Right, because he really needs a GF who likes to party. |
People is sticking with the "she wants more freedom, doesn't want to be stuck in LA" story. |
A girlfriend who likes to party, who has a child living on the opposite coast from his kids, and who has dabbled in infidelity. Thank goodness she is history. #teamben |
I mean, she was basically his twin. #teamjengandthekids |
| She wanted the secure the bag with at least a baby and he wouldn't. It's obvious. She's in her 30s--clock is ticking--so she can't afford to stick around for a couple of years and hope he changes his mind (or gets caught slipping and impregnates her). |
That is how Jen G trapped him. |
Indeed, but takes two to tango. Doubt he was an unwilling party to the deed. |
I have a friend who did not take the pill so she can have a baby. Her Bf at the time did not know. She got pregnant, they married instantly. Happy 8 years later. |
| Married friends ended up having their first a little earlier than planned because they had been separated for work and when they reunited wife told him she didn't have b/c. He was willing to chance it, and 9 months later... |
How did she trap him? He seems to have loved her and while he treated her like crap, she’s been a good partner to him. Even taking him to rehab post divorce. |
People are just speculating, presuming she got knocked up on purpose to get him to marry her. No-one knows what really happened. And no-one denies that he was incredibly lucky to have her, then and now. |
Again, who knows about their private dynamic but based on public perception, Ben was incredibly lucky to meet and marry Jen. She seems to be the most maternal, problem free and grounded woman he could have found to have a family with. She appeared to be absolutely besotted with him, was incredibly loyal and accommodating. Because she took care of the home front, he was able to focus on his career while having a bunch of happy, well adjusted children. Jen G was an angel to put up with his bad behavior though. |
| You people are so boring telling us these tales of your friends who had babies by accident. That definitely doesn't qualify as "entertainment and pop culture" in my book. Gah. |
Or he married Jen G because of the pregnancy instead of someone who was a better fit for him and for whom he had true love and passion. |
It is entirely possible. I did always think there appeared to be a mis-match between the two based on public appearances. Jen is super sweet, West Virginia raised self described "goody goody" while Ben is a LMC junkie with mental health problems. He probably cannot relate to Jen's normalcy and missed excitement and passion. He would be a better fit for someone with a more troubled past. |
