While Jennifer Garner appears to be on good terms with Ben Affleck after their messy public divorce — the actress recently posted a sweet Father's Day tribute to her Oscar-winning ex — the same can't be said for her and his girlfriend Lindsay Shookus. Despite the fact that they've been dating for while now, Jen still doesn't want her kids around Ben's girlfriend, according to reports. Read on for more details.

"Jen doesn’t want the kids around Lindsay or having her in their lives," a source exclusively revealed to Us Weekly. "She has many reasons."

The couple shares three children together, Violet, 12, Seraphina, 9, and Samuel, 6.

Jen and Ben divorced in 2015 after 10 years of marriage. The former Alias star recently confessed that she "could cry talking about" the painful split.

Lindsay 38, has been dating Ben, 45, since shortly after he left Jen. Although, a source previously told Us the relationship could have started as early as 2014.

But it looks like the couple is putting their painful past behind them. "They’re good friends,” the insider continued. "She wants him to be honest and he usually is. She tends to find out about things, and Ben is very open with her. They both want what’s best for the kids and have made a commitment to see that through."
