Ben Affleck Takes Mother's Help for Support After Split?

Hollywood actor Ben Affleck is reportedly getting help from his mother while dealing with his split from estranged wife Jennifer Garner.

The couple recently announced their decision to separate after 10 years of marriage and said it was a "difficult decision to divorce."

"While Jen is turning to her family and friends, the person in Ben's life is his mother," a source said.

"She is a constant rock for him. She had remained close to the family as well. She's been there for him through this extremely difficult time."

Affleck and his three children Samuel, 3, Seraphina, 6, and Violet, 9, have been spending time with his mother Christine while Jennifer is busy with the shoot of her latest film 'Nine Lives' in Montreal.

"He is really leaning on his mother for support. Ben and his mom have always been very close," the source said.

Affleck is also said to have turned to his mother for support when he split with ex-fiancé Jennifer Lopez.
