It is reported that Jennifer Garner, who split from her ex-husband Ben in 2018, has been ‘encouraging’ the ‘Argo’ actor to work on his marriage to Jennifer Lopez.
According to a source from Page Six, Jennifer Garner has been “encouraging” her ex-husband Ben Affleck to work on his marriage to Jennifer Lopez. An insider reveals, “When things started getting rocky between Ben and Jennifer [Lopez], Jen was very supportive of their relationship and encouraged Ben to work on their marriage.”
Garner’s support reportedly extended to her friendship with Lopez, with the actresses “communicating on a regular basis.” Page Six further reports that Garner, while “not in touch” with Lopez recently, has “no problem” with her. The source emphasizes, “At the end of the day, she just wants Ben to be happy.”
Despite her encouragement, Lopez, 55, filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, 2024, the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding ceremony.
Garner and Affleck, who share three children together, have maintained a close relationship after their divorce in 2015. As reported by Us Weekly, Garner supports Affleck’s marriage to Lopez, understanding the pressures of being in the spotlight.
Affleck and Lopez, who rekindled their romance in 2022, have faced speculation surrounding their relationship. However, sources close to them have confirmed that they are working on their marriage and not planning to separate.
The couple’s relationship has garnered attention since their initial romance in the early 2000s. After calling off their wedding in 2004, they eventually married in 2022.
