‘She Is Trying Her Best To…’: Jennifer Garner Stays Out of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s Divorce Drama

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for celebrity dynamics, I must say that the rollercoaster ride of Ben Affleck’s romantic life is nothing short of a Hollywood blockbuster. Having followed his journey from his first stint with Jennifer Lopez to his marriage and subsequent separation with Jennifer Garner, and now back to JLo, it’s clear that love and relationships for this star are anything but predictable.


Following their second reunion, Ben Affleck tied the knot with Jennifer Lopez in 2022 at an intimate wedding. However, this former passionate couple is currently on track for divorce amidst the tumultuous circumstances. Through it all, Ben’s ex-wife and close friend, Jennifer Garner, continues to be his most steadfast ally. Despite their separation nearly a decade ago, Ben and Garner have managed to maintain their friendship and collaborative parenting relationship.

Ben Garner, who were married for ten years and have three children – Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel – have remained close friends due to their unwavering commitment to their kids. Even after their divorce in 2015, they’ve continued to support each other. Recently, when things took a turn for the worse with JLo for Ben, he turned to Jennifer for comfort. As he deals with his separation from Jennifer Lopez, she has been a great help to him.

A source close to the situation shared with US Weekly, “They have a strong bond built on trust and admiration.” Despite the turmoil Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez faced, Jennifer Garner was hoping they could mend their relationship and grow stronger. The insider added, “Jennifer hoped things would improve between them, but ultimately she just wants them to be content. So she backs whatever choice they’ve made.”

As an ardent admirer, I must say that it’s been shared by the inner circle that Jennifer Garner, known for her captivating role as Elektra in Deadpool and Wolverine, has chosen to distance herself from the ongoing situation between her exes. She’s making a conscious effort to keep herself out of their relationship’s complexities because she firmly believes it’s none of her concern what transpired between them. Meanwhile, she’s been seen in the company of John Miller, and the two seem to be quite smitten.

For those who may not know, before Ben Affleck wed Jennifer Garner in 2005, he was previously romantically connected with Jennifer Lopez. They were engaged in 2003, but their wedding plans were put on hold and they broke up in 2004. After that split, Lopez moved forward in her personal life and started dating other men, while Affleck later married Garner.

In contrast, decades after parting ways, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez reconnected in 2021. Their relationship flourished, leading to an engagement and subsequent wedding in a grand yet intimate ceremony in 2022. However, following two years of marriage, rumors about their marital troubles emerged. In August 2024, Lopez officially filed for divorce from Affleck, citing April 26, 2024 as the separation date, which was months before their second anniversary.

In August, a separate report from US Weekly mentioned that Ben and JLo’s separation stemmed from their fundamental differences. Regardless of their attempts at reconciliation, these differences ultimately proved insurmountable for them in maintaining their relationship. Despite undergoing therapy together, the challenges they faced indicated that they were not a compatible pair.
