Jennifer Garner Shares Sweet Father's Day Tribute To Ben Affleck: "Favorite Landing Spot"
After months of headline-making hangouts, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are back in the news this week — and this time, it's all because of Jen's sweet Father's Day tribute to Ben. The two stars have been divorced for a decade now, but it honestly seems like they just can't seem to stay out of each other's lives. Here's what the 13 Going On 30 star had to say about her why it feels like such a big deal. Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have always taken co-parenting seriously, so it's not surprising that Jen would have something kind to say about the father of her children, but what made this post extra-special was the sweet combination of the photo and the words that accompanied it. On June 15, 2025, Jen posted a photo to her Instagram story (see above), and captioned it, "Happy Father's Day to 3 people's favorite landing spot." This tribute comes after celebrating their daughter's (Violet Affleck) graduation, a family paintball outing, and a very busy holiday season together. Oh, on top of Ben's very public divorce from Jennifer Lopez. While Jen didn't say anything inherently romantic about her ex-husband, the photo is a rare look into their early days as parents together — and we'd be lying if we said it didn't feel intimate. The photo is clearly at the home Jen and Ben used to share, on what looks to be a late night of newborn parenting. Is this just Jen showing love to the man who helped build a family with her? Or could there be something more behind the message? Looking for more & news? Follow us on so you never miss a thing!

Jennifer Garner honors ex-husband Ben Affleck with never-before-seen photo on Father's Day 2025
Jennifer Garner is pulling back the curtain on Ben Affleck as a dad. The '13 Going on 30' star shared an intimate — and very rare — home photo of the Oscar winner via her Instagram Story while honoring him on Father's Day 2025. In the candid, never-before-seen snapshot, Affleck was seen laying on a couch with one of their three children sleeping comfortably on his chest. 'Happy Father's Day to 3 people's favorite landing spot,' Garner wrote along with her heartwarming shoutout Sunday. Garner and Affleck share kids Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13. The exes have maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship since announcing their separation in 2015 following 10 years of marriage. They ultimately finalized their divorce in 2018 after the 'Gone Girl' actor checked into rehab. Affleck, 52, recently praised the 'Alias' alum, 53, in his cover story for GQ's April 2025 issue. 'I'm really lucky that I have a really good co-parent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the kids' mom, who's wonderful and great,' the 'Air' star said. 'We work together well,' he added. A source previously told Page Six in March that Affleck would 'would love another chance' with Garner after settling his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The insider told us that the actor 'would definitely be open to giving things another shot with Jen if the timing is ever right.' Though, the source added, 'Ben knows it's just not realistic at this time in their lives.' However, we were told the 'feeling is not mutual' on Garner's part. A separate insider insisted the 'Deadpool & Wolverine' actress is 'happy' with her boyfriend, John Miller, who she's been dating since 2018. In fact, Garner and Miller were seen sharing a passionate kiss in a rare PDA moment in Los Angeles earlier this month.

Stony-faced Ben Affleck frostily reunites with 'love of his life' Jennifer Garner after her man moved in
They've remained on good terms as they raise three children together after their divorce. But Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner looked rather frosty as they reunited to pick up their 13-year-old son, Samuel, from the airport. Jennifer carried herself with a determined air and was engrossed in a conversation, her attention everted from her former spouse. Meanwhile, Affleck passed the time puffing on a cigarette, and a dramatic plume of smoke exhaled from his mouth. The Argo star appeared stone-faced, his aviator sunglasses providing him with a mysterious ambiance. Once they located their son, Jennifer was seen chatting with the youngster, who stayed occupied with a pair of large headphones. Jennifer and Ben, who were married from 2005 to 2018, also have two other children - Violet, 19, and Fin, 16. In the years since their shock split, both have moved on romantically, with Affleck even tying the knot with former flame Jennifer Lopez, whom he has since divorced. Jennifer, meanwhile, has been dating businessman John Miller since 2018. In the latest update of their relationship, Us Weekly reported that John is now living with the Alias actress 'part time.' 'John is basically living with Jennifer,' a source told the publication in April, noting it was only 'part time.' The site also claimed he moved out of his Los Angeles home after the wildfires ravaged several neighborhoods in the Southern California city, and he has yet to find a new pad. 'He has an office in L.A. and splits his time between staying there and at Jennifer's home,' the source said. 'But he's been staying with Jennifer more often [and] doesn't want to impose, so he's looking for his own place… [and] deciding whether he'll rent or buy.' It all comes several months after Affleck was seen embracing Garner during a paintballing outing with their children, with a source telling at the time that the actor came to the realization after his reunion with Lopez that the Maid In Manhattan actress was not 'the love of his life', but Garner was.

Jennifer Garner passionately kisses boyfriend John Miller in rare PDA moment
Things are heating up between Jennifer Garner and her boyfriend John Miller. The duo passionately kissed in a steamy embrace outside his Los Angeles home, according to photos published by TMZ on Friday. The snaps showed Garner, 53, wearing a casual blue plaid shirt and black pants while making out with Miller, 47. She also clutched her keys and a phone during the al fresco encounter. Miller was similarly low-key in a gray T-shirt and jeans. The pics put a damper on speculation that Garner and her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, could reunite following 'The Accountant 2' star's divorce from Jennifer Lopez after two years of marriage. After photos of Affleck, 52, embracing Garner during a family paintball outing emerged in March, rumors kicked into overdrive. 'They really do have a close bond,' a source told Page Six in January of the exes, who share kids Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13. An insider told Page Six in March that Miller had issued an ultimatum amid the former couple's increasing time together with their children. Garner's longtime boyfriend, whom she has been dating on and off since 2018, 'has always been supportive of Ben and Jen's co-parenting relationship but feels Ben crossed the line,' the source said at the time. 'John knows there's nothing going on between Jen and Ben, but he doesn't think those photos are a good look and feels it's disrespectful to their relationship.' They added, 'He doesn't want to see anything like that again or he has no choice but to walk away.' For his part, Affleck 'would love another chance' with Garner, a source exclusively told Page Six in March. Though the insider said the 'Air' actor 'would definitely be open to giving things another shot with Jen if the timing is ever right,' they added that 'Ben knows it's just not realistic at this time in their lives.' 'Ben just got out of a marriage and finalized his divorce [from Jennifer Lopez], he is really busy with work and is focused on this new chapter,' they explained, adding that the 'Justice League' star 'respects Jen's relationship with John [Miller] and would never come between them.' The '13 Going on 30' actress apparently isn't at all interested in rekindling a romance with Affleck. The 'feeling is not mutual,' a source for Page Six said in March. Garner is 'happy' with the CaliBurger CEO and 'that's just not where her head is at.' 'Jen has a great co-parenting relationship with Ben, and that's where things stand on her end at the moment,' they said.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's daughter Violet reveals which relative she's leaning on amid climate 'controversy'
Violet Affleck was enjoying some down time in the ritzy Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles on Wednesday. The 19-year-old daughter of actors Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck is on her summer break from Yale University in Connecticut where she just completed her freshman year. The teenager was with a family member when getting lunch on a sunny day. She has some famous people in her family apart from her parents: her former stepmother is Jennifer Lopez and her uncle is Casey Affleck. Violet chose to spend the afternoon with dad Ben's mother, Christopher Anne 'Chris' Boldt, a Harvard-educated elementary school teacher. The Oscar-winning actor's mother was dressed chicly in a white cardigan and slacks with black strappy wedge heels. Violet was in a black shirt with a long floral-print skirt, white sneakers and her furry Chloe purse on her shoulder. The brunette was with a family member when getting lunch on a sunny day. Violet chose to spend the afternoon with dad Ben's mother, Christopher Anne 'Chris' Boldt, a Harvard-educated elementary school teacher Affleck and Garner — whose divorce was finalized in 2018 — are also parents to Fin, 16, and Samuel, 13. Both parents have moved on. Ben was wed to Jennifer Lopez for two years before their union ended in divorce earlier this year. Violet seemed to be close to Lopez when the star was her stepmother, but in recent months they have not been photographed together. Ben and Jennifer both seem to be single since their divorce. Meanwhile, Garner has been dating CEO John Miller for the past several years as it's reported they now live together. This sighting comes after Violet sparked outrage over an essay for school where she candidly revealed a disagreement she had with Garner. She had turned in the paper for her university's Global Health Review which was titled A Chronically Ill Earth: COVID Organizing as a Model Climate Response in Los Angeles. The college student has been vocal about her advocacy for both climate change and public health - such as the student demanding 'mask mandates' last year during an impassioned speech According to the teen, the past incident had taken place amid the devastating LA fires in January after her family was forced to evacuate. Fans were shocked when Violet sported a very expensive designer items this month. She had on Chloe Nama shoes that are priced around $800, per the brand's official website. Last week, the student was also seen with a vintage Chloe Marcie Bucket Bag, which can be purchased at a resale price for around $1,000. Days earlier, she was also spotted with a pricy Marc Jacobs bag, which is worth between $200–$300. Critics wondered how she could wear such expensive designer goods after complaining about climate change, but both items could have been recycled from her mother's closet. Last year during an interview with People, Garner got candid about raising her three kids and shared that she found it 'hard' to let them make their own decisions as they get older. 'I'm just watching them in this new phase of life where they're figuring out who they're going to be and what they're going to study,' she explained. 'And I'm so interested in them. All the time, I'm interested in everything about them.' The actress later admitted to the outlet, 'I have a really hard time not saying, "This is what I see you as," and "I think you should." I really have to sit on my hand.'
