Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner demonstrated their amicable co-parenting approach by celebrating Thanksgiving together at Garner’s home in Los Angeles. Photos captured the moment when Affleck arrived with their son Samuel and what appeared to be his mother, Chris Boldt, as they gathered to enjoy the holiday.
An insider revealed that the former couple continued their tradition of spending Thanksgiving together, emphasizing that Garner goes out of her way to make the occasion special with her culinary skills. “Jen makes it very special. She’s such a great chef,” the source shared. Adding to the warmth of the gathering, the insider noted that Affleck is always welcome at Garner’s home, and she relishes having her family together for Thanksgiving.
Years after their highly publicized split in 2015, Garner has remained a supportive figure in Affleck’s life. “Jen’s his biggest cheerleader,” the insider remarked, highlighting that it took time for them to establish a friendly dynamic centered around their children. They share three kids: Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13.
Garner has been in a steady relationship with CaliBurger CEO John Miller since 2018, which the insider described as strong, noting that he is patient and understanding of her focus on family. “He’s a great guy and treats Jen very well. She loves dating him,” they added.
Affleck recently praised his co-parenting arrangement with Garner during the premiere of “Kiss of the Spider Woman” in New York, expressing pride in his children and gratitude for having a great partner in parenting. “I could not be more proud of my children, I can’t even tell you. It’s the joy of my life, and I’m just very, very lucky,” he said, capturing the essence of their positive co-parenting relationship.
While Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez has faced challenges following their divorce earlier this year, his continued connection with Garner underscores a hopeful narrative of cooperation and support for their children’s well-being. The former couple’s ability to celebrate the holidays together serves as an encouraging example of how ex-partners can maintain a friendly relationship for the sake of their family.
