Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are very excited to be taking the next steps in their relationship, and it sounds like the people closest to them totally approve. In June 2021, a source told Us Weekly that Affleck has the support of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. “JLo has Jennifer Garner’s seal of approval. JLo thinks Jennifer is a kind and wonderful person and an amazing mother,” the source said at the time. As Affleck and Lopez work on blending their families — he has three children with Garner and Lopez has two children with Marc Anthony — Garner seems to be open to helping that process along.
According to Hollywood Life, Garner wants Affleck and Lopez to attend her 50th birthday party. “Jen is in a really good place with Ben and Jennifer [Lopez] so of course she has extended an invitation. Things are still a bit up in the air right now because she understands they have a ton going on with moving and everything,” a source told the outlet. While it’s unclear if Affleck and Lopez will accept the invitation, it sounds like everyone really approves of this union.
Garner turned 50-years-old on April 17, 2022.
