Ben Affleck Allegedly Wants 'Another Chance' At Romance With Ex-Wife Jennifer Garner Following Divorce From J-Lo
Ben Affleck may be looking to rekindle his romance with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, just weeks after finalizing his divorce with former wife Jennifer Lopez.
A source close to the Justice League star told Page Six that Affleck would allegedly "love another chance" with Garner "if the timing is ever right. " However, the source noted that Affleck knows another shot at romance with Garner is not possible at the moment, especially with him focusing on his work following his divorce and the actress in a relationship with businessman John Miller.
"Ben respects Jen's relationship with John and would never come between them," the source noted.
The former couple, who divorced in 2018 after 13 years of marriage, has been spotted spending quality time together, fueling rumors of a possible reconciliation. In fact, last Sunday, the pair was spotted enjoying a paintball outing to celebrate their son Samuel's 13th birthday. Eyewitnesses reported that they laughed and hugged throughout the day.
Despite spending time together, Garner is allegedly not looking to rekindle her romance with Affleck. She adds that she is happy with their co-parenting relationship. The couple has three children: Violet, 19; Fin, 16; and Samuel, 13.
