Heartache for Lopez
Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck in August, just two years after their highly publicized marriage. This marks Ben’s second divorce; his first was from actor Jennifer Garner, whom he married in 2005 and divorced in 2018. The former couple shares three children — Violet (19), Fin (15), and Samuel (12).
While Lopez reportedly believed she and Affleck would split holiday time evenly, the actor’s decision to have Thanksgiving dinner with Garner instead caused further strain. A source told Heat World Magazine, “Jen [Lopez] felt threatened by Jennifer [Garner] throughout her marriage. Ben’s tendency to turn to Garner for advice during fights drove her crazy.”
The insider added, “Jen was under the impression that Ben would be there for their holiday plans. When he flaked and instead spent the evening with Jennifer Garner, it was humiliating for her because she had told everyone he would show up.”

Relationships in the Spotlight
Garner, who has been dating businessman John Miller since 2018, continues to co-parent amicably with Affleck. Meanwhile, Lopez shares twins with her ex-husband, Latin singer Marc Anthony.
A Tumultuous Love Story
Lopez and Affleck’s romance began in the early 2000s but ended abruptly just days before their planned wedding. They rekindled their relationship in 2021, tying the knot in 2022. However, cracks in their marriage started to show earlier this year. Reports emerged in May that Ben had moved out of their Los Angeles home while filming The Accountant 2, and the couple spent most of the summer apart.
In June, Lopez and Affleck put their shared Beverly Hills mansion on the market, and by July, Affleck purchased a new $20 million property in Los Angeles. The couple is now navigating divorce proceedings, marking the end of their rekindled romance.
