They are a picture-perfect family until people who see them realize they are already divorced and just have a good co-parenting relationship. This is what hidden cameras are showing recently as Jennifer Garner perched on the front doorsteps, reading a book to her daughter, Seraphina. Afterward, ex-husband Ben Affleck came out of from the house and joined them.
In a recent candid photo of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, their daughter Seraphina was there, giving it a picture-perfect scene. Fans can't help but wonder what happened to this beautiful family but the same goes with the rest of the ordinary families out there, that there is no such thing as perfect. Sadly, Garner and Affleck are at their best when they are separated and that is what people call it "bittersweet."
It was more or less 13 years of marriage and the former A-list couple has been obviously trying their best to save it, starting from 2015 as they announced their separation, fans thought they can still find a way. Apparently, it was Jennifer Garner who was at her heels giving Ben Affleck the pep talk he needed, as she became an instrumental part in his therapies and alcohol addiction rehab. However, Garner and Affleck learned to have lives outside their marriage permanently as their divorce was then finalized in October 2018.
Despite the unfortunate ending of their marriage, the Alias star and Justice League actor realized how their children were caught in between the family's problem. The estranged couple even incorporated on their divorce clause how each of them should be within reach for their children as Ben Affleck still maintains a house near Jennifer Garner. With this scenario, they were able to have an amicable relationship and even strengthened their friendship as the two stars are frequently seen together for walks in tr neighborhood.
Jennifer Garner is apparently still in a relationship with businessman Jon Miller while Ben Affleck ended his long-distance relationship with TV producer Lindsay Shookus. Clearly enough what the fans are seeing is just effective co-parenting, as they will be seeing more of them together, especially with their children during soccer matches and school activities. The Triple Frontier star together with his ex-wife, are parents to Seraphina, 10, Violet, 13, and Samuel, seven.
And even though Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck might not agree anymore when it comes to romance, the pair seemed to be on the same page with raising their children. The estranged couple's divorce came after Ben Affleck's rehab to address alcohol addiction, an effort in the part of Jennifer Garner became an effective intervention to save the harmony in their home. In an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres show, the 46-year old actor admitted that he is now in a much better place and instead of being embarrassed, he felt "grateful" after what he has been through.
