Ben Affleck Reveals His Relationship Status, Allegedly Tired Of Jennifer Garner's Constant 'Mothering'

Ben Affleck, 47, was linked to a number of personalities after he announced his split from Jennifer Garner, 47, in 2015. The “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” actor dated “Saturday Night Live” producer Lindsay Shookus and was rumored to be hooking up with Shauna Sexton just days after he left rehab and finalized his divorce from Jennifer. Unfortunately, the two post-Jen relationships did not work out, leaving Ben back on the market.

Recently, the “Gone Girl” star confirmed in an Instagram post that he has officially returned to the dating scene again. Though Ben did not directly confirm that he has been depending on the celebrity dating app to find dates, he did mention Raya on his most recent post.

"HA, you got me. I'm dating. But let's be serious for a moment and talk about something that is actually important. I have been in recovery for over a year and part of that is helping out others,” Ben Affleck wrote, Entertainment Tonight reported. “@themidnightmission is an incredible organization that helps those in need with housing, training, development, and recovery. I'm making a donation today because there are people battling addiction every day that don't have the resources and need help. @raya, you in? Who else is with me? Click the link in my bio to donate,” the estranged husband of Jennifer Garner went on.

Reports about Ben looking for his next ladylove on dating apps broke earlier this week. A PageSix source claimed that the “Good Will Hunting” actor is using the exclusive app to find a "real" partner. Though Jennifer’s ex is known for dating celebrities, everything is different this time around since he, reportedly, wants to have a non-showbiz partner. While he prioritizes his work and co-parenting his three kids with Jennifer, Ben is, allegedly, now ready to give love another shot.

Meanwhile, OK! Magazine claimed that Ben Affleck wants Jennifer Garner to stop “mothering” him. An unnamed source said that the “Peppermint” star has been “micromanaging” the life of her estranged husband by constantly giving Ben late-night calls and life advice. Though the actor appreciates the efforts of his former ladylove, the anonymous tipster said Ben feels that Jennifer is doing a few things a little over the line.

“She can’t resist folding his laundry, cooking him dinner or straightening up his house whenever she brings [their three] kids over,” the informant claimed. “He’s doing great on his own, so he’s gently trying to tell her that he can take care of himself,” it added.

Both Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have yet to comment on these claims. However, based on OK! Magazine’s history of writing news based on phony sources, this could be just another speculation waiting to be quashed.
