KEY POINTS

  • Ben Affleck bonded with his two kids this week
  • The actor just hung out with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner last week
  • Ben Affleck previously revealed that his divorce from Jennifer Garner is his biggest life regret 

Ben Affleck adorably bonded with two of his youngest children with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, this week.

The actor was photographed wearing his go-to attire which consists of a black button-down polo shirt, military green jacket, and brown pants. Affleck is holding a cup of fruit juice in the photo.

Standing beside the actor is his second daughter, Seraphina, who is wearing an oversized navy-blue sweater and dress. She is carrying a colorful backpack and lunchbox.

Also present during the outing is Affleck and Garner’s only son, Samuel. He is wearing a navy-blue jacket and matching navy-blue pants. The 7-year-old, who was born just a few years before his parents divorced, is seemingly holding on to a small waffle slice.

Affleck’s 14-year-old daughter, Violet, has not been photographed in public in months. The last time that she was spotted with her parents was when she attended a church service with them.

Garner didn’t also join her kids and ex-husband during the outing. But the “13 Going On 30” star was just with Affleck last week. The former couple was photographed with Samuel, who attended his classmate’s birthday party.

Photos of Affleck and Garner showed them chatting and listening intently to each other. The “Good Will Hunting” star was also seen staring at his ex-wife.

Earlier this month, Affleck told The New York Times that his biggest regret in life is divorcing Garner.

“The biggest regret of my life is this divorce. Shame is really toxic. There is no positive byproduct of shame. It’s just stewing in a toxic, hideous feeling of low self-worth and self-loathing,” he said.

Affleck went on to acknowledge the fact that beating himself up over his failures and relapses won’t be good for him.

“I have certainly made mistakes. I have certainly done things that I regret. But you’ve got to pick yourself up, learn from it, learn some more, try to move forward,” he said.
