Ben Affleck made headlines this Thanksgiving after spending the holiday with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, despite his ongoing divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The pair, who were married from 2005 to 2018, shared a heartwarming reunion, looking cheerful as they came together for a meaningful cause.

The 52-year-olds participated in a charitable event at The Midnight Mission in Los Angeles, a nonprofit focused on helping the homeless. They teamed up with volunteers to serve Thanksgiving meals to over 2,000 individuals in need. Both Affleck and Garner wore aprons emblazoned with the words “I love the Midnight Mission,” and dressed casually for the occasion. Garner wore a cozy blue sweater and jeans, with her hair simply pinned back, while Affleck donned a dark button-up shirt under his apron.

The couple’s three children — Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12 — also joined them at the event, further emphasizing the family’s dedication to giving back to the community. During the day, Affleck was seen leaning in to whisper something to Garner, sparking curiosity and affection from onlookers and fans. Many expressed their support, with one commenter noting, “She makes him a better man. She will always be the one who got away,” while another said, “He always looks happy when he’s with her.”

This reunion comes amid Affleck’s ongoing divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2022 after a previous engagement ended in 2004, married in July 2022. However, Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, with April 26, 2024, cited as their separation date.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez was seen spending time with friends in Los Angeles ahead of Thanksgiving, sporting a classic look in a white button-down shirt and blue jeans.
