Jennifer Lopez's new film, The Greatest Love Story Never Told, included some details that Ben Affleck didn't approve of.
After JLo and Ben split, they stayed in contact even when he was dating Jennifer Garner. In fact, Ben put those sweet words into a book, gifting them to JLo when they reunited. Lopez showed off this part of her love story during her new film which is largely based on her and Ben's tumultuous relationship.
Insiders, though, say Garner was actually aware that Ben still had feelings for Lopez, even if she didn't know all of the exact details. Now, Garner has moved on from the relationship, too, linking with John Miller.
