Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, and Jennifer Lopez Support Their Children at School Play

Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, and Jennifer Lopez recently came together to support their children at a school play. The event, which took place on Friday, December 13, saw the three stars in attendance to cheer on their kids, who were participants in the performance.

The play featured 15-year-old Seraphina, daughter of Affleck and Garner, and 16-year-old Emme, Lopez’s child. According to TMZ, which also shared photos of the celebrities arriving at the venue, the family dynamics were courteous and supportive. Affleck, dressed in a black suit, was seen engaging in a brief conversation with Emme before departing. Lopez opted for a striking ensemble, wearing a heavy white coat over a red blouse and jeans, while Garner kept it casual in jeans and a black athletic jacket.

This gathering is not the first time the trio has been seen at the same event, as their children attend the same school. Affleck and Garner, who split in 2015 after a decade of marriage, have continued to co-parent amicably, often coming together for family occasions. They were spotted together earlier in December, driving around Los Angeles after a breakfast outing in Brentwood, a sign of their ongoing commitment to family unity.

An insider revealed to PEOPLE that despite their past, Garner, who is now dating businessman John Miller, and Affleck intend to spend the holidays together with their children. The source emphasized Garner’s dedication to her children’s happiness, noting that the family had plans to continue their tradition of spending Christmas together.

Moreover, the Thanksgiving holiday saw the family volunteering at The Midnight Mission’s annual Thanksgiving Street Fair in Los Angeles, where they served meals to the homeless. This gesture underlines the family’s commitment to community service and spending meaningful time together.

While Jennifer Lopez has moved on from her romantic relationship with Affleck, having filed for divorce in August, she remains connected to his children. A source close to Lopez shared with PEOPLE that she continues to communicate with them and has ensured they feel supported by her and her family.

Despite the complexities of their relationships, it’s clear that Affleck, Garner, and Lopez prioritize their children’s well-being and family cohesiveness. Their ability to come together for their children’s activities and significant life events showcases a mature approach to co-parenting that keeps family at the forefront.
