Ex- spouses Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have spent the holidays together.
The 52-year-old actor was married to the 13 Going on 30 star, who is also 52, from 2005 to 2018. The two have three children - 19-year-old Violet, Finn, 15, and 12-year-old Samuel. Despite their separation, according to inside sources, they spent Christmas together for the sake of their children.
"Jen and Ben were together for Christmas. It's all for the kids. Jen grew up surrounded by her family for the holidays, and she wants the same for her kids," a source shared.
Following their breakup, Ben rekindled his relationship with 55-year-old pop star Jennifer Lopez, nearly 20 years after they called off their engagement. The couple married in 2022, but earlier this year she filed for divorce.
Meanwhile, actress Jennifer has been dating businessman John K. Miller since 2018 and despite their brief separation in 2020, they were believed to have reunited in 2021.
Earlier this year, Ben and his first wife volunteered at the Thanksgiving Street Fair, where they spent the day feeding the homeless.
"At the beginning of the year, at the end of the year, they met homeless people. "They really love giving back to their community and cherish the quality time spent together as a family," a source said.
Another source claimed at the time that Jennifer wanted to "include" her ex-husband in her life because the kids liked it when they were all together, but also insisted that their relationship was completely platonic.
"She will continue to make sure they spend time together as a family and include Ben. The kids enjoy when everyone spends time together. Jen is grateful that Ben is doing well. They're friends, but that's it," he added. | BGNES
