Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner raised a few eyebrows on Friday when they were photographed out together in Los Angeles, not just because of the reunion itself, but because they turned up wearing virtually identical outfits.
Both the 53-year-old actor and his 54-year-old ex-wife stepped out in light blue sweaters and jeans, a coincidence that photographers captured and Just Jaredpublished on 22 May.
Whether it was planned or simply one of those uncanny co-parenting moments, it made for a charming set of pictures.
The pair have come a long way since their separation in 2015, which ended a decade of marriage and a relationship that had its roots in Hollywood long before that.
They first met on the set of Pearl Harborin 2000, reconnected while filming Daredevilin 2003, and began dating in 2004 before marrying the following year.
Together they have three children, Violet, Seraphina and Samuel.
Affleck told The New York Timesin 2020 that the divorce remained his biggest regret. “Shame is really toxic. There is no positive by-product of shame,” he said.
Garner has been equally candid.
“The actual breaking up of a family is what was hard,” she told Marie Claire UKearlier this year. “Losing a true partnership and friendship is what was hard.”
