Jennifer Lopez Hoping to Do ‘Something Special’ With Ex Ben Affleck and Their Kids For the Holidays

Ben Affleck is caught in a holiday tug-of-war between ex-wives Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner, insiders tell the National Enquirer.

The Batman actor, 53, is back on decent terms with J.Lo, 56, following a tense period after their divorce, which was finalized earlier this year, sources say.

However, that’s left the diva pushing hard to break bread like old times over the holidays, while reuniting her two kids with the three who Affleck coparents with Garner, a insider explains.

But the Alias beauty, 53, isn’t looking to rip up her own holiday plans to accommodate J.Lo, according to pals, who say the simmering tension is threatening to turn into a full-blown catfight.

An insider confides, “Ben had the exact same issue last year, but wound up finding a solution by splitting his time in L.A. between J.Lo and Jen.”

“That’s what he’s suggested this year, but J.Lo’s got her heart set on them doing something special as an extended family.”

“She’s offered to fly Ben and the kids somewhere tropical, so they can enjoy some R&R in the sunshine, let the kids properly catch up and put an end to any lingering awkwardness between her and Ben.”

As the Enquirer recently reported, Affleck and J.Lo put on a united front at the premiere of her flick Kiss of the Spider Woman, which was financed and coproduced by Ben and his buddy Matt Damon.

Sources also share that Affleck’s kids — Violet, 20, Fin, 16, and Samuel, 13 — are missing the company of J.Lo’s 17-year-old twins, Max and Emme, whose father is Latin crooner Marc Anthony.

Ben’s brood is currently dividing their time between his L.A. residence and that of Garner, who he divorced in 2018. She is now dating businessman John Miller, 47.

Adds the insider, “The kids are all for J.Lo’s plan. They love hanging out with their old step-siblings, and Jen’s now got a tough choice to make.”

“On one hand, she’d welcome the chance to enjoy romantic time with John. But giving J.Lo her blessing to take the kids away isn’t sitting comfortably with her. She’s telling Ben he needs to find another solution.”
