Jennifer recently took a trip home to West Virginia to see her family and shared a darling photo with her younger sister Melissa Wylie and their mother Patricia Garner.

‘West Virginia— you know how to autumn,’ the 13 Going on 30 star captioned the post.

Both sightings come as insiders reveal Ben is almost ready to date again following his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, 55, after two years of marriage. 

JLo filed for divorce in August on her and Ben’s second wedding anniversary, after months of rumors that their relationship was on the brink of collapse.

When Ben moves on to his next girlfriend, he has one thing that is not negotiable. The woman must either be sober or in recovery as he is not willing to jeopardize his own sobriety.

‘Ben has not given up on relationships and finally feels ready to move forward and start dating again,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively.

‘He is not going to jump into anything serious until the divorce is finalized but that does not mean he cannot date.’

They continued: ‘He only wants to date someone who is sober or in recovery. These past two years have been tough for Ben and as he begins to heal, one thing is very clear: his recovery comes before anything. He is not going to put his sobriety in jeopardy.’
