Jennifer Garner Offers Glimpse into Ben Affleck’s Gentle Dad Moments

Jennifer Garner marked Father’s Day with a touching nod to her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, offering fans a rare look into their family life and enduring co-parenting bond.

On Sunday, June 15, the actress took to Instagram Stories to share a throwback photo of Affleck lying on a couch with one of their children peacefully asleep on his chest. The candid moment was paired with a sweet caption: “Happy Father’s Day to 3 people’s favorite landing spot.”

Garner, 53, and Affleck, 52, share three children—Violet (19), Seraphina (16), and Samuel (13). Though the couple ended their 13-year marriage in 2018, they’ve consistently prioritized their children and maintained a respectful, collaborative parenting relationship.

Affleck echoed that sentiment in a recent interview, saying, “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 and we work together well.”

He also reflected on how they’ve navigated public scrutiny as a family, recalling how they would explain tabloid headlines to their children: “We would say, ‘Well, you know, this isn’t always true…’”—a reminder of their shared commitment to honesty and stability at home.

Garner’s Father’s Day post not only honored Affleck’s role as a devoted dad but also underscored the strength of their co-parenting dynamic—one built on mutual respect, compassion, and a shared love for their children.
