‘It doesn’t make me feel good, even if it’s something nice about one of us. 

‘I just try to forget that I’m out there in any way, and the same with anyone I love.’

She added: ‘I don’t need to see anyone in my family made into a meme.’

When asked if she had seen any of the memes about the father of her children (Ben made waves on the internet recently ), she said she had not.

Jennifer added jokingly: ‘Although, I’m sure he’s quite meme-worthy, yes!’

Many interpreted his comments as Ben attributing his alcoholism to Jennifer.

Sources then alleged about the remarks and ‘didn’t want to be dragged into’ any drama.

The insider initiallytold: ‘She has met Jennifer Garner. She is trying to get to know her and Ben’s kids. It’s reckless and cavalier of him.’ 

However, the On The Floor songstress later slammed the claims and told: ‘This story is simply not true. It is not how I feel. I couldn’t have more respect for Ben as a father, a co-parent, and a person.’ 

Honestly, we kinda understand why Jennifer doesn’t want to read anything…
