Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Are Still Friends Despite Divorce – Insider

Almost one year after Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck announced their divorce, an insider has come out to provide an update on their current relationship. Recall that JLo filed for divorce last August, and the pair ultimately found a way to break up without going to court.

Their split was finalized in January, so both parties have had a few months to process their feelings and adjust to the new reality.

Revealing where things currently stand for JLo and Ben, an anonymous insider close to the former couple confirmed that they have remained friends since their separation.

“Things between Ben and Jennifer are good. Even though they’re not together anymore, they’ve stayed on friendly terms,” he said.

According to the source, in addition to their shared mansion, which has been taken off the market, Affleck and Lopez’s children continue to have a good relationship despite their parents’ divorce.

The insider disclosed that the fact that their kids have the same groups of friends has made it difficult for the ex-couple to stay out of each other’s lives.

“The kids are still really close. They have the same groups of friends, they see each other and they talk all the time. They make sure the kids know they get along. The most important thing to both of them is raising their kids in a supportive environment, so they plan to stay in each other’s lives,” the source continued.

Confirming that Ben and JLo have continued encouraging their kids’ friendship, the insider stated that Jennifer Lopez has always loved Affleck’s children like her own.

“She’s a great mom and always gave Ben’s kids the same love. Even though her contact with Ben is now more sporadic, they make sure the kids can spend time together whenever they want,” he added.
