Ben Affleck is embracing a new chapter in his life after his split from Jennifer Lopez, focusing on his family and his newfound single life. Sources close to the actor report that Affleck, who has been in the public eye for his “grumpy” outings with Lopez earlier this year, is now cherishing quality moments with his three children and looking forward to the holidays.
Living Life to the Fullest with Family
Reportedly, Affleck 52, is “healthy, single and loving life,” according to an insider. Spending more time with his children Violet Anne (19), who recently returned from Yale, and Seraphina Rose (15) and Samuel (12), whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner is at the forefront of his mind. Affleck is reportedly thrilled to have Violet back for the holidays and has been having quality time with his children, especially over Thanksgiving. The family was seen volunteering together, distributing food and essentials to the homeless, reflecting the actor’s commitment to family values and community involvement.
The Divorce That Remains Unsettled with Lopez:
Although Ben and Jennifer Lopez have been spotted together lately, especially during the holidays, their divorce is still pending. It is said that it is delayed because of disagreements over dividing their assets. Despite all these tensions, the ex-couple has been spotted exchanging Christmas gifts at Soho House in Los Angeles, showing that they can still put aside their personal differences for the sake of family and the festive season.
Sources confirm that both Affleck and Lopez are indeed committed to co-parenting their children and are also on friendly terms. From what it seems, both are leaving their past and are trying to be present in each other’s lives in a positive and supporting manner, despite their split.
Life After Marriage
Affleck has relocated to a rental house in Brentwood, close to Jennifer Garner’s abode, after leaving the marital home with Lopez. In contrast, Garner, who is seeing businessman John Miller now, is expected to marry him soon. Nonetheless, Garner still wants to maintain her cordial relationship with ex-partner Affleck for the sake of the kids and spend time with them as a family.
A source close to Garner said, “She really just wants her kids to be happy,” and emphasized that she will keep making sure the family remains connected, with Ben being involved in family activities.
The Future:
As the end of 2024 closes in, it appears Ben Affleck seems to focus on family, self-improvement, and a very optimistic way of viewing the future. Being healthy, single, and living his life as best he can with his children certainly presents a positive start for entering into 2025.
Meanwhile, Lopez is spending plenty of time with her little ones, Max, and Emme, while celebrating the holiday season with family and other close friends. Lopez and Affleck still continue their mutual support in their life as well as family which becomes an example of mutual co-parenting and goodwill even after divorce.
It seems that both stars are balancing their post-marriage lives, continuing to put their families first while maintaining a friendly, supportive relationship with one another.
