Jennifer Garner is said to be very invested in her ex-husband Ben Affleck’s relationship with Jennifer Lopez. The actress is reportedly keeping tabs on the situation between her ex and JLo as divorce rumors continue to swirl around them. Although Garner may not be interested in the couple’s future, she is allegedly worried that the drama in Affleck’s life at the moment could cause him to spiral out of control as he’s struggled with alcohol abuse in the past.
According to OK! Magazine, Garner is said to be blaming Lopez for putting too much pressure on Affleck throughout their marriage. His well-being is very important to her because they share three children together, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. “She sees how Ben struggles with keeping up with JLo’s very public lifestyle,” an insider told the outlet.

In the past, it was Jennifer Garner who was there for Ben Affleck when he was suffering with substance abuse issues. She was by his side through some tough times, which includes three trips to rehab. Now, she’s worried that all of the media attention on his relationship with Jennifer Lopez could cause his old demons to return.
“Jen can’t stand by and do nothing. That’s not in her nature,” the source continued. “She has dropped everything to make sure Ben doesn’t spiral out of control again. At the end of the day, Ben is still the father of their children, and she will help him however she can.”

However, JLo allegedly hates that Affleck leans on Garner and wants the actress to stay out of their relationship. Only time will tell if Affleck and Lopez will be able to work things out. However, it seems Garner will be there to pick up the pieces if things go south.
