BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Garner is feeling a bit ‘slighted’ since it is reported that her three children enjoy spending more time with their dad’s current wife, Jennifer Lopez. According to a source, Violet, 17, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 10, consider Jennifer Lopez as a ‘cool’ mom compared to their own mother. "Jen can’t help but feel a little slighted,” it added.
The insider also claimed that they are so much into her that they ‘don’t want to talk’ to their own mother anymore. Apparently, Ben Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner are co-parenting their three youngsters, but they seem to be constantly drawn toward ‘cool and exciting’ Lopez over a ‘strict and serious’ mom. However, Lopez doesn’t want to ‘step on any toes,’ but she is not going to change her nature. It can be understood that she doesn’t want to discipline them as much because she knows her limits. Notably, Affleck is known to be a more lenient parent, when compared with Garner.
'He loves that his kids are embracing J Lo'
The source further claimed that the developing dynamics are also impacting Affleck, “He loves that his kids are embracing J Lo, but he doesn’t want to alienate his ex or make her feel unwanted in any way." At the same time, he refers to Garner as a ‘world-class mom". The situation has turned complicated as Garner ‘doesn’t want [her kids] to shun’ Lopez either, the source mentioned.
There are also reports that the children will move to Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’ ‘forever home’ — a mansion worth $60.85 million in Beverly Hills, California. The couple tied the knot in July 2022 and had been looking for their ‘love nest’ for some time now.
'Ben and JLo are still waiting to move into their forever home'
“Ben and JLo are still waiting to move into their forever home. They’re settled enough that the kids are over there a lot. They all have their own rooms, of course, and have moved in some of their things.” The massive mansion is reportedly merely twenty minutes away from the Beverly Hotel and can easily accommodate the entire family, as reported by OK! News.
