Ben Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner had recently been spotted together, and since then, Jennifer Lopez has kept her guard up.

According to those closest to the Latin superstar who spoke to Life & Style magazine, the "Jenny From the Block" hitmaker harbors a certain level of envy concerning how tenderly he interacts with his estranged wife.

The source revealed that her envy concerning Ben and his ex-wife's relationship is powerful.

Allegedly, JLo was unaware just how close they still were, despite their divorce years ago - and it has created a rift between herself and Ben as he spends more time with his ex-wife than she is comfortable with.

This has provoked a heated argument between them over how much contact they have with one another.

Tension between the two Hollywood actresses had been building, and it seemed no one else was immune to the clash.

According to an insider, Jennifer Lopez ensured her feelings about Jennifer Garner's relationship with Ben Affleck were well known.

"JLo and Jen exchanged texts about Jen's closeness to Ben, and things got heated," the source spilled.

Unfortunately, the once close dynamic between Jennifer Lopez and her husband has deteriorated to a point where their blended family gatherings had to be called off.

The insider revealed that the Texas native is undoubtedly not the only one receiving the "Hustlers" actress' rage-filled wrath. "Whenever she gets jealous or feels threatened, Ben bears the brunt of her anger," they stated.

The source reported that JLo is reportedly unhappy with how much the "Gone Girl" actor spends with his ex-wife.

It has been claimed that the "On The Floor" singer let out a mighty yell at Ben, shouting out, "She's your ex-wife for a reason!"

Though Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner may not have a romantic relationship anymore, the former couple still has a strong bond.

According to an unknown source, Ben often turns to Jennifer Garner for counsel on multiple topics. They share three children, Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel, aged 17, 14, and 11, respectively, and Ben continues to value Jen's opinion like never before.

In response to the speculation by JLo, many fans expressed shock and dismay at how seemingly comfortable Ben and his ex-wife looked during their car ride.

To put it lightly, people aren't very pleased with Ben Affleck's recent behavior, but he still spends plenty of time with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.

This has caused a stir among the public - one social media user wasn't afraid to express their disapproval of the situation: "Do you know how stupid this man is making her look? B. A. got J."

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner still need to finish flaunting their relationship in front of JLo.

In the last 2.5 years, no pictures were taken of them together, but suddenly, they have been photographed twice in the past couple of weeks and even had a meetup in Italy.

This must be pretty disheartening for "poor JLo," and they are prompting many to wonder when the Bennifer divorce announcement will come out.

Still, it's best to take this report with a grain of salt.
