Jennifer Lopez is closing out the year by ending her marriage to Ben Affleck. The singer filed for divorce back in August. However, the pair have yet to make things final. Since their split, JLo has reportedly been feeling uneasy about Affleck’s close relationship with his first wife, Jennifer Garner. Now, she allegedly believes that the exes are on the fast track to a romantic reunion and she’s not happy about it.
According to Radar Online, Jennifer Lopez is “fully expecting” Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner to rekindle their relationship. Affleck and Garner are often seen together both alone and with their three children, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. They’ve been close since their divorce, and sources claim that JLo may even partially blame Garner for “casting a shadow” over her relationship with the actor during their two-year marriage.
“[JLo] can expect to see regular pictures of Ben with his family,” an insider dished. The source added that seeing Ben and Jen “looking more like a couple than a pair of exes” was the “final straw” for Lopez.

Meanwhile, the source reveals that Affleck would love to have another shot at love with Garner. However, that may not happen for him.

However, her romantic interest in him might not be reciprocated.
“Ben would get back with Jen in a heartbeat – if she’d have him,” said the informant. “As the mother of his kids, she’ll always be on a pedestal. Ben will never stop having regrets that he let her walk away all those years ago.”
Despite any rumors of bad blood between the trio, they know how to play nice in public. Over the weekend, the stars were seen reuniting at a school event for their children. They wore smiles on their faces as they supported their kids, who attend the same school.

It was previously reported that JLo had been excited to spend the holidays with Affleck and his children despite their divorce drama. Ben had allegedly promised his estranged wife to split time between her home and Garner’s house. However, he was said to have “flaked” on her during Thanksgiving.
Instead of joining Lopez for dinner, Affleck spent the entire day with Garner and their children. The family volunteered to pass out meals before returning home to share a family meal together. JLo was reportedly embarrassed and angry about the actor standing her up. However, she is said to be hopeful that they’ll spend some time together with their once-blended family for Christmas.
“She’ll never be able to compete with Garner. It’s obvious that she was the love of Ben’s life,” one fan wrote via Reddit.
“She’s not the only one convinced that Ben and JG are getting back together,” a second comment read.
“I’d prefer to believe Garner is done with him and his baggage, but keeps things civil because of the kids,” said another.
