Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s marriage is reportedly hanging by a thread. The couple have been dealing with divorce rumors for months. However, as their second wedding anniversary approaches, it’s being revealed that their children are unhappy about their parents’ alleged split. The pair have five children between them. Affleck shares three kids, Violet, Fin, and Samuel, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner. Meanwhile, JLo has twins Max and Emme with former husband Marc Anthony.
Sources tell The Daily Mail that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s children believe that their parents are soul mates. The kids are allegedly upset about the couple’s relationship woes, and now they’re plotting ways to get the couple back together before JLo’s 55th birthday in August.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s Kids Are Hoping for Reconciliation
“The kids think Jennifer and Ben are really, deeply in love, like soul mates, and they don’t want them to divorce,” an insider says. “They want them to work it out for better or for worse, like their vows said. And they do feel that the two should continue counseling and talking it out, even if it is painful. They feel like if they do and say the right things that there could be more peace.”
The source claims that Affleck’s three kids are trying to get their dad to loosen up and have more fun. Meanwhile, JLo’s twins are said to be more relaxed and enjoy life. They’re also trying to point out each other’s positive attributes in hopes of rekindling the couple’s spark.
“The kids get along great, especially Emme and Fin, they are best friends and talk every day,” the insider said. “They tell Ben and Jenny, hey don’t give up, don’t lose this.”
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s five children are now hopeful that they can get their parents to celebrate JLo’s birthday with a low-key family party. If the family is together, they may be able to convince the duo to give their marriage another shot.
To date, neither Jennifer Lopez nor Ben Affleck have made any public announcements about their rumored divorce. However, they have been spending most of their time apart, and fans fear that it’s only a matter of time before they share news of a split.
