Ben Affleck has set the record straight amid rumors suggesting he is getting back together romantically with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. A source close to Ben exclusively told TMZ that the headlines circulating about a potential romantic reunion are nothing more than “ridiculous” gossip.
Ben is reportedly happy with the strong, friendly relationship he shares with Jennifer, particularly in their role as co-parents to their children. The source emphasized that Ben has no interest in rekindling a romantic relationship with Jennifer, stating, “He’s happy they can be good friends and co-parents.”
Ben’s Focus on Family and Career
Our sources also confirm that Ben is not currently dating anyone, and his primary focus remains on his career and family. He is currently directing a new movie and spending as much time as possible with his children, whom he shares with Jen.
The rumors began after the two exes were spotted together at a paintball birthday party for their son Samuel. In a video from the event, Ben was seen hugging Jennifer from the side as she shot her paintball gun, fueling speculation that the pair might be rekindling their romance.
