Jennifer Garner<\/a> is having a banner year \u2014 and it hasn\u2019t gone unnoticed by Jennifer Lopez<\/a> as she navigates a series of career setbacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople talk about Jennifer like she\u2019s some kind of superwoman, and it really gets under J.Lo\u2019s skin,\u201d a source tells Globe. \u201cUnfortunately, she can\u2019t just shrug it off because Jennifer really does have some kind of magic touch. It\u2019s like there\u2019s nothing she doesn\u2019t excel at.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second season of Garner\u2019s hit Apple TV+ show, The Last Thing He Told Me, premieres Friday, February 20 and her organic children\u2019s food company, Once Upon a Farm, is set to go public with an estimated $764 million valuation.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s going to make a fortune,\u201d adds the source \u201cIt\u2019s conceivable that she could hit billionaire status, which is very hard to stomach for J.Lo since she\u2019s not been able to crack that yet herself even with all her many businesses over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lopez, 56, canceled her 2024 This Is Me \u2026 Live tour amid reports of poor ticket sales and her latest film, Kiss of the Spider Woman, bombed at the box office.<\/p>\n

The real issue, though, is their shared ex-husband, Ben Affleck<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for him, Jennifer wouldn\u2019t even be on J.Lo\u2019s radar,\u201d explains the source. \u201cIt\u2019s not just that she\u2019s his \u2018perfect\u2019 ex-wife. It\u2019s also the state of their relationship now<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Globe previously reported, the former couple, both 53, split in 2015 but have remained on friendly terms as they coparent their three children, Violet, 20, Seraphina, 17, and Samuel, 13.<\/p>\n

Affleck even went as far as to call his divorce from Garner the \u201cbiggest regret\u201d of his life in a 2020 interview with The New York Times<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that Ben still has so much affection for Jennifer and still wants to spend all kinds of time with her when he doesn\u2019t have the same feelings towards J.Lo is incredibly painful,\u201d the source admits.<\/p>\n
