Ben Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner were recently spotted attending a nighttime event in Brentwood, Los Angeles, with their 15-year-old daughter, Seraphina. The former couple, both 52, appeared relaxed and casual during the outing, sparking interest as they spent time together amid Affleck’s divorce from Jennifer Lopez.
Affleck, known for his laid-back style, donned jeans, a distressed red graphic tee, and a maroon sherpa-lined jacket. Garner, staying true to her classic fashion sense, wore a black coat paired with raw-hem blue jeans and black shoes. Their daughter Seraphina matched the casual mood in an all-black outfit, rounding out the family’s appearance at the event.
The gathering also saw the attendance of Jennifer Lopez, Affleck’s estranged wife, who arrived with her 16-year-old daughter, Emme, and a group of friends. Lopez, 55, turned heads with her chic ensemble, sporting a belted jumpsuit and neutral-colored pumps. Despite their ongoing separation, Affleck and Lopez maintained their focus on their respective children and personal lives.
Lopez’s presence at the event comes just weeks after she filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, citing irreconcilable differences. The split marks the end of their whirlwind romance and highly publicized marriage, and Lopez has since spoken candidly about the emotional toll it took on her.
In an interview with Interview magazine, Lopez opened up about how she was blindsided by the breakup. “I felt my whole f**king world exploded,” she shared, reflecting on the personal impact of their separation. She went on to explain that she had hoped for a more complete relationship but ultimately realized she needed time for self-reflection. “You have to be complete if you want something that’s more complete… I thought I learned that, but I didn’t. And then, this summer, I had to be like, ‘I need to go off and be on my own. I want to prove to myself that I can do that.'”
Despite the heartbreak, Lopez expressed gratitude for the lessons she learned during the difficult period. “Thank you, God. I’m sorry it took me so long. I’m sorry that you had to do this to me so many times. I get it,” she said, acknowledging the personal growth she’s gained through the experience.
While Lopez processes the emotional aftermath of their split, Affleck has reportedly shifted his focus to work and spending time with his children. According to Hello, Affleck “never looked back” after the breakup, choosing to prioritize his family, particularly his close bond with Garner.
Interestingly, sources also reveal that Garner played a supportive role in encouraging Affleck to work on his marriage with Lopez before the couple ultimately decided to part ways. The exes, who share three children together, continue to co-parent amicably and maintain a strong family dynamic.
As for Garner, she has moved forward with her own personal life. The actress is said to be rekindling her relationship with businessman John Miller, with whom she’s been romantically linked for several years. The couple is reportedly looking forward to deepening their bond as Garner continues to navigate her post-divorce life with Affleck.
With Lopez and Affleck both moving on in different directions, their intertwined relationships remain a topic of interest for fans and media alike, especially as they continue to focus on their respective families and futures.
