The relationship between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is not going through its best moment. It is already an open secret that their marriage is in crisis.

What was not so well known, until now, was the person who would be helping the couple to stay together and also that the actor does not have problems with alcohol addiction.

It is, as reported by the Daily Mail citing sources around him, Jennifer Garner, actress and ex-partner of Affleck.

As the British newspaper explains, Lopez believes that Garner can be a perfect ally at this time. According to the singer, the actress knows better than anyone the situation she is going through, so her support is key to redirect her marriage with Affleck, in low hours. The aforementioned media reports that Affleck‘s ex visited him at his home in Brentwood.

“Garner is one of the few people in the world who understands what Jennifer Lopez is going through. The circumstances (with the actress) were different, but he is still the same man and they faced similar problems,” explained one of the sources of the Daily Mail.

In addition, this medium has assured that the two women have suspicions that Affleck could be close to return to drinking.

Garner, for her part, is worried about Ben Affleck. The actress, who is married to businessman John Miller, is, according to sources consulted by the Daily Mail, one of the few people who can prevent Affleck from falling into his alcohol addiction again and, moreover, does not want him to break his relationship with Jennifer Lopez.

In the article, Garner is referred to as a “stabilizing force”.
