Bennifer may be over, but the bond between their blended families remains! Jennifer Lopez‘s sister, Lynda, recently proved that her sibling’s divorce from Ben Affleck has nothing to do with her. She showcased her love for the Gone Girl actor’s daughter, Violet, in a recent post.
Lynda updated her Instagram page with three shots of her visit to Yale University, where Affleck’s daughter is enrolled. The first image was a selfie taken by Violet, and it captures her beaming at the camera. Meanwhile, Lopez’s sister flashes a sweet smile over her step-niece’s shoulder. The other two images detailed scenes from the university, with Fall leaves everywhere.
“New Haven with my favorite Yalie! [Blue heart emoji],” Lynda captioned the post. Her tender moment with Violet sparks multiple comments from fans excited about their bond amid Lopez and Affleck’s divorce. Someone who described the families’ bond as “Beautiful and special!” believes nothing can come between them, not even the divorce.
“This is really sweet that despite what happens in a marriage, the Lopez seem to be very loving towards the kids,” another penned. “Violet loves her stepmum and the entire Lopez family,” a third declared. An IG user echoed similar sentiments, writing, “Beautiful positive family vibes! So beautiful to see them together….Auntie & niece.”
Ben Affleck Is Allegedly Tired of ‘Awkward’ Run-Ins With Jennifer Lopez
Fans’ happiness over Lynda and Violet’s bond might stem from recent reports about their loved ones. We previously covered that Affleck and Lopez were experiencing “awkward” and “icy” vibes whenever they ran into each other. A source claimed the Justice League actor was tired of bumping into his estranged wife, especially at school functions. In their words:
“Ben knows he’s going to see Jen at these functions. Their kids go to the same school, so how could he not? Still, it’s awkward.”
Although Affleck enjoys an amicable relationship with his former wife, Jennifer Garner, Lopez might not receive the same treatment. “She’d like to be closer, but as far as Ben’s concerned, it’s better for them to keep separate lives as much as possible,” the informant shared. Even if Affleck does not enjoy being around Lopez, the estranged couple still have a working relationship.
The pair previously collaborated on a film that would premiere in December. Additionally, they need to be in contact to settle their divorce. “Ben and Jen are resigned to keeping things as is. The hope is it’ll get easier as time goes by,” the source added. Fans shared their two cents on the alleged tension between Affleck and Lopez. Someone claimed the actor was “tired of seeing her everywhere” and related to his struggle.
They implied that children would be the only reason he would want to be around his estranged wife. Another stressed that “Bennifer will always be a thing.” They noted that even after Affleck and Lopez’s divorce, they would never shed their couple name. “Those two are going to be linked together forever. Nothing to be done about it now,” the fan claimed.
With Lynda and Violet’s bond, will Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck maintain an amicable relationship for their families’ sake?
