Let’s Not Forget: Ben Affleck’s Ex Lindsay Shookus Won An Emmy Award

Lindsay Shookus seems to be doing fine after splitting up from Ben Affleck. The split is what caused him to spiral into an even deeper depression, according to some of his friends (reportedly). 

Lindsay, who is a producer on Saturday Night Live, took home an Award when the show won Outstanding Variety Sketch Series, which marks Lindsay’s third win. She took to the stage with the cast and crew. 

According to a source at US Weekly, “Ben’s drinking was a driving force behind their split,” adding that “Ben hasn’t been sober or been that present for his family and relationship with Lindsay, and now everyone knows the reason why. He was suffering, and his addiction undoubtedly took over.”

The source added of Lindsay, “She is a private person and has taken the necessary steps to avoid the hurtful and often unwelcome attention.”
