Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have been divorced for years, but they are still very much a part of each other’s lives.
The 52-year-old actor recently mentioned his relationship with Garner, also 52, and what it was like to co-parent their three children — Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13 — during an interview with GQ that was published on Tuesday, March 25.

“I’m really lucky that I have a really good co-parent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the kids’ mom,” Affleck told the outlet, sharing that she is “wonderful and great” and that they “work together well.”
The star of Good Will Hunting also spoke about how he and Garner handle being the topic of numerous articles in the news and media when it comes to their kids during the interview.
“What I’ve ended up focusing on is: Look, I know what’s going on in my life. And also, really more importantly, my kids know,” Affleck told GQ and went on to explain, “We used to have a thing, my ex-wife and I, when they would see something on a supermarket stand, we would say, ‘Well, you know this isn’t always true because if it were, you would have 15 brothers or sisters or whatever the number of stories is where they said that your mom was pregnant.’”
Affleck and Garner got married in 2005 and welcomed their three children before they split in 2015. Both stars currently live in Los Angeles, California, and work together to co-parent their children.
The Academy-Award winner also broke his silence about his more recent divorce from Jennifer Lopez in the same article. The two were married in 2022 and finalized their divorce in January this year.
