Ben Affleck and his former spouse, Jennifer Garner, were recently observed sharing a private moment inside a car. Despite their divorce in 2018, the Hollywood stars, who split in 2015, frequently find themselves in close proximity due to co-parenting. In this latest sighting, their interaction appeared notably intimate.
This occurrence follows the surprise generated by a photograph featuring Ben Affleck alongside his and Jennifer Garner’s daughter, Violet. While the seventeen-year-old typically avoids the limelight, she recently attended a 4th of July celebration hosted by billionaire CEO Michael Rubin, accompanied by her father and his current wife, Jennifer Lopez. A snapshot taken at the event has since gone viral, with fans expressing awe at Violet’s striking resemblance to her mother.
Online reactions flooded in, with one person exclaiming, “OMG, I thought that WAS Jennifer Garner!” Another comment humorously noted, “It’s giving 13 going on 30.” Some fans playfully remarked that “Ben’s genes didn’t even try.”
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner share three children, with Violet being the eldest, followed by fourteen-year-old Seraphina and eleven-year-old Samuel. Their marriage, which lasted from 2005 to 2018, ended amicably, although Affleck has openly discussed the challenges leading to its conclusion.
However, Affleck and Garner are still close, as is proven by the latest paparazzi snaps of the pair. Page Six obtained the snaps, which see Affleck sat in the driver’s seat with daughter Seraphina on the passenger side, and Garner in the back.
Affleck, known for his roles in “Argo” and “Good Will Hunting,” has battled alcohol addiction and sought rehabilitation multiple times, in 2001, 2017, and 2018. Regarding the end of his first marriage, he emphasized, “The truth was, we took our time, we made the decision … We grew apart.”
“We had a marriage that didn’t work, this happens, with somebody that I love and respect, but to whom I shouldn’t be married any longer. Ultimately, we tried. We tried, we tried because we had kids,” Affleck reflected.
Despite the divorce, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner maintain a close relationship, as evidenced by recent paparazzi snapshots. Published by Page Six, the photos capture Affleck in the driver’s seat with daughter Seraphina beside him and Garner in the back. In a heartwarming display, Garner is seen leaning over the seat, embracing Affleck from behind, both wearing smiles.
