There were some reports that the snaps of Affleck hanging out with his ex left Lopez "absolutely furious." However, a source close to the actor and the 'Jenny From the Block' songstress told the outlet there is no ill will between the three of them and that Lopez fully supports their "happy co-parenting" setup.
The insider also claimed that Affleck and Garner's reconciliation was made possible by his new relationship with Lopez.
"One of the things that made [Garner] and [Affleck] get to a better place was - and is - JLO," the source said.
They added, "Ben is healthy. The drama of the past and the emotions of divorce are long gone, and they are all making it work."

The source claimed, "They want to get back to work and are looking forward to the strikes being over but they are also very much enjoying the more time they are spending with each other."

According to the source, Lopez even seeks Affleck's counsel on how to handle co-parenting with her ex, Marc Anthony, with whom she shares 15-year-old twins Maximilian "Max" David Muniz and Emme Maribel Muniz.
