Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's Kids Are "Ready to Move on" After Divorce Filing

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez in NYC on October 10, 2021.

After months of split rumors, Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck on August 20. That date was symbolic, as it marked two years since the couple tied the knot in a big family wedding in Georgia. Discussing the message Lopez sent with her decision to file on their anniversary, a source told People, "She was done waiting and the date she did it speaks a ton."

Affleck and Lopez have five children between them. Lopez welcomed her twins, Emme and Maximilian Muñiz, with ex-husband Marc Anthony in 2008. Meanwhile, Affleck shares three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner—Violet, Fin, and Samuel. And according to a new report, the couple's blended family is ready to move on following the divorce filing.
