Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Are All Smiles on Fall Walk Together in Santa Monica
The former couple were spotted smiling and chatting as they caught up in California.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are enjoying their friendship in the fall.
On Thursday, the actor, 51, — who married actress and singer Jennifer Lopez in July 2022 — and his ex-wife Garner, also 51, were spotted smiling and chatting as they caught up in Santa Monica, California.
The former couple share three children together, Violet Anne, 17, Seraphina Rose, 14 and Samuel, 11, and have been co-parenting since they finalized their divorce in October 2018.
While Affleck is known for his appreciation of coffee, including Dunkin’ Donuts’ beverages in particular, it was his actress ex-wife who held onto a coffee as they walked together in casual fall attire.

The Argo actor and director opted for a light blue puffer jacket, dark blue sweater and beige pants, while Garner sported a dark blue jacket, blue jeans and sunglasses.
Although the former husband and wife have both moved on romantically, they share custody of their children and a post-divorce friendship, with the Alias actress — who is dating chairman and CEO of Cali Group, John Miller – hinting at their positive relationship in a Father’s Day post on Instagram earlier this year.

Back in March, Affleck discussed how being a dad of three had influenced his career decisions, including starting his own production company, Artists Equity, a move that gives him more opportunity to be in Los Angeles and spend time with his children.
“One of the reasons I did it was, I’m divorced. I share custody. I don’t want to go to Austin and New Orleans and Georgia anymore and not see my kids,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in a March 16 interview.
“It just doesn’t work. These years are too important. If I miss them, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life,” he added.
A month later, Garner also talked about her work and being a parent, noting that her children aren’t always delighted to see her on the screen.
“My kids don’t love to watch me in things. They do to be supportive, but I think it’s a little weird to watch your mom kiss someone or cry,” she said in an interview with InStyle published in April, adding, “It’s different.”
“They don’t mind watching their dad,” Garner continued. “They don’t want to see me sad, and they don’t want to see me in a romance. They don’t love seeing me play someone else’s mom, honestly.” source: people.com
