Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck allegedly got divorced because of the actor's rumored affair with their former nanny Christine Ouzounian.
"They've been on the brink of splitting up many times before, but it's Jennifer's worst nightmare for their children. Her biggest desire has always been to keep the family together," an insider told Us Weekly.
The 43-year-old actress was reportedly devastated when she found out about the cheating scandal. However, she can never seek comfort from the person whom she loved before - and that is her first husband Scott Foley.
According to Radar Online, the star of "Felicity" is forbidden to make contact with the "Alias" actress. Scott Foley has been married to Polish-American actress Marika Dominczyk for eight years now and one of their rules is to never get in touch with his former lovers.
"Scott and Marika have a very happy home relationship, and he's said from the get-go that he will never, ever make contact with any of his exes, least of all his ex-wife," their insider revealed.
Jennifer Garner was married to Scott Foley for four years so he must have felt sorry about his ex's divorce from Ben Affleck.
"Probably, but there's no relationship, friendly or otherwise, between Scott and Jennifer now - and Marika would leave him in a heartbeat if he tried to change that, because to her it would be totally inappropriate," their source said.
While Jen can forget getting support from her ex-husband, Ben has been busy rekindling his romance with his former fiancée Jennifer Lopez.
Just recently, the former lovers were spotted making out in a hot tub and PDA images taken from home surveillance tapes leaked online.
"In the video, Ben and J.Lo are inseparable - hugging and kissing. They look so much in love," their source said as reported by Closer Weekly. "They couldn't keep their hands off each other. They even had a steamy romp in the hot tub under the stars, while other people were around!"
