Another source shared that since getting his own place, Affleck has been feeling “hopeful.” The new property is closer to his ex, Jennifer Garner and he can hence co-parent much more easily too. “Ben really likes his new home and feels hopeful about the change,” the source shared. “It’s been a hard time for him, but he’s continuing to make his wellbeing and his family a priority.” Another source agreed with this, they said, “Ben wanted to be closer to his kids with his new home and wanted a new, fresh, personal space where he can focus on work and be in his most creative zone without any outside distractions.”
As for Lopez, a source close to her noted that she is “also ready to move forward and is ready to close this chapter cordially.” “The timing of the transition made her birthday a bit more difficult, but with the support of her friends and family, she’s doing her best day by day,” the source went on. This was not the first time Lopez and Affleck were together. The couple were originally together from 2002 to 2004. They called off their first engagement in January 2004. However, they reunited and rekindled their relationship in 2021, tying the knot in Las Vegas in July 2022.
