Ben Affleck recently celebrated his 52nd birthday, but it was his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, who caught the public’s attention during the special day. On August 15, Garner was seen visiting Affleck at his Brentwood rental, where the actor currently resides. Known for maintaining a friendly relationship post-divorce, the former couple’s interaction comes amid ongoing speculation about Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez.
Jennifer Garner was dressed casually in a striped white T-shirt and navy trousers, opting for a makeup-free look. Her choice of attire and accessories, including delicate silver earrings and an Apple Watch, suggested a low-key visit rather than a celebratory one. Garner’s visit to Affleck has sparked conversations, especially given her history of being supportive of Affleck during challenging times.
Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez took a different approach to marking the occasion. Instead of sharing new photos with Affleck, Lopez posted throwback images from her own birthday celebration last month. The photos, taken at her lavish Bridgerton-themed party in the Hamptons, have drawn attention not only for their timing but also for Affleck’s noticeable absence. This has fueled further rumors about potential marital issues between the couple, who haven’t been seen together since March.
Affleck and Garner, who share three children—Violet, 18; Seraphina, 15; and Samuel, 12—continue to co-parent effectively. Despite living separately, Lopez has also been involved in the lives of Affleck’s children, particularly forming a close bond with Violet.
As rumors of tension between Affleck and Lopez continue, Garner’s visit and Lopez’s nostalgic posts have added another layer to the ongoing speculation surrounding their relationships.
Jennifer Garner’s cameo in the action-packed Deadpool 3 delighted fans with both her return to the superhero genre and her sharp, humorous dialogue. Garner reprised her role as Elektra nearly two decades after her initial portrayal in the 2003 Marvel film Daredevil, where she starred opposite her then-husband, Ben Affleck. This nostalgic return was marked by a witty exchange that humorously referenced her past relationship with Affleck amid ongoing rumors of his split from Jennifer Lopez.
