KEY POINTS

  • Jennifer Garner and Violet were temporary roommates after the actress' divorce
  • Violet attended church service with Ben Affleck on Sunday
  • Jennifer Garner bonded with Samuel a day later 

Jennifer Garner’s eldest daughter, Violet, played a crucial role in the actress’ life after she and Ben Affleck divorced.

In 2015, the couple released a joint statement announcing the end of their marriage. A year later, Garner told Vanity Fair that she has been having a hard time sleeping at night.

Other than watching Tina Fey and Amy Poehler on her phone, Garner has also decided to sleep next to Violet. The mother and daughter became temporary roommates while the “13 Going On 30” star was adjusting to her life as a single woman.

“I’m happy to have her; she’s happy to have me,” Garner said at that time.

Violet, who is now 14 years old, gets to spend quality time with both of her parents. In fact, Garner and Affleck were both present when she celebrated her recent birthday.

And just this week, the teenager was photographed hanging out with her dad. Affleck and Violet attended a church service together, and their photos show Affleck with his arm wrapped around his daughter’s shoulder.

The “Batman v Superman” star is wearing his signature shirt, jacket, pants, and rubber shoes. Violet, on the other hand, is wearing a violet sweatshirt, a black floral dress, and white Nike sneakers.

Garner and Affleck’s eldest child didn’t also wear her eyeglasses during the church service. She was also photographed holding a piece of paper in her hand.

Affleck and Violet weren’t joined by Garner and the former couple’s two younger children, Seraphina and Samuel. But just one day later, the “Peppermint” star was photographed strolling with her son in Brentwood.

Garner was photographed in her white shirt, navy-blue jacket, jeans, and flats. Her son wore a blue jacket, jeans, a white shirt, and green sneakers.

The actress was also seen holding the hands of her only son. At one point, Garner even looked straight into the camera and gave the paparazzi a beautiful smile.
