Ben Affleck 'Has Not Been in Touch' with Jennifer Lopez's Kids (Exclusive Source)

Lopez shares twins Max and Emme, 16, with ex Marc Anthony, and Affleck shares Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, with ex Jennifer Garner

Amid Jennifer Lopez's divorce from Ben Affleck, Lopez has remained close with Affleck's children, but he has not been in contact with hers, according to a source.

The source tells PEOPLE that the Hustlers actress, 55, often spoke of what a good father the Good Will Hunting actor, 52, is to his kids, Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, whom he shares with exJennifer Garner.

"[Jennifer] went out there and told the world what a great dad he was," they say.

Lopez herself is a mom to 16-year-old twins Max and Emme, whom she shares with ex Marc Anthony.

The “Jenny from the Block” singer is “still close to Garner and all five kids,” the source says. The Gone Girl actor, meanwhile, is “close to his three kids” but “has not been in touch with her kids.”

“The fact that he has not seen her kids in a long time, it’s like he left, but she is especially close to his kids,” the source continues, citing Lopez’s attendance at Samuel’s graduation ceremony in June and Violet spending a week with the singer during her Hamptons vacation in July.

“But she's also close to Marc's kids from [his] previous relationship,” the source adds of the four children the “Vivir Mi Vida” singer, 55, welcomed prior to his relationship with Lopez.

Adds the source: “She keeps in touch with the children and she's a good mom.” 

A source close to the couple told PEOPLE earlier in August that Affleck’s rekindled romance and marriage to Lopez — the pair tied the knot in 2022 — helped him "become a family man again.”

"Family is very important to both of them, and together they were family people — and the connection doesn't end," the source continued.

Following the couple’s divorce — Lopez filed for divorce on Aug. 20, the second anniversary of her and Affleck’s wedding — another source also told PEOPLE that the pair’s children are their main concern.

“The kids are a top priority, as they always have been,” the source said.

Speaking with Good Morning America in December 2021, Affleck opened up about his role as a father and how his kids' opinions are the only ones that matter to him.

"I will be long dead and someone will ask my kids, 'What was your dad like?' and that is when I will know what my life was worth," he said.
