Why Jennifer Lopez ‘Isn’t Bothered’ by Those Photos of Ben Affleck Hugging Jennifer Garner (Exclusive Source)


Jennifer Lopez has no negative feelings about recent photos of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner sharing a hug at their son Samuel’s birthday party.
After photos of Affleck and Garner, both 52, surfaced showing the Accountant 2 actor wrapping his arms around her, a source tells PEOPLE that Lopez — who finalized her divorce from Affleck in January after two years of marriage — “isn’t bothered” by the pictures “at all.”
“Jennifer Garner knows what it is and knows what it is not. And people are reading into it in a way to create drama where there is none,” the source says.
According to the source, Lopez, 55, “doesn’t feel betrayed,” adding, “I think the two Jens are great admirers of the other, and I think they’re all co-parenting.”
“There is no animosity. They are friendly,” the source says, adding, “We’re always pitting women against women. In this case, it’s just not the truth.”
Garner and Affleck came together to celebrate their youngest child’s 13th birthday at a paintball party for Samuel on March 2, where they were seen sharing a laugh and hug.
“They have been on good terms for a while now and seem to enjoy chatting and hanging out,” one insider told PEOPLE of the former couple March 5. “Most of the time, the kids are around too.”
That insider added that Affleck “usually acts happy around” Garner, who is currently dating John Miller, and said, “She doesn’t seem to mind. She seems to enjoy spending time with Ben,” with whom she shares three kids: Samuel, Violet, 19, and Seraphina, 16.
