An insider told Us Weekly: ‘Although it’s sad in a way to see him move on and be so happy, she is ultimately happy that he is happy and in a good and healthy place with his life. That’s what she ultimately wants for the father of her kids,’ they added.
Jennifer and Ben split back in 2015, but the Hollywood stars have subsequently worked hard to maintain a good relationship with each other for the sake of their children.
The source added that Jennifer is ‘always polite and trusts Ben and lets him do what he wants when he’s with the kids’.
Meanwhile, Ana and Ben first connected on the set of the thriller film Deep Water in 2019 where they star as a married couple who have fallen out of love.

They took their relationship public in March when they were seen enjoying a vacation in Costa Rica and Ana’s native Cuba.
Earlier this month, a insider claimed that Ana has been wowed by Ben and Jennifer’s co-parenting skills.
The source said that the Cuban starlet is impressed by how the celebrity duo have managed to balance their acting careers with raising their three children.
The insider explained: ‘[Ana] thinks Ben is such a sweet and nice guy. [She] admires how he juggles so much between work, his kids and co-parenting with Jen.’
Ex factor: Ben and Jen were married from 2005-2018 and the former couple share three children, Violet, 14, Seraphina, 11, and Samuel, eight, whom they successfully and amicably co-parent
Ben ‘splits his time [between Ana and his family] and, as always, the kids are the most important thing in his life’.
However, the insider added that the Hollywood actor – who was married to Jennifer between 2005 and 2018 – ‘always makes sure he has time for [Ana] and that she is number one’.
The new couple is currently hunkering down together while stay-at-home orders are in place in Los Angeles.
On Tuesday, Ana and Ben packed on the PDA as they sweetly held hands while taking their dogs for a walk around their neighborhood.
