Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are on the brink of finalizing their divorce. Despite their separation, their children—who come from prior relationships—wish to maintain their friendships, as they have built strong bonds.
Though the marriage did not last, insiders tell Entertainment Tonight that the divorce is a matter for Jennifer and Ben alone, and they aspire to keep a friendly connection for the sake of their kids.
The decision to part ways was made by Jennifer and Ben, yet the family desires to keep communicating regardless of their parents’ divorce. “Everyone is prepared to move forward. It’s been quite a journey for all, but each individual is trying their best,” the source expressed.
Recently, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck made a public appearance together at a family gathering, where they were joined by their children. This meeting was reportedly less stressful, thanks to the presence of the kids.
Ben has three kids—Violet, Fin, and Samuel—from his marriage to Jennifer Garner, while JLo has twins Emme and Max, whom she shares with Marc Anthony.

Last Saturday, the former couple was seen at the Polo Lounge in Beverly Hills, spending time with their blended family, which included Affleck’s children, Seraphina (15) and Samuel (12), and Lopez’s twins, Max and Emme (16). Though they appeared together and shared affectionate moments, sources confirm that their divorce proceedings are ongoing.
