“They have so many feelings. They’re teens. But it’s going really well so far,” she said. “What I hope to cultivate with our family is that his kids have a new ally in me and my kids have a new ally in him, someone who really loves and cares about them but can have a different perspective and help me see things that I can’t see with my kids because I’m so emotionally tied up.”
Garner and Affleck divorced in 2018 after filing in 2015. Lopez shares her twins with ex-husband, singer Mark Anthony, whom she’s been divorced from since 2014.
