While Lopez has been leaning on her mom amid the breakup, Affleck has been spending tons of time with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — whom he shares kids, Violet, 19, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, with.
An insider recently revealed Garner reportedly wants nothing to do with Lopez these days.
After filing for divorce, Jennifer Lopez, her mom and Ben Affleck met up at the actor's office in Los Angeles.
"She tried not to take sides,” the source said of Garner. “Jen urged them to seek counseling and try harder to fix things," but she was eventually "dragged into Ben and J.Lo's problems."
"It’s not what she wanted, but J.Lo appealed to her gentle nature, and Jen’s such a nice person that she couldn’t say no," the source added.
Garner allegedly also had a change of heart after encouraging her offspring to stay close to Lopez amid the split.

"It was an uncomfortable position to be in," the source shared. "She felt like she was being manipulated."
"Jen just thinks it’s better if she keeps her distance from J.Lo during the divorce,” they continued. "She wants to stay out of Ben and J.Lo’s personal business from now on."
Meanwhile, Garner and Affleck have been closer than ever.
"He’s got his own place, but he’s still at her house all the time for family dinners and she never fails to send him home with a care package of food,” an insider dished. “She’s very concerned about his health, to the point where she reminds him when he needs to see the doctor and the dentist and even sends him vitamins to take because she’s convinced he doesn’t get enough healthy food when she’s not cooking for him.”
