Ben Affleck can’t seem to escape his former wives. The actor recently showed up to an event at his children’s school alongside his first wife, Jennifer Garner. The pair may have divorced back in 2018, but they’ve remained close as they co-parent their three kids, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. Meanwhile, the star’s estranged wife, Jennifer Lopez, also showed up to the event on her own just weeks after filing for divorce from Affleck. While the event could have been awkward, it likely wasn’t a big deal for the trio as they’ve been put in similar situations in the past.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner came to the event together with their child, Fin. Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez attended with her child, Emme, and some other guests, per In Touch Weekly. The Gone Girl star kept his casual for the outing, sporting jeans and a jacket. Garner mimicked the look with a sweater, jeans, and black boots. Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez showed up in her usual glam look, sporting a gray jumpsuit and nude heels.

Affleck’s close co-parenting relationship with Garner has been well-documented over the years. The duo are often seen spending time together.
