Ben Affleck ‘Uncomfortable' With Jennifer Garner, Ryan Reynolds' Growing Bond: Report

Last Updated: Jennifer grew close to Ryan Reynolds through director Shawn Levy, a mutual friend and the man behind Deadpool & Wolverine. Jennifer Garner is said to be spending more time with Ryan Reynolds, and not everyone is thrilled about it. Her ex-husband Ben Affleck isn't too happy about how close the two have become in recent months especially as they share more professional ties. According to National Enquirer, Affleck and his longtime friend Matt Damon don't exactly see Reynolds eye to eye. 'Let's just say up front that Ben and Matt are not friends with Ryan, and, in fact, [they] see him as something of a direct competitor, even though they have tons of mutual collaborators and even business team members in common," a source told the publication. Garner reportedly grew close to Reynolds through director Shawn Levy, a mutual friend and the man behind Deadpool & Wolverine. The source adds that Levy 'prides himself" on building creative connections, and with Reynolds and Hugh Jackman teaming up for an upcoming comedy. 'It's a safe bet that Jen is going to show up in that project," the source said. Garner recently stepped back into her role as Elektra with a short cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine and sources say she is excited about being part of that creative circle again. According to the insider, she finds the 'energy" around Reynolds and the rest of the team 'different" especially compared to what she experienced with Affleck and Damon. 'As Jen continues to cement her own Hollywood coalition, Ryan is a key player in all that," the source added. Though Garner and Affleck have kept a cordial relationship since their 2018 divorce and co-parent their children, the source notes that her new dynamic with Reynolds has left Affleck feeling uneasy. 'That's not comfortable for him, but he simply doesn't have any choice or say in the matter. He has to accept it!" the insider added. This development follows Affleck's recent divorce from Jennifer Lopez whom he married in 2022 after rekindling their early 2000s romance. Their split was finalised in January this year. As Affleck adjusts, he has reportedly been leaning on Garner for support. In December 2024, In Touch quoted a source saying, 'Ben leans on her for everything. 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." The insider also said, 'He goes to her whenever he has a big career or life decision to make for her advice." Affleck and Garner got married in 2005 and went their separate ways in 2018 after almost 13 years of marriage. The former couple share three children together: Violet Anne, Seraphina Rose and Samuel.

Is Ben Affleck ‘Insecure' of Jennifer Garner and Ryan Reynolds' Budding Friendship? Here's What We Know

Ben Affleck is allegedly feeling insecure about his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner's, budding friendship with Ryan Reynolds. According to the sources, Affleck and Matt Damon are not quite fond of The Proposal star and see him as their direct competition. According to the reports of National Enquirer, the actress, post her divorce from Affleck, has grown close to the Marvel star. The duo met through their common friend Shawn Levy and also shared the screen space in Deadpool & Wolverine. Garner portrayed the role of Elektra, while Reynolds reprised his iconic character of Deadpool. Is Jennifer Garner and Ryan Reynolds' friendship affecting Ben Affleck? In conversation with the media portal, a source close to Affleck revealed, 'Let's just say up front that Ben and Matt [Damon] are not friends with Ryan, and, in fact, [they] see him as something of a direct competitor, even though they have tons of mutual collaborators and even business team members in common.' Furthermore, they shared that Levy 'prides himself' on 'bringing people together' creatively. Moreover, with Reynolds and Hugh Jackman coming together for a comedy film, there are high chances that the 13 Going on 30 actress might join them. Elsewhere in the interview, the source continued to reveal, 'Frankly, she can't wait to get back together with those guys because the energy is so different from the world Ben and Matt have built around themselves. As Jen continues to cement her own Hollywood coalition, Ryan is a key player in all that.' Meanwhile, Garner and Affleck are continuing with their modern-style co-parenting, as they have managed to be cordial for their children, despite separating nearly six years ago. Even though the AIR actor is unhappy with Garner and Reynolds' growing closeness, he has no say in it. As for the Justice League star and his ex-wife's bond, an insider claims, 'Ben leans on her for everything. 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.' Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner married each other in the early 2000s and share three kids. The duo called it quits in 2018.

The sex act Gwyneth Paltrow loved performing with Ben Affleck revealed

That's some piping-hot tea. Page Six exclusively learned the sex act Gwyneth Paltrow allegedly enjoyed with her then-boyfriend Ben Affleck — but we're choosing not to name it. But those in the know won't be surprised that Affleck was into it; He does love Dunkin'. The Oscar winner revealed the bedroom secret to makeup artist Kevyn Aucoin, according to author Amy Odell in the forthcoming book 'Gwyneth: The Biography.' 'It was the ribald side of her that her friends knew well but that the public didn't see,' Odell writes. 'She told Kevyn Aucoin in his London hotel room one day after lunch that she loved when Affleck 'tea-b****d' her.' How do you like them apples? Reps for Paltrow and Affleck did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment. The 'Bounce' co-stars, both 52, dated from 1997 to 2000, and despite their sizzling attraction, may have split due to infidelity. 'Their physical chemistry couldn't overcome his self-destructive impulses, which may have even included cheating on her,' Odell writes, explaining that the duo began dating when Affleck was 'struggling with alcoholism and a gambling problem.' The author alleges that Paltrow's friends 'had reservations' about the 'Good Will Hunting' star because 'he didn't always reciprocate her affection. 'He at times seemed more interested in playing video games with the guys at his house than being with Gwyneth.' Paltrow has not been shy about shilling sexual products or exploring sexuality on Goop. The site famously sold a $75 'This Smells Like My Vagina' candle. After the now-discontinued candle's success, she followed it up with other candles dubbed 'This Smells Like My Orgasm' and 'This Smells Like My Prenup.' In 2023, the actress candidly answered fans' sex questions and revealed that 'generally,' she does not 'lick ass.' The 'Emma' star still looks back fondly on her sexy time with Affleck, calling him a 'technically excellent' lover in a 2023 interview. After their breakup, Paltrow went on to marry Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. They went on to have two children, a daughter, Apple, and a son, Moses, before splitting in 2016. She married producer Brad Falchuk in 2016. The 'Argo' star was married to Jennifer Garner from 2005 to 2018 and Jennifer Lopez from 2022 to 2025. 'Gwyneth: The Biography' hits shelves on July 29.

Jennifer Lopez has funny response to fan asking for hand in marriage

Jennifer Lopez is not looking to head down the aisle again anytime soon. During a stop in Spain during her Up All Night tour July 15, as seen in social media video, the singer spotted a fan sign that read: "JLo marry me." "I think I'm done with that," she said with a laugh, signaling a "no" with a neck-swipe gesture. "I've tried that a few times." Lopez is just coming off her divorce from Ben Affleck, which was finalized in January, after Lopez first filed on Aug. 20, 2024, the second anniversary of the estranged couple's Georgia wedding ceremony. The two were engaged to each other twice: first in 2002, then again in 2022. Lopez has been married four times: to then-waiter Ojani Noa, dancer Cris Judd, singer Marc Anthony – with whom she shares two children – and Affleck. Following tabloid rumors of their split, Lopez canceled her This Is Me... Live tour and announced she was "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends." She told comedian and TV host Nikki Glaser in an Interview magazine cover story after news of their divorce became public that the period was "probably the hardest time of my life." "There's times when I thought I figured it out, and then life goes, 'Let's send you another thing and see if you fall for it. Let's see if you really have learned that lesson,'" Lopez said in October. "And I hadn't. I understand that now in a much deeper way, which doesn't mean that I won't make mistakes in the future, but again, when your whole house blows up, you're standing there in the rubble going, 'How do I not ever let that happen again?'" Jennifer Garner, Ben Affleck reunite for family night at Boston Red Sox baseball game Affleck, 52, broke his silence on the divorce in March, telling GQ in an interview that he has "nothing but respect" for the singer and stressed that there was no single, dramatic event that ended their marriage. "There's no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue," he told the outlet. "The truth is, when you talk to somebody, 'Hey, what happened?' Well, there is no: 'This is what happened.'" But Affleck said that while there is "a tendency to look at breakups and want to identify root causes or something," the truth of his split from Lopez "is much more quotidian than probably people would believe or would be interesting."
