Real reason Jennifer Lopez and her sister keep in touch with ex Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s kids
Jennifer Lopez has reportedly remained in contact with the children of her ex-husband Ben Affleck.
A source has shared with People that Jennifer, 55, has kept ‘in touch’ with Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, the three children Ben, 52, shares with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
The new update comes after Violet was seen hanging out with Jennifer’s sister Lynda Lopez in a recent selfie.
The Let’s Get Loud singer, who has two children of her own and filed for divorce from Ben back in August, has reportedly made herself available to the kids if they ever need her.
‘Jennifer keeps in touch with the Affleck kids. Her whole family loves them. She wants them to know that they can always reach out if they need anything at all,’ the source said.

Ben’s eldest child, daughter Violet, has indeed forged a warm relationship with her former stepmother.
Over the summer, amid rumors of a Bennifer divorce, Violet was seen hanging out with Jennifer in the Hamptons.
Violet was even seen wearing Jennifer’s Dolce & Gabbana dress during an outing in Brentwood, California recently. It’s the same dress Jennifer wore during a date night with Ben on Valentine’s Day last year.
More recently, Jennifer’s sister Lynda visited Violet at Yale University, and the duo took a selfie together.
Jennifer was also seen going shopping with Samuel back in August, shortly before the divorce was announced.
The Waiting For Tonight singer is a mother of two herself – she has 16-year-old twins Emme and Max with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.
The new update comes after DailyMail.com reported that Ben and Garner were confused by Violet’s decision to keep Lynda ‘close’.
Violet is determined to maintain her connection to the singer and her family and reached out to Lynda to arrange the catch-up.

‘Violet has a strong attachment to JLo and her family,’ an insider told DailyMail.com. ‘It’s quite confusing to Ben and Jen [Garner] because they do not understand why Violet is so adamant on keeping her close.’
The insider revealed that Violet invited Lynda, adding: ‘She looks up to JLo and Lynda and is intent on keeping the bond alive.
‘Violet said that she just reached out to her and said she wanted to come visit.’
