Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s close co-parenting relationship continues to capture public attention, especially after their recent Thanksgiving reunion. The former couple, who share three children—Violet (19), Seraphina (15), and Samuel (12)—were spotted volunteering at the Midnight Mission in downtown Los Angeles before enjoying a family dinner together.
Wearing matching aprons and gloves, they spent hours serving meals to the homeless community, earning praise from the organization for their kindness and dedication.
Despite having moved on to other relationships since their divorce, the duo’s bond remains strong.
Affleck married Jennifer Lopez in 2022, only to separate earlier this year, while Garner has been in a long-term relationship with John Miller. Nevertheless, Affleck and Garner’s recent interactions have sparked speculation that they might be rekindling their romance, fueled by their mutual respect and transformation over time.
Affleck has openly discussed his struggles with alcohol addiction and the impact it had on his marriage to Garner.
After getting sober and undergoing personal growth, he has expressed regret over their divorce, calling it “the biggest regret of my life.” For her part, Garner has acknowledged his progress, which has deepened her feelings toward him.
“She’s seen the progress and transformation, and it’s changed how she feels about him,” a source close to the family revealed.
Their recent vacations, including a trip to Japan and celebrations for Ben’s 52nd birthday, coupled with the milestone of dropping their daughter Violet off at Yale, have strengthened their bond.
As the former couple continues to navigate co-parenting, some close friends wonder if they may eventually rekindle their romance, given their transformed relationship.
In the midst of his personal transformation, Affleck has reportedly stated that Garner was “the best thing to ever happen to him,” and while their romantic future remains uncertain, the affection and mutual respect between them appear stronger than ever.
