<p id=”par-2_62″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopez-not-intend-stay-single-ben-affleck-split-might-go-a-rod-source-alleges.html/”>Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck</a> have a sweet love story, though current rumors suggest they’re approaching a divorce. Lopez and Affleck were first engaged in November 2002, but <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/why-did-jennifer-lopez-and-ben-affleck-break-up-the-first-time.html/”>they broke off the engagement in 2004</a> following intense media pressure. They both had marriages after their romance. However, they reconnected once they were single in 2021 and tied the knot in 2022. </p>

<p id=”par-3_57″>Affleck and Jennifer Garner sustained a friendship after finalizing their divorce in 2018. They share three kids, so they wanted to maintain a good relationship. Now, Affleck reportedly confides in Garner regarding his marital woes with Lopez. A source told <a href=”https://www.lifeandstylemag.com/posts/why-jennifer-garner-feels-responsible-for-ex-ben-affleck/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Life & Style</a> in July 2024 that Garner “had doubts” about Affleck and Lopez from the start.</p>

<p id=”par-4_52″>“Jen definitely had doubts that Ben and J. Lo would work out,” the insider claimed. “But she says her biggest concern is Ben spiraling worse than before. She won’t let that happen. Jen’s moved on from Ben as a husband, but because of the children they share, she’ll always feel responsible for him.”</p>

<p id=”par-5_41″>Another source added that Garner is “opening up to friends like never before” about Affleck and Lopez and “explaining why she’s been so involved lately and is often seen visiting Ben. She wants to finally share her side of the story.”</p>

<p id=”par-6_22″>The first source noted that Garner “knows” Affleck “better than anyone else,” but hearing him talk about his marriage “can be overwhelming.”</p>

<p id=”par-7_43″>Jennifer Garner seemed to help Ben Affleck at the start of his marital woes with Jennifer Lopez. However, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-garner-allegedly-done-helping-ben-affleck-jennifer-lopez-beginning-painful.html/”>she might have hit her limit</a>. A source said Garner tells Affleck that he needs to figure out his marriage issues himself without her intervention.</p>

<p id=”par-8_39″>“Jen eventually got to a place where she was like, ‘Sorry, figure this out yourself,’” an insider told <a href=”https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13440089/Jennifer-Garner-saving-ben-affleck-jennifer-lopez-marriage-relapse.html” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>DailyMail.com</a>. “It was beginning to become too painful for her because it was bringing back so many memories of their divorce.”</p>

<p id=”par-9_15″>While Garner cares deeply for Affleck and appreciates Lopez, she knows she can’t save either.</p>

<p id=”par-10_28″>“But in the end, it is not Jen’s circus, not Jen’s monkeys, and she is done playing marriage counselor to her ex-husband and his wife,” the insider continued.</p>

<p id=”par-11_34″>Jennifer Garner and Jennifer Lopez seem to get along despite Lopez and Ben Affleck’s current issues. Before Lopez and Affleck married, Garner approved of Lopez as Affleck’s spouse and a stepmom to her kids.</p>

<p id=”par-12_28″>“J.Lo has Jennifer Garner’s seal of approval,” an insider told <a href=”https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/pictures/jennifer-lopez-jennifer-garners-honest-quotes-about-each-other/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Us Weekly</a> in June 2021. “J.Lo thinks Jennifer is a kind and wonderful person and an amazing mother.”</p>

<p id=”par-13_50″>In November 2022, another insider told the publication that Garner and Lopez formed a friendship that stemmed from motherhood. “Now that Jen and Jen have been co-parenting, they’ve been getting to know each other better and have formed a very new friendship,” the source said. “They really enjoy each other.”</p>

<p id=”par-14_24″>Garner reportedly wants Affleck to work on his marriage to Lopez, proving that she still appreciates Lopez in her and her kids’ lives. </p>
