Jen Affleck is one of 14 celebrity contestants who’ll be competing on season 34 of “Dancing With the Stars.”

Despite her last name, the 26-year-old is not related to movie star Ben Affleck. Jen is known for the Hulu reality TV show “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” which premiered in 2024. Season 2 was released in May.

Jen previously claimed that her husband, Zac Affleck, is a distant cousin of Ben’s, but Zac debunked that rumor during season 2 of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”

“No one’s ever taken it seriously until you ran with it,” Zac told Jen in an episode of the show, noting that his family told her they were related to Ben as a “joke.”
