According to a source who spoke to Us Weekly, Ben Affleck’s ex-wife and mother of his children, Jennifer Garner, is “encouraging Ben to work on his marriage to Jen” amid persistent accusations that the couple is having marital problems.
“[Garner] fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy,” the insider continued. The reason for this is that, despite the fact that Garner views Afflek as “a complicated guy” and that their marriage failed, the two have always been quite cooperative with regard to their children, Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12.
Furthermore, according to certain media sources, Lopez approached Garner on her own because she believed that the actress was “one of the only people in the world who would understand what she is going through.”
“[Garner] has been through it with the same man herself and although the circumstances were quite different… they both dealt with some of the same issues,” a source told the Daily Mail.
After their 2018 breakup, Affleck and 52-year-old actress Garner began dating businessman John Miller. Although she no longer has romantic feelings for her ex-husband, she still views Lopez as a pillar of support in his life and wishes to keep their marriage intact.
An insider told the Daily Mail, “Jen really does care about JLo, so she does not want Ben to pull the plug on this marriage.”In order to try to keep the two of them together, Garner “did go to his house to talk to him about this,” they continued.
The source continued, “JLo was told multiple times by Jen how valued she is in all their lives.” “She is among the few women who can effectively communicate with Ben and prevent him from spiraling out of control due to his addiction.”
