Jennifer Lopez Felt ‘Humiliated’ When Ben Affleck Spent Thanksgiving with Ex Jennifer Garner
Jennifer Lopez reportedly feels sidelined after Ben Affleck prioritises holiday time with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
December 14, 2024: Jennifer Lopez is reportedly struggling to cope with her ongoing divorce from Ben Affleck, particularly after he spent Thanksgiving with his former wife, Jennifer Garner. Sources reveal that the sight of Ben celebrating the holidays with Garner has left Lopez feeling “humiliated.”
Heartache for Lopez
Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck in August, just two years after their highly publicized marriage. This marks Ben’s second divorce; his first was from actor Jennifer Garner, whom he married in 2005 and divorced in 2018. The former couple shares three children — Violet (19), Fin (15), and Samuel (12).
While Lopez reportedly believed she and Affleck would split holiday time evenly, the actor’s decision to have Thanksgiving dinner with Garner instead caused further strain. A source told Heat World Magazine, “Jen [Lopez] felt threatened by Jennifer [Garner] throughout her marriage. Ben’s tendency to turn to Garner for advice during fights drove her crazy.”
The insider added, “Jen was under the impression that Ben would be there for their holiday plans. When he flaked and instead spent the evening with Jennifer Garner, it was humiliating for her because she had told everyone he would show up.”
