Jennifer Lopez recently conveyed her heartfelt wishes to Ben Affleck, her former spouse, on Father’s Day with a touching social media post, amidst their ongoing separation. The celebrated singer and actress shared a sincere tribute on her Instagram story, commending the father of her twins for his dedication and love.
The couple, who ended their marriage in 2018 after tying the knot in 2004, co-parent their 13-year-old twins, Emme and Max. In her post, Lopez acknowledged Affleck’s integral role in their children’s lives by praising his constant support and loving nature.
“Happy Father’s Day to one of the best dads out there,” wrote Lopez. “Your kids are so lucky to have you. Thank you for always being there for them and for setting such a wonderful example of what it means to be a loving, devoted father. We all appreciate you immensely.”
This message comes on the heels of their recent public announcement of separation but underscores the mutual respect and admiration that still exists between them, especially in parenting matters.
Lopez has previously spoken about the complexities of co-parenting with Affleck, yet she stresses the importance of prioritizing their children’s well-being. In past remarks, she expressed, “We are committed to our kids and we will always be there for them. We are trying to do the best we can for them.”
Affleck, in his own words, has shared profound appreciation for Lopez, even post-separation. He highlighted in an interview, “Jennifer is an incredible individual. She’s a wonderful mother, partner, and friend. We share a special connection and I cherish that.”
As Father’s Day nears, Lopez’s thoughtful message is a poignant reminder of the significance of recognizing the efforts and commitments of fathers, even during difficult times.
