Description

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are trying to do everything they can to make their divorce as easy as possible for their kids. 


The estranged couple enjoyed a 'fun lunch' with their children at the Beverly Hills Hotel's Polo Lounge on Saturday, according to a source who spoke to People.  


'They all came together for a fun lunch so the kids could hang out,' the insider told the outlet, explaining that Lopez, 55, is 'trying to be friendly with Ben,' 52.


Lopez's twins, Emme and Max, 16, whom she shares with ex Marc Anthony, were there with Affleck's youngest kids, Fin, 15 and Sam, 12, whom she shares with former wife Jennifer Garner. His oldest, Violent 18, was not there as she is attending Yale University. 


The insider seemed to credit Lopez with trying to keep the transition smooth.


'A divorce is never easy, but Jennifer doesn't want to be selfish about it. The kids always got along and have fun together. It makes her happy seeing the kids happy together. Happy kids are her priority,' the source claimed. 


The pair, who married in July 2022 in Las Vegas and had a more formal ceremony at Affleck's home in Georgia a month later, tied the knot with no pre-nuptial agreement. 


According to her divorce filing Lopez who filed the papers herself, citing 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for the split.


Lopez, who changed her last name to Affleck after the marriage, wants her last name, Lopez, legally restored.
