Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s marriage is reportedly heading for divorce. The couple’s behavior has been hinting that there may be trouble in paradise, and the actor has allegedly been leaning on his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, for support during the difficult time. Now, sources claim that Affleck and Garner’s close relationship may be pushing JLo even further away as the two are planning to live together amid the divorce drama.
As Ben Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez fizzles out, his friendship with Jennifer Garner has seemingly gotten stronger. Sources tell Life and Style Magazine that the former spouses have been spending a lot of time together. Affleck even has a key to Garner’s house, and he can come and go as he wishes. He’s happy to be close to Garner and their three children, Violet, Fin, and Samuel again.
Is Ben Affleck Moving in With Ex-Wife Jennifer Garner Amid JLo Divorce?
“It’s great for his state of mind, and the kids love having him around,” the insider dished. “[It’s] why Jen’s open to the idea of having him move back in.”
Garner is said to have a “ton of space” at her home. This means that Affleck could move in and he wouldn’t be in her way. She also believes that their kids would love having their dad so close. However, it remains to be seen what Garner’s boyfriend, John Miller, would think about Garner’s ex-husband moving in.
“Ben’s not short on money, but he’s not really looking to move into a hotel; it’s just too anonymous for him,” the source says. “He could go to another luxury rental but considering all the time he’s spending at Jen’s place anyway it makes sense to just take one of her guest rooms.”
In addition, Ben Affleck allegedly believes that Jennifer Garner is the only person who can help him stay grounded so that he doesn’t fall off the wagon. He’s reportedly attending AA meetings amid his relationship issues with Jennifer Lopez. However, being around Garner and their kids could be the thing keeping him steady.
Neither Jennifer Lopez nor Ben Affleck have made any public statements about their marriage so far. However, the actor has moved out of their shared home, and it seems things may not be going well for the couple as their second wedding anniversary approaches.
