Lauren Weiler — Thu, 18 Jul 2024 00:13:37 +0000

Jennifer Garner is a stunning Hollywood beauty. While fans know and love her for her work and high-profile marriage to Ben Affleck, she prefers to live a quiet life. In July 2024, Garner stepped out in a beautiful Givenchy maxidress at the ESPY Awards. And it featured a surprise back that nobody would expect from the low-key 52-year-old.

Jennifer Garner is known for her work in movies and television, but she does a lot more outside of Hollywood. She’s one of the founding members of Angel City Football Club, a Los Angeles-based National Women’s Soccer League team that got its start in 2022. Other notable names attached to the group’s ownership include Natalie Portman, venture capitalist Kara Nortman, entrepreneur Julie Uhrman, and venture capitalist Alexis Ohanian, Serena Williams, Jessica Chastain, America Ferrera, and Eva Longoria.

On July 11, 2024, Garner presented and accepted the Sports Humanitarian Team of the Year award on behalf of Angel City FC at the 2024 ESPY (Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly) Awards.

The actor stunned in a black Givenchy maxidress Matthew M. Williams designed for the spring 2024 collection. The sleeveless silk crepe dress featured a high neckline with a simple silhouette that reached the floor. The back of the dress opened in a V shape, exposing Garner’s back.

Garner paired the dress with simple accessories: dangling geometric earrings and a silver bracelet. She wore her hair down in delicate waves. Garner also chose simple makeup: a soft, pink lip and minimal blush.

She’s a stickler for healthy skin and comfortable athleisure

Jennifer Garner has worn iconic looks through the years, especially for the characters she played. However, when it comes to her personal style, she prefers to keep it simple. Garner told Today that she swears by daily sunscreen to keep her skin looking fresh and young.

“You can’t uncook; you can’t ask your skin cells to forget what’s done,” she said. “What’s hard about your 20s and 30s is that the sun damage that you’re doing shows up when you’re older. It’s like, take care of future you.” She included a quote from dermatologist Dr. Doris Day: “Nothing looks better in your 50s than sunscreen in your 20s.”

Garner doesn’t wear fancy clothing for everyday wear. She’s often seen running around Los Angeles in Spanx or Alo Yoga high-waisted leggings. For athletic sneakers, she loves Brooks Ghost 15s.

“I am devoted to my Brooks,” Garner said on Today. “Sometimes, I have little dalliances with other brands … but for working out, for HIIT, I’ve been running some; so, for running, it’s Brooks for me all the way.”

Jennifer Garner has been in the media for allegedly helping Ben Affleck with his and Jennifer Lopez’s marital issues

Jennifer Garner prefers to stay out of the spotlight, as she received a lot of media attention for her marriage and divorce from Ben Affleck. Affleck’s current marital issues with Jennifer Lopez bring Garner back into the eye of the storm. Affleck reportedly heads over to Garner’s place to consult about his failing marriage. The exes retained a friendship post-divorce, as they also share three kids.

Garner reportedly “wants the best” for Affleck, no matter what that means for his future with Lopez. “She wants him happy and healthy so he can be the best dad possible,” a source told People, adding that Garner “likes that [Lopez] lives a healthy lifestyle and supports Ben’s sobriety. Jen wants that for Ben.”

Jennifer Lopez Allegedly Threw a ‘Huge Fit’ When Ben Affleck Moved His Belongings Out of the House, Source Says

Lauren Weiler — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 20:37:50 +0000

Multiple sources close to the couple say Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly headed for divorce. Lopez and Affleck tied the knot in 2022 and had their second wedding anniversary in July 2024. Unfortunately, they didn’t spend the day together. They also publicly listed their Beverly Hills mansion for sale the same month. A source claims that Lopez threw a “huge fit” when Affleck moved his belongings out of the home.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly experiencing serious marital strain that’s likely to end in divorce. The couple experienced relationship conflict in the past, as they got engaged in 2002 before ending it in 2004. While they fell back in love in 2021 and tied the knot in 2022, all signs point to divorce in 2024.

Lopez and Affleck reportedly no longer live together. The couple owns a $60 million Beverly Hills mansion, but Affleck has lived in a $100,000 monthly rental for months.

“Ben continues to live at the Brentwood rental. He’s been there for about two months now,” a source told People. “He seems OK. He’s been at his office every day and seems focused on work. He’s also spending time with his kids.”

In July 2024, the couple publicly listed the mansion for sale. Another source told People that Affleck moved his belongings out of the Beverly Hills home while Lopez spent time in Europe in June 2024. An insider told In Touch Weekly that Affleck feels “anxious” about where he and Lopez stand after Lopez allegedly threw a “huge fit” about him moving his things.

“Ben never expected J. Lo to embrace his decision to leave,” the source said, according to Yahoo. “He knew it would be tough for her, but the more time that’s gone on, the more fearful he’s gotten about how she’s going to react once it’s officially done. The way she’s insisted on them wearing their rings and doing all this damage control, to her huge fit over him moving his stuff out, has got him really anxious.”

The insider added that Lopez wants Affleck to continue to wear his wedding ring until they finalize their divorce.

Million Dollar Listing: Los Angeles realtor Josh Flagg told People that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck publicly listing their Beverly Hills mansion must mean they want to sell it as quickly as possible. They bought the property for $60,850,000 in May 2023 and listed it for $68 million. Because the selling price is “relatively close to what they paid for it,” the couple likely “really want[s] to move the property.”

Flagg added that Lopez and Affleck likely won’t make much money from the sale. They might even “take a small loss.”

“Generally, people do not sell their primary residence a year after they buy it unless there is a divorce, a death, or some kind of desperation,” he said.

Will Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck stay in Los Angeles?

If Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck divorce and sell their home, where will they live?

Ben Affleck has ties to Los Angeles due to the three children he shares with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. Affleck’s current rental is just a few blocks from Garner. It seems likely that he will stay in the area.

As for Lopez, several reports claim she might move back to the East Coast. “Even before things went totally south with Ben, she was pushing for a full-time move to New York, and now she’s decided to go ahead with that after the split,” a source told In Touch Weekly. “… She’ll probably keep a place in LA, but she needs to get away from all the noise and the scrutiny on the West Coast.”

Jennifer Lopez Loved This Line in Ben Affleck’s Wedding Vows: ‘I Thought … How Perfect’

Lauren Weiler — Tue, 16 Jul 2024 21:45:06 +0000

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are among Hollywood’s most talked-about couples in 2024. The lovers tied the knot in 2022 after first falling in love in the early 2000s. They first got engaged in 2002 but ended the engagement two years later. When they fell back in love nearly 20 years later, they had two weddings: a small one in Las Vegas and a larger one for family and friends at Affleck’s estate. Here’s what Lopez thought of Affleck’s wedding vows when she first heard them.

Jennifer Lopez said she loved this line that Ben Affleck included in his wedding vows

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have a love story that fans will never forget. The couple fell in love, went their separate ways, and fell in love with each other again nearly 20 years later. They tied the knot at A Little White Wedding Chapel on Saturday, July 16, 2022, with two witnesses: Lopez’s 14-year-old daughter, Emme, and one of Affleck’s three kids.

A month after the quick wedding in Las Vegas, the couple had another wedding for family and friends at Affleck’s home in Georgia. Affleck’s buddy, Kevin Smith, attended the event and discussed how Affleck’s “big speech” was “breathtaking.”

“And it was long,” Smith told People. “That’s one of my favorite things about Ben; he’s his own biggest fan, so he wrote, like, a 12-page speech. I was like, ‘Keep talking, keep talking.'”

Lopez wrote about the Georgia wedding in her newsletter to fans. In the newsletter, she described her favorite line that Affleck used in a film and also in his wedding vows.

“‘This is heaven. Right Here. We’re in it now.’ That is one of my favorite lines that Ben wrote from a movie he directed called Live By Night. He also said it the night of our wedding reception in his speech, and I thought … how perfect,” she explained.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had full speeches prepared for their Georgia wedding. However, when it came to their Las Vegas wedding, they didn’t want any bells and whistles. Ryan Wolfe, the lead pastor at Grace Christian Center of Las Vegas, told People that he was closing for the night when Lopez and Affleck entered. He didn’t realize they were a famous couple at first.

When it came to the wedding, Affleck and Lopez didn’t want anything fancy.

“She walked down the aisle to the regular ‘Here Comes the Bride’ processional, and she had flowers and he had a boutonnière on,” Wolfe explained. ” … Their kids took pictures during the wedding, and then I set up Ben’s phone there in the chapel, and they videoed the ceremony. There was no professional photographer.”

The couple had speeches prepared, and they shared their loving words.

“They had their own words, and they were beautiful words to each other,” Wolfe said. “It was an emotional moment they shared with one another. You can definitely see the love that they have for each other.”

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck chose not to spend their anniversary together amid divorce rumors

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are allegedly headed for divorce in 2024. The couple has incompatibilities they can’t seem to get past. While they haven’t officially announced the end of their marriage, their fans are anxiously waiting to see what happens next.

Lopez and Affleck didn’t spend their anniversary together in July 2024. Affleck is currently in Los Angeles while Lopez is in the Hamptons in New York. A source told Entertainment Tonight that the couple is purposely spending time apart.

“Jen and Ben have been trying to focus on their loved ones while spending time apart,” the source claimed. “Jen and Ben are both keeping their kids and respective families at the forefront of their minds as they move through these changes.”

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s Wedding Anniversary Looks a Lot Different in 2024

Lauren Weiler — Tue, 16 Jul 2024 16:05:33 +0000

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have reportedly hit a rough patch in their marriage. The couple tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2022 and celebrated their first wedding anniversary in 2023. Unfortunately, their wedding anniversary seems to look a lot different in 2024. Here’s what to know about the couple’s second anniversary and what they’re up to.

Jennifer Lopez posted a sweet tribute in 2023 to Ben Affleck to commemorate their wedding anniversary

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have a beautiful love story that spans decades. The couple fell in love after meeting on the set of Gigli in the early 2000s. While they got engaged in 2002, they broke off their engagement in 2004 and went on to have other relationships and marriages. Affleck and Lopez rekindled their flame in 2021 and finally tied the knot in 2002. However, by mid-2024, reports claimed that the couple was looking toward a possible divorce, as they had severe incompatibilities they couldn’t work through.

Lopez and Affleck have yet to address the divorce rumors as of their second wedding anniversary on July 16, 2024. And the couple seems to be spending the day on opposite coasts. Affleck appears to still be in Los Angeles, while Lopez has stayed in the Hamptons in New York since the Fourth of July.

So, what did the couple do for their first wedding anniversary? Just Jared reported that Lopez wore a white mini-dress when she and Affleck went out to dinner on July 16, 2023, at the Italian restaurant Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California.

In August 2023, Lopez posted a sweet tribute to Affleck for their anniversary. While the couple tied the knot in Vegas in July, they had another wedding for family and friends at Affleck’s Georgia estate a month later.

Lopez posted photos from their second wedding on Instagram with the quote:

“One year ago today …

Dear Ben,

Sitting here alone
Looking at my ring ring
Feeling overwhelmed
It makes me wanna sing sing
How did we end up here
Without a rewind
Oh my
This is my life …

Jennifer.”

They’re reportedly ‘trying to focus on their loved ones’ and likely spending time apart in 2024

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck seem to hope to stay out of the spotlight on their second wedding anniversary in 2024. While Lopez could wait until August 2024 to post about the anniversary, the couple is reportedly “focusing on their loved ones” during this time instead of each other.

“Jen and Ben have been trying to focus on their loved ones while spending time apart,” a source told Entertainment Tonight. “Jen and Ben are both keeping their kids and respective families at the forefront of their minds as they move through these changes.”

The source added that the couple hopes to present themselves “in a positive way” for the good of their blended family. Lopez has twins, while Affleck shares three children with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.

Despite reports of a rift, fans noticed that Lopez had her wedding ring displayed in a July 2024 Instagram story.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck shared an ’emotional moment’ on their wedding day

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had a joyous wedding day. Ryan Wolfe, the lead pastor at Grace Christian Center of Las Vegas, told People that the couple shared an “emotional moment” while sharing their vows.

“You can definitely see the love that they have for each other,” he said.

Wolfe added that the couple wanted a “regular wedding” without all the bells and whistles.

“At the end of the ceremony, they were almost giddy excited, jumping around,” Wolfe continued. “You could tell [the two kids] also were close, had a good relationship, really liked each other. They were very excited and you could tell they really were happy.”

Jennifer Lopez Leaves Massive Tip on Ice Cream After Reports of Trying to ‘Improve Her Public Image’

Lauren Weiler — Tue, 16 Jul 2024 00:15:32 +0000

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck seem closer to announcing a divorce than ever. The couple fell in love in the early 2000s but ended the engagement in 2004. In 2021, they fell back in love before tying the knot in 2022. Unfortunately, their romance might be fleeting yet again. Lopez recently left a massive tip on an ice cream cone as rumors suggest she’s trying to rehab her “public image.”

Jennifer Lopez left a $50 tip on ice cream in the Hamptons

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have allegedly been heading toward divorce for months. The couple fell back in love in 2021 and quickly tied the knot with a Vegas wedding in 2022. However, they allegedly have serious incompatibilities. Lopez and Affleck publicly listed their mansion for sale in July 2024 after reports that Affleck now prefers to live in a rental unit alone, furthering the split rumors.

Lopez and Affleck didn’t spend the Fourth of July together. While Affleck stayed in Los Angeles, Lopez reportedly spent time in the Hamptons in New York. As of July 15, 2024, she remains in the Hamptons.

Page Six reports that Lopez stopped by A La Mode ice cream shop in East Hampton during the Fourth of July weekend. “She got a mini cone with sprinkles and was very friendly to everyone,” a source said, adding that Lopez left a generous $50 tip on her purchase.

In the past, Lopez was called out for alleged rude behavior to service industry professionals and those who worked for her. Emily Watford, a worker at an arena Lopez performed at, recalled Lopez’s inexcusable rudeness.

“What was bad was that a doorman looked at her, and apparently she hates when staff look at her,” Watford posted online, according to OK! Magazine. “So, she started yelling at her whoever about it, in front of the doorman like he wasn’t there. He said, so much for Jenny From the Block. Well, she got him fired.”

Jennifer Lopez is under scrutiny due to the divorce rumors looming over her and Ben Affleck. She also received criticism for canceling her 2024 tour. Lopez claimed she canceled the tour to spend time with her family.

“Everyone in J.Lo’s circle feels it’s pretty unfair that she’s the one getting all the blame in this,” a source told In Touch Weekly, according to Yahoo. “You just have to look at the way Ben’s been behaving to see the sort of anger issues he’s got. No doubt J.Lo is quite pleased people are starting to get a glimpse of who Ben really is.”

The source added that Lopez hopes to “improve her public image” and wants to “highlight” her “down-to-earth side” amid reports of a diva attitude.

“Right now, Jennifer is just focused on getting her body back into the best shape possible and her career back on track with new projects and being the best mom she can be,” the source added. “She’s also making a concerted effort to improve her public image. It’s no secret that she can be quite the diva, but she also has a very down-to-earth side and wants to highlight that.”

A PR expert says Jennifer Lopez would be under ‘harsher scrutiny’ than Ben Affleck in the event of a divorce

PR expert Lauren Beeching told The Sun that Jennifer Lopez should expect “harsher scrutiny” than Ben Affleck in the event of a divorce. Beeching noted that Lopez’s “biggest fear” would be seeing “rumors” on social media regarding her marriage.

“If there is a divorce, her image and brand might suffer negative publicity, impacting sales and partnerships,” Beeching explained. “Jennifer should focus on maintaining her image throughout this process. Jennifer could shift the narrative from her relationship status to reminding the public that she is J.Lo.”

Lauren Weiler — Mon, 15 Jul 2024 23:17:00 +0000

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have a friendship that spans decades, as they were close as kids before they became famous. Damon has seen Affleck through his ups and downs. In 2024, rumors are swirling that Affleck and his wife of two years, Jennifer Lopez, are headed for a divorce. Here’s what a source said about Damon encouraging Affleck to stay close to Affleck’s ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, during tough times.

Matt Damon is allegedly ‘pushing’ Ben Affleck to maintain a good relationship with Jennifer Garner amid divorce rumors

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s friendship extends far past their Hollywood years. The dynamic duo has acted in critically acclaimed films together and advocates for one another. In 2024, Affleck made headlines due to his alleged marital troubles with Jennifer Lopez. While Lopez and Affleck have an enviable love story that spans decades, they’re reportedly headed for divorce after two years of marriage.

Several sources claim that Affleck is leaning on his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, for help. Affleck and Garner have three kids together and live close by. They maintained a friendship post-divorce. Garner has seen Affleck at his worst and reportedly doesn’t want him to head back into alcohol dependency amid his current issues.

“Matt’s No. 1 priority right now is keeping Ben out of trouble,” a source told In Touch Weekly regarding Damon and Affleck. “The last thing anyone wants is for Ben to turn to alcohol again. Matt has straight out told him that relapse is not an option.”

The source added that Damon is “pushing” Affleck to remain close to Garner. “She’s always been a calming influence on Ben,” the source continued, “which is why Matt’s pushing Ben to stay super close to her and their three kids.”

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have remained friends through the easy and challenging times in their lives. While Damon loves and supports his best friend, another source told In Touch Weekly in June 2024 that he and his wife preferred to spend time with their celebrity couple friends, John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, to stay out of the drama.

“When it comes to couples’ time, there’s just a lot less drama for Matt and Lucy when they’re hanging out with Emily Blunt and John Krasinski than during the increasingly rare times that they get to sit down and hang out with Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez,” Yahoo reports the insider claimed. “Just because of the way Jennifer conducts herself, even around her friends, she’s a very hard person to let your guard down around, whereas John and Emily are the definition of easygoing.”

Jennifer Lopez is spending a lot of time with Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s oldest daughter without them

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have not publicly acknowledged the divorce rumors as of July 2024. The couple didn’t spend the Fourth of July together, with Affleck in Los Angeles and Lopez in the Hamptons. However, Lopez reportedly spends a lot of time with Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s daughter, Violet, 18. Lopez and her stepdaughter were spotted with their arms around each other in Southampton, New York, on July 15, 2024, according to Page Six. Affleck remained on the West Coast.

In the past, Garner allegedly approved of Lopez after seeing her with her kids. “Now that Jen and Jen have been co-parenting, they’ve been getting to know each other better and have formed a very new friendship,” a source told Us Weekly. “She fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy.”

‘The Bachelorette’ Season 21 spoilers: Who goes home in the second rose ceremony?

The Bachelorette Season 21 spoilers are here for episode 2. The episode begins with Jenn Tran and her remaining 18 men heading to Melbourne, Australia. A preview posted to Instagram shows everyone at the airport excited about their next adventure.

“We’re not in LA anymore, baby!” Jenn says in a voiceover as the guys get ready for travel.

Once the men and Jenn are in Australia, she makes even more meaningful connections. The preview shows her meeting native Australian animals with some of her men and skydiving during a one-on-one date. One of the group dates involves the men getting “roasted” at a comedy event. Later, drama erupts between Devin Strader and Thomas Nguyen. Devin tells one of the men that they “embarrassed” themselves.

“I’m here for someone who’s willing to put me in front of the drama,” Jenn tells the cameras.

The episode ends with a rose ceremony. Jenn sends three men home: Brian Autz, Jahaan Ansari, and Marvin Goodly.

The 15 men remaining after The Bachelorette Season 21 second rose ceremony are Aaron Erb, Austin Ott, Brian Autz, Devin Strader, Dylan Buckor, Grant Ellis, Jeremy Simon, John Mitchell, Jonathon Johnson, Marcus Shoberg, Sam McKinney, Sam Nejad, Spencer Conley, Thomas Nguyen, and Tomas Azzano.

The date is at the St. Kilda’s Sports Club during the Melbourne Comedy Festival. Bec Charlwood, an Australian comic, hosts the event for the men.

The preview posted to Instagram shows Aaron calling Devin out for looking like a “budget Pete Davidson.” While the joke gets a lot of laughs from the other men, Jenn doesn’t award Aaron the group date rose. Instead, she gives it to Grant — one of the men with whom she had an early physical connection.

The next group date involves nine men: Austin Ott, Dylan Buckor, Hakeem Moulton, Jahaan Ansari, John Mitchell, Sam McKinney, Spencer Conley, Thomas Nguyen, and Tomas Azzano. They head to the zoo with Jenn to meet Australia’s local wildlife, also seen in the preview. Jenn gives her rose to Dylan.

The Bachelorette Season 21 spoilers are here for the remainder of the season. Fans can’t wait to see Jenn Tran make connections with her men and fall in love. Jenn’s post-show interviews make it sound like she left the show engaged and happy. She also told former Bachelor Nation star Kaitlyn Bristowe that her season had never happened in the show’s history.

“I think I’m also being told that the ending of my season is also something that has never happened before,” Jenn said at CMA Fest, according to Us Weekly.

So, what goes down at the end of the season? According to Reality Steve’s spoilers, Marcus Shoberg and Devin Strader are the final two men in Hawaii for the finale. The spoiler guru said in a YouTube video that he’s heard of the surprise ending, and he can confirm that the exact scenario hasn’t happened in the past.

“Obviously, the show is promoting, ‘Oh my God, there’s something that happens this season … that’s never happened in the history of the world,'” Steve said. “I can say, for the first time, I have heard something about what this could be. If what I heard is true … has it happened before? No. A version of it has happened before, but this particular thing, if we’re getting into semantics, no. But, again, I’m not going to throw something out there that I don’t have confirmation on.”

Reality Steve says Jenn Tran looks like she’s smiling while rejecting someone during the finale

Another video from Reality Steve shows him dissecting The Bachelorette Season 21 finale. Steve shows the finale clip that viewers saw during the premiere. The clip shows Jenn Tran rejecting someone.

“I can’t let you propose to me,” Jenn tells the mystery man during the finale.

Steve notes that Jenn’s body language doesn’t match her words. “At no point is she sad,” he says. “At no point is she crying. … It almost looks like she’s about to crack a smile. She’s holding a smile in.”

Some fans suspect that Jenn proposes to the man, so she tells him he can’t propose to her.

“At that rose ceremony at the end when she’s looking at the guy saying she doesn’t think want him to propose to her, why she [is] smiling a little is because she’s going to propose to him,” a fan commented.

Jenn Tran says she’s ‘very happy’ with how her season ends

Jenn Tran told Extra that she’s “very happy” with how The Bachelorette Season 21 ends and has no “regrets” about what happened.

“I don’t have any regrets about anything,” Jenn says. “I’m really excited for people to kind of see my journey because I’m so proud of it. I’m so proud of the way everything came out.”

Jenn added that filming was the “best two months” of her life. “I feel like I’m in this new era of myself,” she said. I feel so confident; I feel more myself than ever.”

The Bachelorette Season 21 airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

Why Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s Kids Call Her ‘The Dragon’

Lauren Weiler — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 13:46:00 +0000

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck seemed like the perfect Hollywood couple. They were married for over a decade before calling it quits, and they have three kids together. Garner and Affleck now live close to each other so Affleck can see his three children often. And it turns out that the famous parents have very different parenting styles. Here’s what Garner said about her kids calling her “the dragon.”

Jennifer Garner said she and Ben Affleck’s kids call her ‘the dragon’ because of her strictness

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are no longer married but remain friendly post-divorce. The couple has three kids: Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12. While Ben Affleck’s current marital struggles with Jennifer Lopez have dominated the headlines, he’s often seen spending time with his children in Los Angeles.

Affleck might be a fun parent compared to Garner. In 2020, while speaking on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Garner explained that her kids call her “the dragon” because of her strict rules.

“If you’re like me, I kill the fun,” Garner admitted. “I am so lame. They call me the dragon; they have all these names for me.”

Because Garner always tells her kids “no,” she says that one day a year, she “says yes” to any request. She calls it “Yes Day.”

“Yes. We want pizza with ice cream for breakfast, or with toothpaste. Yeah,” she laughed. “I do it. Yes, I have for years.”

Garner noted that her kids have different ideas of what “Yes Day” entails because of their age differences. “They have to agree, because it’s just one day,” she explained. “So, the one thing that they can agree on is basically making an a** out of me.”

Ben Affleck said it was ‘hard and stressful’ to parent post-divorce

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck continue to put their kids first in their lives post-divorce. The exes remain friendly and regularly see each other in 2024, with Affleck frequently stopping by Garner’s home. However, transitioning from married to divorced parents wasn’t easy for Affleck. Affleck told People that being a divorced, working dad presented challenges.

“So, I’m trying to fit a whole week of dad into three and a half days, [it’s] hard and stressful,” he said in 2021. “My standards really changed. I don’t want to go travel and do something if it’s not really rewarding and meaningful. Yeah, I have to work. The kids know I have to work. Their mom has to work. They understand that. But it’s not like I’m some martyr for my kids. I get more out of it than anything else.”

Despite the challenges, Affleck maintains that Garner is a fantastic mother. “Jen is a superhero mom,” he said in 2016, a year after their split and two years before finalizing their divorce. “She is an amazing mother and I’m really lucky to have her as a partner to co-parent these kids with. We try our best, we put them first and that’s what we do.”

Taylor Swift Will Likely Name Her and Travis Kelce’s Child After Her Grandmother, Experts Bet

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have dated for about a year and seem ultra-serious regarding their future. Some sources claim they have already discussed an engagement and a future wedding. So, what about kids? Here’s what experts predicted regarding the name of Swift and Kelce’s first child if they have children.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will likely name their first child after Swift’s grandmother, experts believe

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have an excellent relationship that appears to be going the distance. And fans fully expect them to get married and start a family. Swift and Kelce haven’t publicly mentioned having children together just yet. However, if they take a break from their careers to raise children, sports traders at Sportscasting.com think they know what the couple will name their first child.

According to the experts, there’s a 14.3% chance that Swift and Kelce will name their first child “Marjorie” if it’s a girl. Swift’s grandmother was named Marjorie, and the pop star wrote a song in her honor. If Swift and Kelce have a baby boy, there’s a 12.5% chance they will name him Edward or Scott.

“Marjorie Swift might have an old-fashioned twang to it, but this is a name we could be seeing a lot more of if Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have a baby girl,” Sportscasting.com spokesman Andy Newton said. “This is because the oddsmakers are predicting Swift is favorite to name her first girl after her grandmother, who was a big inspiration for her getting into music.

“If it’s a boy, the betting experts are also suggesting it will be another family theme with both Edward and Scott big fancies due to these being the names of Swift and Kelce’s fathers,” Newton continued. “Scottie Swift has a nice ring to it, and if he ends up following his dad into American football, he’ll need to be fast with a name like that!”

Other popular baby name guesses include Kingsley (11.1% chance), Travis (11.1% chance), Donna (10% chance), Gardner (10% chance), or Andrea (10% chance).

Taylor Swift finds it ‘really emotional’ to sing ‘Marjorie’

Taylor Swift wrote her song, “Marjorie,” about her grandmother Marjorie Finlay. Finlay won a talent contest on the ABC network show Music With the Girls and became an American opera singer. Swift sampled her grandmother’s singing on the track.

“The experience of writing that song was really surreal because I was kind of a wreck at times writing it,” Swift explained in a YouTube clip. “I would sort of break down sometimes. It was really hard to actually even sing it in the vocal booth without sounding like I had sort of break, because it just was really emotional.”

“I think that one of the hardest forms of regret to sort of work through is the regret of sort of being so young when you lost someone that you didn’t have the perspective to learn and appreciate who they are,” Swift reflected.

Travis Kelce allegedly wants to have multiple children with his famous girlfriend

Travis Kelce allegedly wants to have a big family with Taylor Swift. A source told Life & Style that Kelce might want to have kids before he and Swift tie the knot.

“Travis is eager to speed up their relationship timeline,” the source said in April 2024. “He wants to marry Taylor right away and start a family as soon as she’s ready. Travis has been so broody that he’s told Taylor he’s open to having kids before a wedding!”

The source added that Kelce’s “fatherly instincts kick in” when he spends time with his nieces. “Travis is going to be an amazing dad,” they said.
