Former couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner marked this year’s Thanksgiving with a family-focused reunion in Los Angeles. The two spent the holiday together with their three children, sharing a meal that Garner prepared and fostering a supportive atmosphere for their family.
According to PEOPLE, Garner hosted the gathering, continuing a tradition from previous years. A source close to her described the actress as a “great chef” who enjoys bringing the family together, emphasizing that Affleck, along with his mother, was included on the guest list. The insider noted, “Ben’s always welcome at her house,” highlighting their amicable relationship post-divorce.
This Thanksgiving celebration included their children: Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel. Reports indicate that Affleck and Garner have maintained a positive co-parenting dynamic, supporting each other, particularly in their roles as parents. The source added that Affleck is focusing on his career, health, and spending quality time with the kids.
The holiday spirit extended beyond their family gathering. Garner continued her tradition of community service by volunteering at The Midnight Mission in Los Angeles, where she helped distribute free meals to those in need. This charitable act mirrors her involvement from the previous year, showcasing her commitment to giving back during the holiday season. Despite her relationship with partner John Miller, which has had its ups and downs since 2018, the source mentioned that he supports her family-oriented priorities.
Earlier this fall, Affleck expressed pride in his children during the premiere of his produced film, Kiss of the Spider-Woman. He highlighted his daughter Violet’s work with the United Nations, stating, “I feel very, very lucky to have such an awesome, supportive family.” Affleck emphasized the joy his family brings him, saying, “It’s the joy of my life, and I’m just very, very lucky. And it makes me happy every day.”
The Thanksgiving reunion of Affleck and Garner serves as a reminder of their enduring partnership as co-parents and their commitment to family values, even years after their separation.
