Ben Affleck praises ‘spectacular’ ex Jennifer Lopez in rare comment about their blended family

Ben Affleck praised Jennifer Lopez in a rare comment about their blended family.

The “Argo” actor raved about his pop star ex while attending the premiere of his new film, “The Accountant 2,” in Los Angeles Wednesday.

“For the record, Jennifer Lopez is spectacular, great to my kids, great ongoing relationship with them,” he told “Entertainment Tonight” at the event.

Affleck shares three children — Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13 — with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, while Lopez has two children — 17-year-old twins Max and Emme — with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

“I love her kids. They are wonderful,” Affleck continued. “She is enormously important, [a] tremendous person of a lot of integrity who I adore and am grateful to.”

The Oscar winner, 52, also said he was “thrilled” to attend the screening with his own kids, as well as J.Lo’s offspring.

“That’s the kind of thing where the relationship that you have with children like that is a joy in my life,” he gushed. “Those kids are amazing and I’m glad that this is a movie they want to come to.”⁠

Affleck furthered that he was “very excited” for their blended family to reunite.

“I love when all the kids come out,” he said.

The “Good Will Hunting” star slammed the tabloids for pushing a negative narrative between himself and the “Dinero” artist.

“I don’t read the stuff online much and sometimes I get the sense that people perpetuate this idea of like, I don’t know, they want to find something negative to talk about,” he said.

Affleck and Lopez, 55, merged families when they tied the knot in July 2022 — years after calling off their first engagement in the early 2000s.

However, the pair’s marriage began to crack under the pressures of fame and they separated two years later.

They finalized their divorce in January.

A source told Page Six last December that Affleck and Lopez planned on staying “connected” for the sake of their kids.

“They have every intention of continuing to be in each other’s lives despite not being romantically involved,” the insider shared at the time. “Ben and Jennifer are still connected and they do communicate when it involves their kids.”

Lopez has been equally as complimentary about Affleck’s parenting skills in the past.

“Oh, my God. He’s an amazing dad. It brings tears to my eyes,” the actress said during an appearance on “The View” in 2023. “He is honestly the best dad I’ve ever seen.”

She added, “He’s present, and that’s all you can ask: for a present, loving dad who cares and shows up every single day, and that’s who he is.”
