A photo can tell a thousand words. But when it comes to the consequences of the Bombshell images of the Daily Mail from Ben Affleck who shares an intimate moment with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner on Sunday, only one stands out: betrayal.
At least, a source is close to Jennifer Lopez-de recently divorced, second ex-wife of Affleck-Vertelt us that the 55-year-old singer now feels. And maybe understandable.
In the exclusive video images – imprisoned a few days after the divorce of JLO and Affleck was officially completed last month – Affleck Garner, the mother of his three children, can be seen in a tender way, with his arm around her lower waist.
The couple, both 52, was from paintball near Los Angeles with two of their teenage children.
'[JLo] Saw the paint -balling images when the rest of the world did, and of course it will make her things together, “said the source close to Lopez. 'Her friends wondered how Platonic Jen [Garner] And be being. '
“She will feel betrayed because she has invested so much time in supporting Ben because of his challenges and had a difficult year when their marriage broke,” the source added. “Seeing how quickly he started to spend more time with Garner with Garner, has worsened the worries she already had about his relationship with her while they were married.”

“Seeing how quickly he started to spend more time with Garner, has worsened the worries she already had about his relationship with her while they were married,” said the source.
The collapse of the JLO Affleck wedding was indeed messy.
After dating in the early 2000s, the couple brought their romance to light in 2021 drastically before it put the knot in a Las Vegas ceremony in July.
They bought a $ 68 million Beverly Hills -house together, and JLO then released a new album ('This is me … Now'), a corresponding musical film ('This is me … Now: a love Story') and a documentary ('The Greatest Love Story Never Tell') all dedicated.
But as we would learn later, the fairy tale could not be sustained, with insiders revealing that the couple was already 'unhappy' on their Italian honeymoon.
Come 2024, and things were quickly deteriorated. Affleck moved the marital house and to a Brentwood rental of $ 100,000 a month-on only two blocks away from where Garner lives.
His ex-wife with whom he was married from 2005 to 2018 soon, something of a regular presence.
The couple had remained friendly after their divorce and Garner reportedly came in as a 'mediator' and 'wedding adviser' when Affleck's relationship with JLO collapsed.
For her part, Garner is said to go out with Tech CEO John Miller recently after her divorce from Affleck in 2018.
Despite Garner's efforts to smooth the things behind the scenes, JLO applied for a divorce last August.
Allegedly Affleck then spent both Thanksgiving and Christmas with Garner and their children.
And, as insiders revealed last month, Affleck and Garner now 'SMS, call and communicate much more than they have in recent years.'
After the Daily Mail published the intimate Paintballling images on Monday, representatives from both Affleck and Garner did not respond to requests for comments.
A source close to Affleck, however, told us: 'Ben is not Jen's boyfriend, nor is he her husband anymore. John [Miller] Is her partner and she is happy in her relationship. Ben's friends really believe that if Jen and John split, he would come back with her in a heartbeat. But that is not the case, and I am respecting her relationship with John. '
That source added: “Is it hinders John when he sees the two that are sensitive? Certainly. It would reach everyone, but this is nothing new. Ben and Jen have a unique relationship, especially for exes. He loves her more than every woman he has ever loved than his mother. But he also accepts that this is not possible. Not while she is dedicated to someone else. Ben will always flirt with Jen, and she sees it as innocent. '
But the question is of course: Jlo Also view the flirting of her ex-husband as innocent?
Garner and Affleck were all smiling when they arrived on Sunday for a day of family pleasure in a paintball park in Los Angeles.
The exclusive video images were taken prisoner just a few days after the divorce of JLO and Affleck was officially completed last month. (Shown: at their wedding in Las Vegas in 2022).
While a source close to the singer was certain that it had 'betrayed' her, another insider told another story.
'[JLo] was never jealous of jen [Garner]”said the other source. '[Garner and Affleck] His parents for their children and their connection is that.
'[JLo] Do not always see the photos or videos of Jen [Garner] And I am together, she is not looking for them, but when she sees them, she knows that there is a reason to be together and it usually has to do with their children. '
Asked about the possibility of a romantic reconnection between Affleck and Garner, this other source said: “As Jen [Garner] And Ben would come together again, what could JLO say? Not much because she did it herself. She wants Ben to be happy, so if that is with his children's mother, then it is. [JLo] is a strong proponent of true love, and everyone is on their own journey, and she knows that [Garner and Affleck’s] Children would absolutely love it. '
Representatives of JLO, Affleck and Garner did not respond to requests for comments.
