According to a source who spoke to Us Weekly, Ben Affleck’s ex-wife and mother of his children, Jennifer Garner, is “encouraging Ben to work on his marriage to Jen” amid persistent accusations that the couple is having marital problems.
“[Garner] fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy,” the insider continued. The reason for this is that, despite the fact that Garner views Afflek as “a complicated guy” and that their marriage failed, the two have always been quite cooperative with regard to their children, Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12.
Furthermore, according to certain media sources, Lopez approached Garner on her own because she believed that the actress was “one of the only people in the world who would understand what she is going through.”
In a 2020 New York Times interview, Affleck said that his drinking had made his “marital problems” with Garner worse.
He added at the time, “People with compulsive behavior—me included—have this kind of constant, basic discomfort that they’re trying to get rid of.” “You’re attempting to use food, booze, sex, gambling, shopping, or any other activity to help yourself feel better. However, that only makes everything worse in the end. Then, in an attempt to ease the ache, you continue doing it. Then the really suffering begins.
“It turns into an unbreakable vicious cycle,” he went on. “It’s the least that occurred to me.”
Affleck did not attend the premiere of his wife’s new film, Atlas, earlier this week.

A Plus-Size Model Embraces Her Body and Silences Critics That Say She Should Get Thinner
Hunter McGrady is known as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s “curviest model ever.” But this milestone and other achievements weren’t enough to keep haters away. Now, she speaks about how she deals with them.
Meet Hunter McGrady.
Hunter McGrady is an American model and body positivity advocate renowned for her work in the fashion industry. Her breakthrough moment came in 2017. She was selected through an open casting call to appear in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, making her debut as one of the magazine’s curviest models ever. This achievement marked a significant step in her career and highlighted her commitment to challenging conventional beauty standards.
McGrady’s influence extends beyond modeling. She is a vocal advocate for mental health, self-love, and body diversity. Through interviews, social media, and public appearances, she encourages people to embrace their bodies and reject unrealistic societal expectations.
The pivotal moment of her life.
McGrady’s career began as a model at the age of 15, during which she faced significant pressure to maintain a size two, leading to personal struggles with body image and self-acceptance. In a recent interview, she remembered that once she grasped the fact that being a slim fit wasn’t going to be her journey, she let herself live and be happy. Over time, she transitioned to plus-size modeling, finding her niche and voice in promoting body positivity and inclusivity within the fashion world.
It wasn’t an easy journey.
The Los Angeles native admitted that the road to acceptance was long, but therapy played a crucial role in her journey to self-love. She emphasized the importance of appreciating what our bodies can do rather than focusing on societal pressures to look a certain way.
“I think what Sports Illustrated is doing — celebrating all bodies — is so powerful. They’re doing the work. Especially right now when we’re entering this weird era, celebrating thinness,” McGrady noted.
But she keeps receiving negative comments about her body.
“No matter what you do, you’re going to get hate,” McGrady shrugged. “But you’re also going to get love. Negative comments or anybody who shames someone about their body? That’s so boring. Get something better to talk about.”
She emphasizes that criticism and negativity are inevitable, but so is support and appreciation. For McGrady, the act of body-shaming is tiresome and unproductive, reflecting more on the critic than the person being targeted. She encourages people to find more meaningful and positive topics of discussion, shifting focus away from superficial judgments.
Her message to plus-sized women.
McGrady stresses that self-love is the foundation of true confidence and resilience. Despite setbacks and challenges, the continuous effort to nurture self-love is crucial. Without it, external achievements and changes hold little significance.
“Confidence is not linear. It’s a climb,” she mentioned.
As the 60th-anniversary issue of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit hits newsstands, McGrady’s cover serves as a powerful reminder that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. Through her journey and advocacy, she continues to inspire and promote a more inclusive and accepting view of beauty in the fashion industry and beyond.
