Jennifer Garner won’t let ex Ben Affleck 'spiral worse than before' amid troubled marriage to Jennifer Lopez
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Garner is not leaving her ex-husband Ben Affleck’s side amid his apparent marital woes with his current wife, Jennifer Lopez.
An insider reportedly disclosed, “People close to Ben have been concerned about him for some time. He’s in a bad place and has been isolating.”
Jennifer Garner is worried about Ben Affleck
The source dished, “Jen’s opening up to friends like never before about it, explaining why she’s been so involved lately and is often seen visiting Ben. She wants to finally share her side of the story."
Another tipster shared that although Garner and the 51-year-old actor ended their marriage years ago, the former is concerned about “Ben spiraling worse than before.”
“Jen definitely had doubts that Ben and JLo would work out. But she says her biggest concern is Ben spiraling worse than before. She won’t let that happen,” another mole revealed.
Jennifer Garner ‘feels responsible for’ Ben Affleck
The insider also stated, “Jen’s moved on from Ben as a husband, but because of the children they share [Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12], she’ll always feel responsible for him.”
The former pair tied the knot in 2005 before ending their relationship in 2018. However, the source claimed that currently “Jen is more in tune with Ben — what makes him tick, his demons, his deepest secrets — than she ever was when they were married.”
Also, soon after their separation, the ‘13 Going on 30’ star reportedly said, “I didn’t marry the big fat movie star; I married him. And I would go back and remake that decision.”
“You can’t have these three babies and so much of what we had. He’s the love of my life ... He’s just a complicated guy,” she added.
Jennifer Garner wishes an understanding partner for Ben Affleck
Garner now reportedly hopes that Affleck “find someone who understands him and can love him unconditionally. She wants to be able to concentrate on her own future.”
“Jen’s assured friends that she is putting her needs first. She knows she deserves happiness, too,” the tipster added.
Internet says the only person responsible for Ben Affleck is himself
Meanwhile, several social media users reacted to the Garner-Affleck-JLo drama.
One person said, “Jennifer Garner is a beautiful, talented, and apparently very good human being. It's admirable what she's doing, but she needs to let him figure this out without so much support from her. The guy has serious issues, and he needs to find people who are not so tied to him, to help him out.”
“She is not responsible for him. I’m sure she cares about him as he’s the father of her children, and one of the main reasons they probably divorced had to do with his addictions. But Ben is responsible for Ben. She can only be a supportive friend,” the second individual said.
The third one shared, “Affleck sounds like a guy who never grew up & the women in life enable him to continue to be moody and make less-than-wise decisions. It's sad that men like that father children and then fail to set a good example for them by being sober and emotionally self-sufficient. Affleck's been around long enough to have taken advantage of all the helpful counseling, rehabs, etc. that money can buy. Hopefully, he won't emotionally drain Jennifer Garner as she tries to help him for their children's sake.”
The fourth one commented, “She should feel NO responsibility for or obligation to this man. He is an adult. He needs to grow up.”
“JG is a good person, but the only person who should be responsible for Ben is Ben,” the fifth one stated.
