Here's How Jennifer Lopez Apparently Feels About Those Photos Of Ben Affleck Hugging Jennifer Garner
It doesn't look like Jennifer Lopez will release a "Bad Blood" remix anytime soon.
Earlier this month, suggestive photos went viral of Ben Affleck giving his ex, Jennifer Garner, a really tight hug at their son's birthday party.
They share three kids: Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, who turned 13th this month. Garner and Affleck were married in 2005, announced their split in 2015, and their divorce was finalized three years later.
With this new viral photo, of course, the internet speculated there was more behind the hug, which could spark drama considering Affleck and Garner's other relationships since their split.
If you remember, after rekindling their relationship in 2021 and getting married in July 2022, Affleck and Lopez filed for divorce, which marked their second high-profile split since they broke off their first engagement in 2004.
In January 2025, the divorce was finalized after nearly 20 weeks, so it makes sense why people would wonder how Lopez feels about Affleck seemingly cozying up with his previous ex-wife.
According to an insider obtained by People, Affleck and Garner "have been on good terms for a while now and seem to enjoy chatting and hanging out." The insider clarified that "most of the time, the kids are around too," so it feels like nothing more than a co-parenting situation.
As for Garner, she's been dating John C. Miller, the CEO of CaliBurger and its parent company, CaliGroup.
The source added that Affleck "usually acts happy around" Garner and has been "extra giddy lately, though, and much more affectionate."
So, how does the "On The Floor" singer feel about all these viral photos? According to a source obtained by People, Lopez "isn't bothered" by the cozy photos "at all."
The source claims, " 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 added that Lopez "doesn't feel betrayed" and "I think the two Jens are great admirers of the other, and I think they're all co-parenting."
In case you wanted some mess, you're out of luck. It's copacetic in the world of Ben's ex-Jennifers. "There is no animosity. They are friendly," the source continued, "We're always pitting women against women. In this case, it's just not the truth."
Personally, I find it very admirable that Ben and the Jennifers have maintained a decent co-parenting relationship for the children. It's far better than the Bravo-esque drama people are searching for. Tell me what you think about this in the comments.

Tisdale, 39, who played musical theater queen bee Sharpay Evans in the hit Disney franchise, recently caught up with PEOPLE and she exclusively shared what she thought was 'so funny' about the role. 'When I played the character of Sharpay — I think it was probably what made her so funny — was that I truly thought [Sharpay] was the popular girl in school. I thought Sharpay was popular, and I played it like she was popular,' Tisdale recalls. 'And [director] Kenny Ortega enhanced that. He really made me feel like I was popular. But what's so funny is that she's not the popular girl. She's the drama queen. And my husband's like, 'That's what's so funny about how you played it. You really thought you were popular,' ' she continues. The actress also shared how it feels 'so cool' to see the character find new life on social media and in meme culture. 'Sharpay is — I swear she's mother to everybody — because it's like she just keeps coming back on these memes and people keep talking and doing the songs,' she says. 'And I'm just like, I mean, out of everyone in High School Musical, my character is the most iconic. It's so cool.'

"It's just, you're like, 'Dang, man.' I can't believe out of everything that I auditioned for [...] I got this animation [series] that has lasted this long. Or I was always trying to get a Disney movie, and never got the movie. And then, I got High School Musical. " 'Out of all the ones, I get that. This is pretty awesome,' she says. High School Musical became one of the most successful Disney Channel Original movies of all time. It generated two popular sequel films, the third of which was released in theaters in 2008 and earned more than $250 million worldwide at the box office, per Variety. High School Musical 3: Senior Year marked the biggest opening weekend for a musical film up until that point (though it was eventually eclipsed by Les Misérables in 2012).

‘Vanderpump Rules' Star Tom Sandoval Impresses ‘AGT' Judges With Surprise Audition Tape
Tom Sandoval has got skills — or, at least, that's what he's trying to prove on America's Got Talent. In a preview for the show's Tuesday, June 24, episode shared on Friday, June 20, Sandoval, 42, tells judges Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Mel B and Howie Mandel he's auditioning for the show because he's out of options. 'My name is Tom Sandoval, I was the most hated man in America,' Sandoval said in a clip shared via Instagram, referencing the so-called 'Scandoval' drama that unfolded on season 10 and 11 of Vanderpump Rules after Tom cheated on his then-girlfriend Ariana Madix with friend Raquel Leviss. 'This is the chance to show who I am as a musician.' He then launched into a cover of the 1980s song 'Take On Me' while cavorting onstage in a bedazzled green jacket and black pants. Ariana Madix Makes Subtle Jab at Tom Sandoval After Being Sued Over Explicit Rachel Leviss Videos Initially, judges weren't quite sure what to make of Sandoval. Cowell was seen grimacing at the beginning of the performance before cracking a smile, while Vergara seemed to doubt Sandoval's singing abilities. While Sandoval and the rest of the original cast of Vanderpump Rules will not be returning — in November, Bravo announced an entirely new cast will return for season 12 – Sandoval has not left reality TV behind. In May, Sandoval was announced as part of the cast of season 3 of House of Villains. He will be joined by Below Deck alum Kate Chastain, season 1 and 2 cast member Tiffany Pollard and Selling Sunset's Christine Quinn, as well as by Big Brother's Paul Abrahamian, Survivor's Tyson Apostol, Basketball Wives' Jackie Christie, Mob Wives' Drita D'Avanzo, RuPaul's Drag Race's Plane Jane, Love Island's Johnny Middlebrooks and The Challenge's Ashley Mitchell. Sandoval has yet to escape the full shadow that followed the revelation he had cheated on Ariana. In May, Madix said the pair still have not sold the home they bought together. 'You and Tom agreed to sell your shared home, what's the latest news?' Andy Cohen asked the Love Island USA host at the time, to which she responded, 'That is ongoing but hopefully wrapping up soon.' Tom Sandoval Thinks It's Time to 'Move On' from Scandoval: Did 'The Traitors' Kickstart His Redemption Era? The update came six months after Sandoval said he had agreed to sell the home after Madix took legal action in January 2024. According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly last year, Madix alleged there was 'discord' between Sandoval and herself, who are co-owners of the house. Sandoval had pushed to receive full ownership before agreeing to put the home on the market. Cohen asked Madix during her WWHL appearance whether she and Sandoval are 'cohabitating' as they continue to find a buyer, with Madix explaining that she now has her own separate house while Sandoval still 'lives there.' Us also confirmed in March 2024 that Madix bought a $1.6 million house that month.

All About David Corenswet's Wife, Julia Warner
Superman actor David Corenswet plays a man leading an epic double-life. The star has some experience there, because he keeps his off-screen world extremely private. Corenswet is married to his wife, Julia Best Warner, with whom he shares one child. But his Instagram is almost entirely promotion for the upcoming DC flick and he has shared very little info about his family. Here's everything that is known about Warner and her relationship with the superhero. Like Corenswet, Warner is an actor. Per her LinkedIn profile, she studied Fine Arts in Theater Arts Acting at Point Park University in Pittsburgh. According to her IMDb page, she has also tried her hand at producing and directing, and has credits with The Baby Sitters Pub, Ratched, and Pretty Little Things. In 2018, she wrote a tribute to her work at the Pittsburgh Playhouse. She seems to be close to her family, and posted about cutting down the family Christmas tree with other Warners in 2020. And she and Corenswet share a Cavalier King Charles spaniel named Ira: 'He's less of a doggy, more of a toddler,' Corenswet told People, adding that the seven-year-old dog 'has a wonderful mohawk, a natural tuft of hair right between his eyes, which is the reason he's disqualified from being shown [making him] adoptable.' According to an interview with People in June 2025, the pair met as teenagers at a Pennsylvania summer theater program and had a 'slow-burn' romance. They were married in March 2023. In 2022, Warner shared a carousel of pics that included Corenswet. Corenswet and Warner welcomed a daughter in 2024, though they have kept her name private. In his interview with People, Corenswet said, 'I feel like I've been a dad for a long time, and just waiting for a kid to prove it. My dad was an enthusiastic father and stayed home with my sister for a period when she was very little, and was very good with kids. And so I think I just inherited that. I liked being a camp counselor, and I have terrible jokes that nobody laughs at.' The baby arrived in close conjunction with the beginning of his Superman journey, prompting him to add, 'Two big unknown things at the same time. And they were both great things.'
