In a new interview with Stellar Magazine, the 13 Going On 30 star revealed that she tries to avoid reading media coverage of her famous ex, as the couple remains friends and co-parent their children.
Garner and Affleck married in 2005 but separated a few years later. They have been spotted out and about with their three kids — Violet, 17, Seraphina, 14, and Samuel, 11 — several times over the years and seem to have a close relationship with each other.
In a recent promotional interview for her show Party Down, Garner said she makes a concerted effort to avoid press stories about herself or anyone in her family. This makes sense, as the 50-year-old is a busy woman these days.
She drew the crowds at a recent red-carpet event for her movie Elektra and also appeared on NBC’s The Voice, which she co-hosts with Katy Perry. Her most recent projects include an upcoming film starring Tom Hanks and the reboot of her popular series Kingdom.
Despite her busy schedule, Garner has managed to keep up with her Instagram account and has even posted a few TikTok clips that have gotten some attention. One of her most recent posts was a fun smooch photo.
Jennifer and Ben Affleck dated from 2002 to 2003, and the Good Will Hunting actor proposed to the Waiting for Tonight singer with a striking 6-carat diamond ring in November of that year. After a brief breakup, the two rekindled their romance and tied the knot in May 2021.
Affleck and Lopez are still hanging out nearly two decades after their high-profile relationship took the world by storm. The duo reportedly enjoy quality time together and have even been spotted driving to Lopez’s Los Angeles home in a white SUV.
The most important thing to know about this couple is that they’re still friends and they love being a family. However, they’ve also made their co-parenting relationship appear seamless, which takes a lot of work and communication.
