Recent reports suggest that Ben Affleck is seeking solace from his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, amid his tumultuous marriage with Jennifer Lopez.
Sources indicate that Garner has drawn a line, telling Affleck to handle his issues independently.
This revelation adds a new layer of complexity to the already dramatic love story involving these Hollywood stars.
According to an insider who spoke to the Daily Mail, Garner has reached her breaking point.
After years of co-parenting and supporting Affleck, she is now stepping back.
“Jen had last reached a point where she was like, sorry, sort this out yourself,” the source revealed.
It’s a stark shift from the supportive role she once played, particularly after Affleck and Lopez rekindled their romance following a lengthy separation.
Affleck and Lopez’s relationship has been a rollercoaster ride.
They first got engaged in the early 2000s, only to part ways.
Fast forward to 2022, and they tied the knot, seemingly putting the past behind them.
Yet, whispers of trouble in paradise have begun to surface, suggesting that the couple’s marriage may be on shaky ground.
Interestingly, during Affleck’s marriage to Garner, there was little interaction between Garner and Lopez.
However, it seems that Garner has always felt overshadowed by Lopez.
The insider noted that Garner was taken aback by Affleck’s public displays of affection for Lopez, especially since he preferred to keep things low-key during their own marriage.
Garner has reportedly been supportive of Lopez and the children they share, demonstrating a sense of maturity and understanding.
“She cares about J.Lo and their kids and how it will affect them all,” the source said.
But as any good friend would, she recognizes her limits.
“It isn’t Jen’s circus, not her monkeys,” the insider added, indicating that she’s done playing the role of marriage counselor for her ex and his current wife.
As rumors swirl about the potential end of Affleck and Lopez’s marriage, reports claim that their relationship has been strained since spring.
On June 30, Affleck was spotted visiting Garner’s home, perhaps seeking advice or comfort during this challenging time.
In the past, Garner has been an encouraging presence in Affleck’s life, even supporting his relationship with Lopez.
A source revealed that she genuinely wants him to find happiness, stating, “She fully supports their relationship.”
However, the dynamics seem to have shifted, with Garner now prioritizing her own well-being.
The couple’s public appearances have also raised eyebrows.
In May, Lopez attended the Met Gala solo, igniting speculation about their marriage.
Shortly thereafter, it was reported that they were living separately, adding fuel to the fire of divorce rumors.
Further complicating matters, Affleck and Lopez’s lavish $60 million Beverly Hills home was listed on Zillow in June.
