Ben Affleck’s mom Chris Boldt is seen on rare outing with his current wife Jennifer Lopez and ex-wife Jennifer Garner to support grandson Samuel at his basketball game

Ben Affleck’s mom was pictured spending time with his current wife as well as his ex on Sunday, while attending her grandson Samuel’s basketball game.

Christopher Anne ‘Chris’ Boldt accompanied her son, 51, and wife Jennifer Lopez, 54, to a local YMCA in Los Angeles to cheer on the 12-year-old.

 

Lopez and Affleck arrived separately and shared an awkward air kiss, before heading into the game together with his mom. Chris later departed the event with her former daughter-in-law Jennifer Garner, 52.

Affleck and Garner were married from 2005 until their divorce was finalized in 2018. Along with Samuel, the pair also share Violet, 18, and Fin, 15 – formerly known as Seraphina.

The outing comes amid ongoing rumors of marital woes between Affleck and Lopez, who recently cancelled her US tour ‘to be with her children, family’ after her album flopped and Netflix movie Atlas was panned by critics.

Affleck and Lopez greeted each other outside but opted not to kiss on the lips, instead proceeding to do an air kiss, with Ben seemingly patting his wife on the back, before they headed into the event.

Afterwards, the duo looked glum while grabbing some fast food at the Jack in the Box drive thru, amid ongoing rumors of marital woes.

 

The singer looked chic in a long-sleeve black top and blue jeans.

She wore her honey-toned tresses down for the occasion, and sported lightly tinted sunglasses.

The Hustlers star carried a black leather purse with her and donned her signature gold hoops.

Meanwhile the father-of-three looked casual cool in a red t-shirt, blue jeans, sneakers and a red corduroy jacket.

His mom wore a black cardigan over a blue top and matching black pants.

Garner was effortlessly chic in a brown sweater, blue jeans, black loafers and a brown hat.

Earlier in the day, Lopez was seen at a farmer’s market with her 15-year-old Emme, which could explain why she arrived to the event separately from Affleck.

Jennifer welcomed Emme – who’s used they/them pronouns since 2022 – and twin brother Maximilian David Muñiz during her seven-year marriage to four-time Grammy winner Marc Anthony, which ended in 2011.

They wed in 2004 following Lopez’s first shock split with Affleck that same year. Anthony and Lopez separated in 2011 and their divorce was finalized in 2014.

Affleck’s mom also recently accompanied the pair as they attended a family gathering on Thursday.

The embattled couple were on their way to attend another celebration for Affleck daughter Violet’s graduation.

Neither Affleck nor Lopez appeared to be smiling as they were seen out, as the stony-faced couple made their way from their car.

Afterwards, they were also pictured exiting the party together in Affleck’s BMW, but shortly after arriving at the rental home he has been staying in, Lopez was seen leaving alone in her own car.

Their reunion on the Thursday was their first in twelve days. They attended a movie event with Garner and their kids two weeks earlier, and the couple were seen putting on a frosty display at his child Fin’s school recital two days earlier.

That was their first sighting in seven weeks as they had not been seen together since late March in New York City.

The outing comes after the singer cancelled her US tour ‘to be with her children, family’ after her album flopped and Netflix movie Atlas was panned by critics.

The couple – who tied the knot in 2022 – are currently ‘living separately.’ Affleck has been staying in a $100k-a-month rental in Brentwood with Lopez residing in their $60 million mansion in Los Angeles.

It was recently revealed that the Brentwood home is only a mere two blocks away from the mother of his children, who is reportedly desperately trying to help Ben save his two-year marriage to Lopez.

Despite their marital woes, a source told People on Friday that Ben and Jennifer ‘still want to put the kids first,’ adding that the two ‘have always been very family-oriented.’

‘The graduation was a big deal. Jennifer wanted to celebrate it,’ the insider said, adding that the strain in their marriage is ‘heartbreaking for her.’

Lopez has also been confiding in Garner according to insiders, who claim the two women fear he is close to breaking his sobriety.

Lopez has been divorced three times. The singer’s first marriage was to Cuban actor Ojani Noa, 49, in 1997. It only lasted 11 months.

She tied the knot again with choreographer Cris Judd, 54, in 2001 but they were divorced by 2003.

She then wed Anthony, before reuniting with Affleck following their divorce.

Last Friday, Lopez was ‘completely heartsick and devastated’ to announce the cancellation of 30-date This is Me… Live: The Greatest Hits summer tour in order to take ‘time off to be with her children, family, and close friends.’

‘Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,’ the Emmy-nominated producer – who boasts 392.7M social media followers – wrote on her website.

‘I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time…’

Yesterday it was reported that Affleck clashed with Lopez’s team and says she needs to ‘overhaul her career’ following the singer’s string of recent setbacks.

In recent months, the couple have rarely been seen crossing paths nor spending time together on public outings amid separation rumors.

Lopez was also solo for her co-chair duties at the glitzy Met Gala in New York City on May 6 as many fans were surprised Affleck skipped the event.

Shortly afterwards, it was reported that the pair ‘just couldn’t make it work’ and are headed for a split after less than two years of marriage.

They became engaged the following year but broke up in 2004. They then rekindled their romance in the spring of 2021.

The duo married in a Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, followed by a lavish wedding at his Georgia estate on August 2022.

Garner was notable for her absence at Affleck’s wedding in Georgia, with his brother Casey also declining to attend after saying he had prior parental commitments in Los Angeles.
