Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are back in the headlines again. Although the two announced their divorce last year, the divorce has yet to be finalized. It actually isn’t strange that the divorce would take several months to be completed, for any couple. What’s interesting here is that Ben and Jen may be getting back together after all, according to recent reports.

The Batman v Superman star is currently filming Justice League, but it looks like Affleck is still making time to try and reconcile with Garner. According to Us Weekly, Jennifer is no longer interested in moving forward with the divorce and has called it off. With months and months of speculation, rumors and hearsay, a Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner reconciliation is looking more and more likely.

According to Us Weekly, the divorce proceedings were cancelled just a few weeks ago.

“Jen mentioned that the divorce was going through very soon, and then a few weeks ago, things changed,” according to a source close to Jennifer Garner. “It does not seem to be moving in that direction.”

TMZ is confirming that Ben and Jen’s divorce papers have not been finalized, while the two have been living on the same family property together, but sleeping in separate bedrooms. Ben specifically has been staying in the guest house.

This was intentional, for the sake of their three children – Violet, 10, Seraphina, 7, and Samuel, 4. Ben and Jennifer want to make sure that the kids are okay, like many other parents would do, and they want to be consistent as far as their co-parenting is concerned. Sources have also added that just because the divorce has seemingly been delayed or cancelled, that does not mean that reconciliation is definitely the reason why.

But those same sources also say that isn’t out of the realm of possibility. Throughout this entire breakup, which has lasted over a year now, it’s consistently been reported that Ben still loves Jennifer and wants her back. If the divorce proceedings are being put on hold, it must be for a very specific reason. The two are in couple’s therapy, after all, so maybe it’s actually starting to improve their relationship.

According to a source via HollywoodLife, “The Jen and Ben divorce is on hold for now. As soon as it became real they both freaked out and couldn’t seem to spend any time apart.”

Well it sounds as if Ben and Jen still love each other very much and just can’t seem to let that love disappear. In fact, this source outright confirms that by claiming Affleck and Garner “love each other enough to try again.”

So maybe they are both taking it slow. Rather than completely calling off the divorce and getting right back together, Jennifer could be testing Ben to see if things really can work between the two of them.

“Jen is not an impulsive woman,” HollywoodLife‘s source claims. “And she’s not totally ready to sign off. She needs to make sure Ben is committed to being a husband and father, so she’s giving him more and more responsibility. So far, he’s stepped up to the plate.”

And, he is Batman.

But this seems like the most healthy approach to a reconciliation, especially when you factor in the children. Garner and Affleck have consistently said they would always remain friends and always maintain a proper co-parenting structure for the family. So this all actually makes a lot of sense.

In the Vanity Fair interview that was published earlier this year, Jennifer Garner did make it clear that her love for Ben was never going away, and she even said if she had to, she’d choose to marry him again.

“I ran down the beach to him, and I would again. You can’t have these three babies and so much of what we had. He’s the love of my life. What am I going to do about that? He’s the most brilliant person in any room, the most charismatic, the most generous. He’s just a complicated guy.”

It sounds like there is definitely some room for reconciliation.
