Jennifer Lopez congratulated Ben Affleck on Father's Day amid marriage problems
Jennifer Lopez congratulated Ben Affleck on Father's Day, despite problems in her marriage and insider reports that the singer was “tired of fighting” for her relationship.
On Instagram* Lopez published an archival photo of her husband and signed: “Our hero.” Lopez and Ben Affleck do not have any children together, but the actor has three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner. Lopez has a good relationship with them: they often go for walks together and spend time together.
Online, however, not everyone believes in the couple’s attempts to show that everything is fine with them. So, one of the most likely reasons is their different views on how public their relationship should be. Affleck, who doesn't like too much attention, is tired of the constant attention, according to insiders.
And recently there were reports that Ben started drinking again amid problems. He had problems with alcohol before, in a previous marriage. So, the actor said in an interview that he started drinking precisely against the backdrop of problems in his marriage with his ex-wife, because he was unhappy with Garner. The actor was then heavily criticized for these words, and he had to make excuses.
In May, it became known that Lopez and Affleck no longer lived together, and rumors began to spread online that they were on the verge of divorce. They also put their family mansion up for sale. Insiders recently told the media that the couple was experiencing stress due to problems in their personal lives, but despite this, they did not want to get divorced and were doing everything to save their relationship. The stars continue to be seen together from time to time. Both Ben and Jennifer are still wearing their wedding rings, although Affleck had previously taken it off twice.
