Jennifer Lopez is reportedly in hot water with Julia Garner, the ex-wife of her now-husband, Ben Affleck. The actor, who has displayed addictive behaviors with alcohol in the past, has switched his vice to smoking—which his wife is fine with, but his baby mama is reportedly “furious.” Garner has a no smoking rule around their three kids, but it doesn’t seem like JLo or Ben take it very seriously.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were first romantically involved back in 2002—in fact they actually got engaged—but that relationship ended in 2004. Ben then married Jennifer Garner in 2005, and over the course of their 13-year marriage, they had three kids together. Meanwhile, Lopez was married to Marc Anthony from 2004 until 2o14. The pair remained friends over the years, and eventually rekindled their romance in 2021 and wed in 2022.
‘Tension’ Between Jennifer Garner & JLo Over Ben’s Smoking Habit
Ben Affleck was recently caught smoking by paparazzi while driving Lopez’s $450,000 Rolls-Royce—with his 11-year-old son in the car. Uh oh!
A source who spoke to Star Magazine explained that it comes down to a difference in opinion. “Jen and JLo have very different views on [Ben’s smoking habit]. JLo is grateful Ben is sober, and if he needs to smoke to get through the day, it’s better than falling off the wagon.”
Jennifer Garner on the other hand, finds Ben’s smoking habit “disgusting,” and while she’s “been very good about not poking her nose into Ben’s [life]… this is putting her patience to the test.” She is very serious about Ben not smoking around their children—she reportedly has a no smoking rule—and JLo not being completely on board with this rule has caused some “tension.”
Fans Stand With Jennifer Garner
Fans have taken to social media to share their opinions on the matter, and the unanimous agreement is that Ben Affleck is way out of line. “It is NOT too much to ask,” one user wrote. “My brother got lung cancer and died from SECOND-HAND smoke.”
“Kids whose parents smoke spend about a fourth of their life inhaling death,” another user added.
“I agree with Garner; it is best that their father not smoke around the kids,” another person commented. “He also needs to express to his children that they should not smoke, he’s not setting a good example.”
“I’ll side with Garner—no children need to be exposed to persons who smoke,” another agreed. “It’s not even good for adults. I’m always surprised to see adults in their vehicles, driving and smoking. Have they not learned anything from the past?”
“I am with Jennifer Garner when it comes to the safety of her children…Hope he can quit,” one person replied.
“He should smoke around his children,” a final person commented. “Ben needs to listen to his ex-wife about it and JLo has absolutely no part in this.”
