It’s been six months since Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner separated, and it’s still unclear if the couple is planning to proceed with their divorce, or it there’s actually some truth to the tumors that they plan to give it another shot.
The couple has been spotted together on several occasions – often with their three kids in tow – but there have also been rumors that they’ve both moved on and that Ben is dating Sienna Miller.
Now, E! News is reporting that Ben and Jen plan to spend Christmas together in Montana.
But before you start spreading the rumor that Bennifer 2.0 will be officially back together by New Year’s, note that the source on this says the couple is only spending so much time together for the sake of their children:
“They will be together as a family,” the insider explains. “They continue to put the kids first and spend time with each other for the sake of their children.
“There are still a lot of issues, but she has put them aside for the sake of her family. Jen’s number one priority is the kids and always has been…When [she and Ben] spend time together, it is for the kids.”
So there you have it.
Affleck and Garner aren’t consciously re-coupling; they’re just trying to make the process easier on their kids – by pulling the Band-Aid off verrrrrrry sloooooowly.
Hey, whatever works!
