Ben Affleck and ex-wife Jennifer Garner REUNITE at 11-year-old son Samuel’s basketball game alongside their daughter Violet Affleck, 17, in Los Angeles after overcoming ‘dr:аmа of the past’

Entertainment — 09/23/2024

Ben Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner put on a united front as they reunited at their son Samuel’s basketball game at the Santa Monica Family YMCA on Saturday afternoon.

 

As the family left the gym together, the Gone Girl star and actress, both 51, were seen catching up as she dropped off their little boy, 11, and daughter Violet Affleck, 17, to spend some quality time with their dad.

While speaking to his former spouse, the two-time Oscar winner spun a basketball on his fingertips as Samuel and his mother exchanged a hug goodbye.

For the laid-back occasion, Affleck, who is married to singer Jennifer Lopez, sported a ‘Jerry Remy Fight Club’ t-shirt and a pair of light-wash jeans.
