Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez did indeed spend Christmas day together, People reports. The outlet was told by a source that Affleck spent Christmas Eve in Los Angeles with his three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 16-year-old Violet, 12-year-old Seraphina, and 9-year-old Samuel. Christmas day, Lopez and Affleck were together...with both their families.
Lopez and Affleck were joined on Christmas by her 13-year-old twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony, Emme and Max, and Affleck's mother. A source told People it was a good, calm time for Bennifer. “It was a pretty quiet holiday for them. They really enjoyed it after a busy fall,” the source said.
Lopez and Affleck spent part of fall apart due to their work commitments putting them in different places. A source told People in November that the long distance just strengthened their back-on relationship.
“It's difficult for them to be apart,” the source said. “They are making it work though. They are incredibly happy when they are together. It's like the distance has made them appreciate their relationship even more. Jennifer keeps gushing about how amazing Ben is. He makes her very happy.”
People did not get detail on what Affleck and Lopez gave each other for Christmas. A source told Entertainment Tonight in December that Affleck had big plans for Lopez's gift though.
“Ben is planning something special as a Christmas gift for Jennifer,” the source said, adding that Lopez was “excited [because she] has always loved Christmas and cannot wait to spend it with Ben.”
