Ben Affleck embraced the Halloween vibe this past Friday by taking his 15-year-old child, Fin, to pick out some costumes. Photos shared by Page Six on September 27 show the pair outside a Spirit Halloween store in Los Angeles, looking upbeat as they strolled together. Although it’s uncertain whether they made any costume purchases, they certainly seemed to be enjoying each other’s company.
At 52, Affleck has been spending more time with his kids from his previous marriage to Jennifer Garner. Alongside Fin, whose full name is Seraphina, he’s also been spotted with his 12-year-old son, Samuel, and 18-year-old daughter, Violet, while navigating his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, who primarily stays in New York City.
The interactions between Affleck and Lopez show signs of a friendly split. On September 14, they were noticed at the Beverly Hills Hotel with their kids, even holding hands and sharing a kiss, a detail that caught many by surprise, according to an eyewitness who told Page Six.
Shortly after, the ex-couple attended their kids’ back-to-school night together and maintained a pleasant demeanor. However, just a few days later, they both visited celebrity divorce attorney Laura Wasser’s office on September 23, hinting at the complexities that lie beneath their amicable appearances.
The public has closely followed Affleck and Lopez’s relationship since their first engagement in 2002, which famously fell through in 2004. After rekindling their romance in 2021, they got engaged again in April 2022 and married in July of that year. Yet, amid rumors of tensions starting in mid-2024, they filed for divorce on August 20, 2024.
