His ex is dishing out tough love.
As Ben Affleck picks up the pieces of his life in rehab once again, the A-list actor is mulling over the scariest ultimatum his estranged wife Jennifer Garner has ever given him – clean up your act or lose your kids!
While the Peppermint actress, 46, showed nothing but concern when she staged an intervention for her alcoholic ex and drove him to a live-in treatment facility in Malibu, we’ve learnt Jennifer has since delivered a chilling message to Ben, 46, a threetime rehab veteran.
“She’s told him that he has to stay in rehab for at least a month this time around if he’s going to have any chance of getting joint custody of the children,” a well-placed source reveals, speaking exclusively to Woman’s Day.
“This is truly the case of third time lucky for Ben. Jen’s warned him that unless he stays put and does the hard yards, she’ll have no choice but to take the kids away from him and only allow supervised visits.
“Jen does still care for him dearly, but she’s through with pussyfooting around. It’s time for tough love. She simply can’t risk putting her kids through any more.”
Oscar winner Ben, who had previously checked into rehab in 2001 and 2017, reportedly hit the bottle after being dumped by his girlfriend of one year, Lindsay Shookus, 38. She had reportedy caught him flirting online with Playboy model Shauna Sexton, 22, who later joined him on several boozy dates.
