Ben Affleck has "no interest" in dating right now, a source exclusively told Page Six.
According to the insider, during his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, the 52-year-old "Batman" star is "focused on numerous projects he's working on" and is "still adjusting to the single life. "
"Ben has no interest in jumping into another relationship at the moment," the insider said. "Ben's divorce from Jennifer hasn't even been finalized, but even if it were, dating is just not where his head is at."
Earlier this year, on the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding ceremony, after they eloped in Las Vegas on July 17, 2022, Jennifer, 55, filed for divorce from the Oscar winner.
According to the insider, "Ben is taking this time to focus on himself, his kids and his career."
Production on Ben and friend Matt Damon's upcoming crime thriller, "RIP," has been "slowed" due to the actor's divorce, as Page Six previously revealed.
"With Ben's divorce and everything going on in his personal life, production on the film has slowed and there's no release date at the moment," a source revealed. "They're still working on the project, but there's not a firm deadline with any of it."
This Christmas season, Ben has been spending a lot of his free time with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their three children, per Yahoo!
Over the weekend, the ex-couple, who ended their ten-year marriage in 2015, was driving around Brentwood, California.
The 52-year-old actress from "13 Going on 30" was seen gathering bagels before bringing the meal to Ben's residence. After that, the ex-partners got into the car and drove away.
During the day, Ben and Garner worked with the Midnight Mission to help feed 2,000 homeless and near-homeless individuals in downtown Los Angeles, so they also celebrated Thanksgiving together.
The ex-couple and their three kids, Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, had Thanksgiving supper after the charitable event.
Ben felt "blessed" to spend Thanksgiving with Garner and their children, according to a source who spoke to Page Six, since he feels like he "can just be himself" with the actress.
"Even though Ben and Garner have been split for a while now, he feels a certain level of comfort with her," the insider said. "Ben has a strong relationship with Garner that will never dissipate because they have a lot of history together and she's the mother of his kids."
Internet users respond to the divorce controversy.
