Jennifer Garner’s recent visit to her former spouse Ben Affleck on his birthday has caught attention, especially amidst ongoing speculations surrounding Affleck’s relationship with Jennifer Lopez.
Despite their divorce back in 2018, Garner and Affleck have managed to maintain an amicable relationship, especially in co-parenting their three children: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.
Their dedication to providing a nurturing environment for their children was evident in Garner’s recent visit, showcasing the enduring bond between them.
In recent headlines, Garner has made a return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Elektra in the upcoming “Deadpool & Wolverine” movie, playfully acknowledging her shared history with Affleck.
This development unfolds against the backdrop of increasing scrutiny over Affleck and Lopez’s relationship, fueling rumors of a possible split.
Lopez marked Affleck’s birthday with nostalgic Instagram posts, coinciding with Garner’s visit, adding more speculation to the mix.
Lopez celebrated her birthday separately in the Hamptons, hosting a lavish dinner at Nick & Toni’s restaurant in an exquisite Dior Haute Couture outfit, followed by a “Bridgerton”-themed celebration that underscored the physical distance between her and Affleck.
Challenges in the Marital Relationship
The couple, who recently commemorated their second wedding anniversary in July while being miles apart, have been rumored to be encountering difficulties within their marriage since May.
Rumors gained traction when Affleck was noticeably absent during major events like the Met Gala and promotional activities for Lopez’s film “Atlas.”
Sources have hinted that Affleck has been reevaluating their relationship, feeling overwhelmed by its intensity. Meanwhile, Garner has reportedly been providing support to Affleck in navigating the challenges within his marriage to Lopez.
