Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are no strangers to divorce. The couple navigated their own split in 2018 after over a decade of marriage. The duo share three children together, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. They’ve also remained close friends since ending their marriage. So, it’s not surprising that Garner may be a source of support to Affleck as he deals with his allegedly rocky marriage with his current wife, Jennifer Lopez. Rumors continue to circulate that JLo’s relationship with the actor has declined since they tied the knot in 2022. Now, Garner is reportedly offering up some advice for her ex.
According to Us Weekly, Garner has been encouraging Affleck to make a decision when it comes to a possible divorce with Lopez. The mother of three is allegedly trying to sway her former husband to work things out with JLo if he can. Sources claim that Garner wants her ex to be happy, and if that means fighting for his marriage to the singer then that’s what he should do.
Jennifer Garner Wants Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez To Work Things Out
“Jennifer Garner is encouraging Ben to work on his marriage to Jen,” an insider stated. “She fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy.”
Garner is said to know firsthand just how much the spotlight “can put a strain” on a high-profile relationship. So, she’s encouraging Ben Affleck to work things out with Jennifer Lopez. Meanwhile, other stressors, such as JLo’s disappointing album and tour sales, are said to have factored into the marital issues as well.
Recently, sources told Page Six that Affleck felt like his marriage to Lopez has been a “fever dream” and that “temporary insanity” may have been to blame for the couple’s nuptials in the first place.
“He’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work,” the insider stated.
Fans are keeping a close eye for any news or hints that reveal what Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez plan to do. However, if divorce is in the cards for Affleck and JLo, Jennifer Garner will likely be there to help her ex pick up the pieces.
