Jennifer Garner has reportedly distanced herself from Jennifer Lopez amid the ongoing divorce battle between Lopez and her ex-husband, Ben Affleck. As the couple navigates their separation, sources claim that Garner has drawn firm boundaries, communicating with Lopez only when necessary for the sake of their children. This move follows Garner’s role in trying to mediate between Lopez and Affleck during their troubled marriage, a position that, according to insiders, left her feeling used and manipulated.
Garner, who shares three children with Affleck, was initially pulled into the messy dynamics of Lopez and Affleck’s marriage, even attempting to serve as a “marriage counselor” in hopes of reconciling the couple. However, sources close to the actress now say she regrets becoming so involved, especially after Lopez filed for divorce on August 20, just two years after their whirlwind wedding.
Things reportedly escalated when Lopez’s sister, Lynda, visited Garner’s daughter Violet at her university, a gesture that seemed to cross a line for the former Alias star. “Jen’s loyalty is to Ben and their kids. She would never speak negatively about JLo, but she is clear on where her priorities lie,” an insider shared.
The ongoing tension highlights the complex relationships at play, with Affleck caught in the middle. While Garner continues to co-parent peacefully with her ex-husband, her newfound distance from Lopez paints a stark picture of the unraveling of Bennifer 2.0. Amidst these developments, Lopez is reportedly moving on, with new rumors swirling that she may be romantically involved with her bodyguard.
As the divorce proceedings heat up, it’s clear that the once-glamorous Hollywood love story is now facing its most difficult chapter, with lingering personal and professional repercussions for everyone involved.
