In a recent interview with Australian magazine Stellar, Jennifer Garner candidly discussed her efforts to avoid reading about herself and her ex-husband Ben Affleck in the media.

Garner admitted, "It doesn't feel good, even if it's something nice about one of us." Since rekindling his relationship with and marrying Jennifer Lopez, Affleck has been the subject of countless online memes. Regarding the memes, Garner quipped, "I don't need to see anyone in my family made into a meme, although I'm sure he's quite meme-worthy, yes!"

Garner's lightheartedness about Affleck reflects her emotional growth since their divorce in 2018. A source close to the actress shared with Star, "He has his new life, and she has hers, and she's OK with that. She can even poke a little fun at him now." The source further explained that Garner has moved past any lingering bitterness and now believes it's her turn to find happiness.

The 51-year-old actress is enjoying success both professionally and personally. Garner stars in the Apple TV+ series The Last Thing He Told Me and her relationship with CaliBurger CEO John Miller, 45, is going strong. She is also successfully co-parenting her three children, Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14, and Samuel, 11, with Affleck, 50, and Lopez, 53. The source revealed, "Jen spent so many years prioritizing her children, but she's in a place now where she feels she can focus on herself a bit more."

Garner has also come to terms with some of Affleck's controversial statements about their relationship. For example, in 2021, he caused outrage when he claimed that part of the reason he drank was that he felt "trapped" with Garner. However, a source insists that she remains "unfazed." "Ben may say the wrong things, and J.Lo may enjoy being in the spotlight a lot more than Jen ever will, but Jen knows that's who they are, and she knows who she is."

Having found a balance in her life that had previously been elusive, Garner is looking forward to the future. The source stated, "She's in the sweet spot with her family and career. She's excited for this next chapter."
