00:00Inside the Ben Affleck-Jen Garner and J.Lo love triangle.

00:03This is weird.

00:04Jennifer Garner is caught in the middle of one of the most bizarre love triangles

00:08Hollywood has seen in years.

00:10Ever since she was spotted getting extra cozy with Ben Affleck during a paintball outing,

00:15rumors have been swirling that she might just take him back.

00:17And honestly, can we blame her for at least considering it?

00:21After all, Ben seems to run straight to Jennifer Garner

00:24every time his personal life crumbles.

00:26But here's the catch.

00:27While some insiders claim Jennifer has zero romantic interest in rekindling things with

00:31her ex, others aren't so sure.

00:33And if Ben is trying to get back with her, where does that leave Jennifer Lopez?

00:37J.Lo is totally fine.

00:38She's having the time of her life filming her new Netflix rom-com

00:41Office Romance with Brett Goldstein.

00:44And she's more than happy to move on.

00:46But the real story?

00:47Sources say she's actually devastated.

00:50She's keeping it together publicly.

00:52But she's told everyone around her not to trash Ben, an insider revealed.

00:57She doesn't want to get down in the dirt with him.

00:59So if she's really as unbothered as people are saying,

01:02why is she reportedly furious over Affleck's closeness with Garner?

01:06And why are there whispers that Ben has been reaching out to her again?

01:10Could it be that J.Lo isn't as over Ben as she's pretending to be?

01:14While sources insist that both Jennifers have learned their lesson with Ben,

01:18others say it's not that simple.

01:20One insider claimed,

01:21Who wants the guy?

01:22You think he's the prize?

01:24No way.

01:25It's like,

01:26Next.

01:27Ouch.

01:27But let's not forget history.

01:29J.Lo may have been left alone when Ben called off their wedding in 2003,

01:34but she still took him back nearly 20 years later.

01:37And Jennifer Garner?

01:39She's been Ben's safety net for years,

01:41driving him to rehab,

01:43supporting him despite their divorce,

01:46and always keeping things civil for the sake of their kids.

01:49If past behavior is any indicator,

01:51Ben knows he can fall back on both women,

01:54and that might be exactly what he's trying to do.

01:56For years, J.Lo has been painted as the high-maintenance diva who drove Ben away.

02:02But what if it was actually Ben who was the problem all along?

02:06According to one insider,

02:07Affleck is a master manipulator.

02:09The dirty secret is that he's the diva.

02:12He's the one who likes attention and calls the paps and manipulates women.

02:16They said,

02:17He love-switches you and once he's got you,

02:20he gets bored and leaves.

02:21It's cruel.

02:23And let's not forget,

02:24this is a man who had an affair with his children's nanny.

02:27If Jennifer Garner or J.Lo were expecting a fairytale ending,

02:32they should have known better.

02:33Ben first met Jennifer Garner on the set of Pearl Harbor in 2000,

02:37but at the time,

02:38he was falling hard for J.Lo on the set of Jiggly.

02:42They got engaged in 2002,

02:44but Ben pulled the plug before the wedding in 2003.

02:47After J.Lo rebounded with Marc Anthony and had twins,

02:51while Ben cozied up to Jennifer Garner,

02:54marrying her in 2005 and having three children together.

02:58Then in classic Ben Affleck fashion,

03:00he wrecked it all by cheating with the nanny.

03:03Jennifer Garner stood by him as he had to change his habits.

03:07But by 2018,

03:08it was over.

03:09That same year,

03:10Ben started publicly swooning over J.Lo again.

03:13And before we knew it,

03:14they were married in 2022.

03:17That lasted about two years before history repeated itself

03:20and Ben ran back to Jennifer Garner.

03:22If this sounds like a soap opera,

03:24that's because it basically is.

03:26Ben's actions since splitting from J.Lo say it all.

03:29He moved out of their $68 million Beverly Hills mansion

03:33and bought a $20 million home right around the corner

03:36from Jennifer Garner.

03:38Convenient?

03:39Very.

03:40And now with all the cozy photos of Ben and Jennifer Garner resurfacing,

03:45the speculation won't stop.

03:47Some fans are begging her not to take him back,

03:49warning that he's just stringing her along again.

03:52But others?

03:53They think she's already too deep in the cycle to walk away.

03:56As for J.Lo,

03:57insiders say she's finally done with Ben for good.

04:00But another source isn't so sure.

04:02I hate to say it,

04:04they admitted,

04:05but I can see J.Lo taking him back a third time.

04:08And honestly?

04:09At this point,

04:10nothing would surprise us.
