Jennifer Lopez<\/a> and Jennifer Garner were both in attendance at the 2026 Golden Globe Awards, but viewers hoping for a joint moment between Ben Affleck\u2019s ex-wives didn\u2019t get one. According to a source, that was entirely intentional.<\/p>\n

Both actresses attended the ceremony at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday, where they each served as a presenter and walked the red carpet separately. While they appeared at the same event, they were not photographed together, a decision that insiders say was made to avoid unnecessary attention rather than any tension behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner \u2018don\u2019t want to drum up headlines by posing together,\u2019 per source<\/p>\n

A source told Daily Mail<\/a> that Lopez and Garner are on friendly terms and \u201cget along,\u201d but chose not to pose together because they don\u2019t want to create awkward speculation. \u201cThey don\u2019t want to drum up headlines by posing together at an awards show,\u201d the source explained, adding that there is \u201cno animosity\u201d between them.<\/p>\n

The insider also noted that the two women see each other \u201coften\u201d due to their shared connection through Affleck and their children. Lopez shares twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Garner shares Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel with Ben Affleck<\/a>. According to the source, their families are close, and the co-parenting dynamics remain positive.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re like one big modern family,\u201d the insider said, emphasizing that both women prioritize keeping things comfortable and stable for their kids first. The source also added that both of them have been in therapy and understand the importance of maintaining a respectful relationship.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Garner\u2019s<\/a> appearance at the Golden Globes marked her first time attending the ceremony in more than a decade. She last attended in 2013 alongside her husband Affleck at that time. Lopez, meanwhile, wore a sheer vintage Jean-Louis Scherrer gown and attended the event solo following her divorce from Affleck.<\/p>\n

While fans may have hoped for a public show of unity, the decision to stay separate appears rooted in discretion, not drama, a quiet move to keep them away from the evening headlines.<\/p>\n
