"Now that Jen and Jen have been coparenting, they’ve been getting to know each other better and have formed a very new friendship," a source spilled to a news outlet months after the Latin pop star said "I Do" to the actress' former husband, Ben Affleck.

Lopez gushed over Garner earlier this month, praising her and Affleck's healthy coparenting relationship years after their split. "[She’s] an amazing coparent, and they work really well together," the Marry Me star told Vogue.

The famous family will also likely be celebrating the holidays together, as OK! learned. Bennifer 2.0 is planning to throw a "huge celebration" for both Thanksgiving and Christmas, and since they each have children from previous marriages, they'll extend an invite to their respective former spouses.

"They have to sort things out with both sets of kids and their exes, but they would love to have all the kids together with them as one big family and are working on that now," they added.

"He's a jeans and T-shirt kind of guy and now Jennifer is trying to tell him what he can and can't wear," claimed a source, who added, "Ben doesn't clean up after himself, which irritates the hell out of Jennifer."

What's more, "She absolutely hates Ben's cigarettes," they spilled. Despite promising to "give it up," according to the insider, Lopez's persistence has seemingly backfired, prompting Affleck to light up more often. "With all her nagging he's smoking more than ever."
