Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck ‘Can’t Escape Each Other’ After Divorce

After a whirlwind reconnection, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot in 2022. While the couple ultimately went their separate ways, there is still a connection between them. Affleck has three children with Jennifer Garner, and Lopez has two children with Marc Anthony. The connection between their kids has kept the exes in contact.

Lopez and Affleck united their families when they married. Their children bonded, and have reportedly resented the separation between their parents.

“Their children keep them connected, they just can’t escape each other,” a source told The Daily Mail.

The couple has reportedly had to discuss their divorce dynamic. They want to support their children and remain close with the kids.

“Jennifer and Ben have been forced to have many conversations over this as the kids don’t like being separated.”

Affleck’s son Oskar and Lopez’s son Fin are reportedly particularly close.

“Oskar and Fin dug in their heels and insisted they would still be best friends,” the source said.

Lopez reportedly finds this dynamic difficult. She doesn’t want to spend time around her ex-husband, but she wants to support her children and step-children.

“She really doesn’t want to have to see Ben all the time,” the source said. “It is a reminder of what they lost, but she would do anything for her kids, so she sucks it up.”
