Ben Affleck Cuddles Ex Jennifer Garner During Troubled Marriage to Jennifer Lopez


Exes People saw Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner cuddling up in the Air director’s car while their daughter sat in the passenger seat.

Page Six got pictures of the ex-couple holding hands in the car after Seraphina, one of their daughters, picked them up in Los Angeles on Friday.

The star of “13 Going on 30,” who was sitting in the back seat, moved forward to hug Affleck. Affleck, who was married to Jennifer Lopez at the time, leaned into the hug and showed off his wedding band.

The affection wasn’t one-sided, though. The Gone Girl star was caught leaning his head toward Garner and nestling against hers as she smiled at Seraphina.

Then, the director who had won awards drove Garner back to her own car.

As the Peppermint star got out of Affleck’s car, she gave him one more smile before getting into her own. She was wearing a white t-shirt, blue jeans, and a colorful plaid shirt.

After their 13-year marriage ended in 2018, Affleck and Garner, both 51, have stayed friends and are raising their three children, Violet Anne, Seraphina Rose Elizabeth, and Samuel Garner, together.

In fact, Affleck’s present wife, Jennifer Lopez, has praised the way he and Garner work together as co-parents. In 2022, she told Vogue that they “work well together.”

In 2021, Affleck and the Jenny From the Block singer got back together after breaking up in the early 2000s. This July, they will have been together for a year.

Some people have said that Affleck doesn’t have the strength to “stand up” to Lopez’s “extreme” tendency to micromanage, according to National Enquirer.
