Jen Affleck Says Bitcoin Loss of More Than $100,000 Broke Her Trust

Jen said she became suspicious when Zac was not being honest about their finances and checked their shared account. She recalled finding more than $100,000 gone. According to her account, Zac admitted investing the money in cryptocurrency and losing it. He told her he had not disclosed the loss because he thought she would divorce him if she found out. Jen said she responded that she was done and would divorce him.

She described the loss as part of a wider pattern, alleging that Zac had gambled away their money multiple times through online poker and cryptocurrency investments. Jen said the repeated incidents left her feeling betrayed, regretful, disappointed and hopeless. She was pregnant with their fourth child, and the couple had already separated and reconciled before. She has said she had told Zac more than once that she wanted to end the relationship, but struggled with the decision because of the pregnancy and concern for their children.

Zac addressed the marriage publicly in an Instagram Story on November 11, saying he understood why some moments were difficult for viewers and that they were difficult for him, too. He acknowledged that his words and actions were unacceptable and had hurt people he cared about. He said he regretted the way he had affected Jen and offered no excuse for failing to show her kindness, respect and compassion.

Jen later shared old footage that challenged Zac’s description of himself as her biggest supporter. One clip showed him criticizing her appearance two weeks after she gave birth; another showed the couple arguing about household chores and laundry. Zac called his comments about her postpartum body “Obviously horrible and should have never been said.” Jen and Zac married in 2019. She is now preparing for their fourth child while facing the transition to co-parenting.
