dress, a problem with the invitations, some family feuding going on. So I think that these other factors possibly contributed.”
Us Weekly magazine had reported that the vows and reception would occur at Sotto Il Monte, a private $29 million estate in the Montecito area, near Santa Barbara. Guests, including Matt Damon, Bruce Willis, Matthew Perry and Alec Baldwin, were set to be shuttled to the wedding from nearby resort hotels, the magazine said.
But late indications were that site had been changed. Previous rumors about the wedding have placed it in Kauai, Hawaii; Atlanta and Scotland. Affleck himself has teased reporters by saying: "It is in Namibia on Nov. 15. So you go ahead and fly on down, and we'll see you there."
The Star recently reported Lopez had been suffering premarital jitters.
If or when the wedding happens, it will be the third for Lopez, 33, and the first for Affleck, 31. The couple met while filming this summer's infamous bomb "Gigli."
