Affleck's Exes on Hulu: Fame & Divorce

0:00On March 12th, here's the latest out of Durham. A new Hulu reality series called The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives took a direct jab at Hollywood's Rocky Marriages by spotlighting Ben Affleck's. Devorses. One cast member named Zach share concerns that the entertainment world does not support strong relationships. He noted how many big stars end up splitting multiple times. To drive the point home, the show flashed photos of Affleck with his two famous ex-wives. Affleck first connected with Jennifer Garner on a movie set back in 2001. They tied the knot four years later and had three kids together. After about 10 years, the couple parted ways in 2015. Garner has since been seen someone on and off while Affleck rekindled an old flame. That flame was Jennifer Lopez, whom he dated more than 20 years ago before getting back together in early 2021. They seemed solid at first, but Lopez filed for divorce last August. Affleck has spoken publicly about respecting her despite their differences on handling private life in the spotlight.

1:02Fans and viewers quickly picked up on the show's cheeky overlay of those ex-wife photos during Zach's confessional. It sparks chatter online about celebrity relationships and whether fame dooms them from the start. The moment fit right into the series theme of contrasting everyday values with Tinseltown drama. Lately, Affleck opened up in a magazine interview, saying there was no big blow up in his marriage to Lopez, just differing views on publicity.
