Mormon Wives' Jen Affleck Teams Up With ‘Cousin’ Ben Affleck In Dunkin' Ad

Jen Affleck is embracing the title of “Value Affleck” in her new Dunkin commercial — starring opposite her “cousin” Ben Affleck.

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives reality star appears in the playful new ad, where she pokes fun at Ben while promoting Dunkin’s $6 Meal Deal. When the cashier calls out an order for “Affleck,” customers expect Ben to appear — but Jen strolls in instead.

“Expecting my cousin Ben? Nah. When Dunkin’ has something packed with amazing value, they bring me in. Jen Affleck. The Value Affleck,” she declares. “Twice the personality, half the price. I’m a steal. Just like Dunkin’s $6 Meal Deal. A coffee, bacon, egg, and cheese, and hash browns for $6? That’s value. You know what’s not value? Ben.”

She doesn’t stop there. “Why overpay for something that nobody wants?” Jen continues. “I’m younger, hotter. Can you believe Ben‘s only 53? And it’s not like a young 53. It’s like a weathered 53.”

At that point, the camera pans to Ben sitting in his car at the drive-thru window, reacting to her roast. “Rude,” he says. “[I’m a] totally average 53. Right down the 53 fairway.”

In a confessional moment, Jen jokes the meeting was “bad” but can’t resist another jab: “But not as bad as those grays.”

Of course, Ben has long been associated with Dunkin’ — he even starred in a Super Bowl commercial for the brand earlier this year. The new collab playfully leans into the running gag from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 1 that Jen and her husband, Zac Affleck, might be related to Ben. While that turned out to be false, the inside joke became a fan favorite.

“We’re tight now,” Jen told Us Weekly of working with Ben. “I got the opportunity to do a Dunkin Donuts commercial — and we all know that’s his thing. It was so fun. It was like we were family.”

She even quipped that Ben is now invited to her family’s Thanksgiving and revealed that Zac, 29, got to meet the actor too. “We were definitely starstruck. We were all freaking out,” Jen shared. “He was so nice. I was not expecting it. I was not expecting how nice he was.”

This fall, Jen is also taking on a new challenge as a contestant on the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars, where she’s paired with pro dancer Jan Ravnik — best known for touring with Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour.
