Ben Affleck seeks solace in ex-wife Jennifer Garner, looks for ‘grounded and mature’ relationship after divorce from Jennifer Lopez

Ben Affleck is reportedly trying to rebuild a solid foundation with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, hoping for a more "grounded and mature" relationship.

It looks like Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, and Jennifer Garner will continue to be a part of our lives as long as their personal lives are critically examined by the media and the public alike. Even though ‘The Accountant’ actor and Garner filed for divorce in 2018, they continue to be cordial to each other for the sake of their three beloved children. Now, rumours are rife that the two have been cosying up to each other, especially after Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck in August this year.

It’s being suggested that Affleck has once again turned to Jennifer Garner, hoping to find a more “grounded and mature” relationship this time around.

Ben Affleck gravitates towards Jennifer Garner after divorce from JLo

Ben Affleck married Jennifer Garner in 2005, a year after his first split from Jennifer Lopez. Their marriage lasted for almost a decade, during the course of which they shared three children. ‘The Town’ star rekindled his romance with Jennifer Lopez in 2021, and the two decided to tie the knot a year later. However, JLo filed for divorce from the ‘Gone Baby Gone’ director in August this year.

While Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez continue to avoid each other for the time being, the former seems to be getting close to his ex-wife Garner. Recently, the two were seen celebrating Thanksgiving together. Speaking to RadarOnline, a source divulged, “He’s ready for something real, and he feels like Jennifer is great at cutting through the BS and sniffing out genuine people.”

The ’13 Going on 30′ star has apparently been doing her best to support her ex-husband by simply being there for him amid his divorce from the ‘On the Floor’ artist. However, an insider believes that the process of helping him may have turned out to be a tad bit taxing for her of late.

An insider shared, “Jen eventually got to a place where she was like, ‘Sorry, figure this out yourself. In the end, it is not Jen’s circus, not Jen’s monkeys, and she is done.” Needless to say, only time will tell how both Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are finally able to move on from each other, and, ultimately, from Jennifer Garner.
