Ben Affleck just proved that he could do it all. Other than being an actor, he’s also a doting dad who’s involved in the lives of his three children, namely, Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel. But this is not all. He’s also a newly married man to Jennifer Lopez and a wonderful co-parent with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
Ben Affleck Bonds With Son Samuel, Reunites With Ex-Wife Jennifer Garner
So, it didn’t really come as a surprise when Ben Affleck immediately reunited with Jennifer Garner just weeks after he tied the knot with Jennifer Lopez in Las Vegas. In fact, Affleck immediately bonded with his son, Samuel, who did not join him and his siblings in Paris for Affleck and Lopez’s honeymoon.
It’s unclear why Samuel did not join the trip, but Affleck and Garner’s two daughters were there. Lopez’s daughter, Emme, was also photographed bonding with Seraphina while they were on a yacht.
The father and son went to a public pool near Garner’s home in the Pacific Palisades. And the Alias star was also photographed with a female friend around the area. There were no photos of the exes together, but it’s highly likely that they crossed paths because they are in the same place.

Ben Affleck And Jennifer Garner Announced Their Separation In 2015
Affleck and Garner tied the knot in 2005, but they announced their decision to go their separate ways in 2015. At the time, multiple rumors surfaced that the A-listers’ marriage fell apart because of Affleck’s struggles with booze.
There were also whispers that Affleck cheated on Garner with their children’s former nanny, Christine Ouzounian. But during her interview with Vanity Fair, Garner clarified that this wasn’t really the case.
She said that her marriage was already falling apart even before the cheating rumors surfaced.
“We had been separated for months before I ever heard about the nanny. She had nothing to do with our decision to divorce. She was not a part of the equation. Bad judgment? Yes. It’s not great for your kids for [a nanny] to disappear from their lives. I have had to have conversations about the meaning of ‘scandal,’” Garner said.
Jennifer Garner Once Called Ben Affleck The Love Of Her Life
It was also during that interview that Garner confessed that if she could go back in time, she would marry Affleck again.
“I didn’t marry the big fat movie star; I married him. And I would go back and remake that decision. I ran down the beach to him, and I would again. You can’t have these three babies and so much of what we had. He’s the love of my life. What am I going to do about that? He’s the most brilliant person in any room, the most charismatic, the most generous. He’s just a complicated guy. I always say, ‘When his sun shines on you, you feel it.’ But when the sun is shining elsewhere, it’s cold. He can cast quite a shadow,” she gushed.
However, after just three years, Garner and Affleck decided to finalize their divorce. They never got back together, and they eventually moved on with their respective partners. Garner is currently dating her CEO boyfriend, John Miller.
