Ben Affleck’s ex Lindsay Shookus is out at “Saturday Night Live,” Page Six is told.

Shookus, 42, has been at “SNL” since 2002 and rose through the ranks to producer.

As part of a show revamp for its upcoming 48th season, she was reportedly offered a new role, but declined to take it.

One source said: “Lindsay has been at the show for 20 years, she’s been a producer since 2012. They’re shaking things up.

“She was offered another job on the show, but she decided to move on.”

It’s not yet known if Shookus has taken a new job elsewhere yet.

She hit the headlines when she had an on-off relationship with Affleck, 50, between 2017-2019. The pair finally called it quits in April 2019.
