KAHIT naghiwalay, inaayos pa rin nina Ben Affleck at Jennifer Garner ang kanilang relasyon para sa kanilang mga anak.
Isang source na malapit sa dating mag-asawa ang nagsabi sa ET na nananatili pa rin ang kanilang “love and respect for one another” pagkaraan ng halos dalawang taon simula nang maghiwalay sila, at pareho silang committed para maalagaan nang maayos ang kanilang mga anak.
“They have maintained such a strong and beautiful united front to stay lovely and classy towards each other for their kids,” saad ng source. “They spend so much time working on their relationship -- whether it’s a friendship or anything -- for their kids.”
Nitong Biyernes, iniulat ng Us Weekly na naghahanda na si Jennifer para opisyal na maisampa ng diborsiyo kay Affleck.
Wala pang mga papeles na naihahain para sa kanilang diborsiyo simula nang ipahayag nila ang kanilang paghihiwalay.
Sinabi ng source sa ET na, “not one thing has changed” simula nang isapubliko nila ang kanilang paghihiwalay.
“Their friendship is there,” ani source. “They are so die-hard committed to co-parenting. Whatever form this relationship is, they’ll always have love for each other, and the love they have for their kids is so strong, they won’t let anything bring that down.”
“They both have done things they’re not proud of and in no way was Ben a shining husband, but there are a lot of things that go into a marriage and a split,” dagdag ng source. “They put together their plans and goals, in terms of their friendship and their relationship, and they’re doing just that. Whatever this new normal that they created for their family is, they’re doing it.”
Namataan si Jennifer na papaalis galing sa nail salon sa Los Angeles nitong Huwebes, mukhang malusog at masaya habang naglalakad na nakangiti.
Pinili nina Jennifer at Ben, parehong 44 na taong gulang, na maging mabuti sa isa’t isa at manatiling magkaibigan Patuloy pa rin silang nakatira sa iisang bahay, madalas na bumiyaheng magkakasama bilang pamilya, at namataan din na bumuboto at pumupunta sa simbahan na magkasama.
“They’re so careful of how they act in front of the kids,” saad ng source, na ang tinutukoy ay ang 11-anyos na si Violet, 8-anyos na si Seraphina, at 4-anyos na si Samuel. “Ben and Jen are fiercely protective of their children.
They’re very careful to make sure they keep their children away from it all.”
Nakapanayam ng ET si Ben Affleck noong Oktubre sa Los Angeles sa premiere ng kanyang pelikula na The Accountant at naging bukas siya tungkol sa pagpapalaki sa anak kasama si Jennifer. “We do our best,” saad ng Oscar-winner. “We try our best.”
Nitong nakaraang buwan, tinawag ni Ben si Jennifer na “world’s greatest mom” nang mag-guest siya sa The Ellen DeGeneres Show. (ET online)
