Jennifer Garner posted a pH๏τo from the past after a tender embrace she received from ex-husband Ben Affleck led to rumors of a rekindled romance.
Garner, 52, shared a throwback pH๏τo Tuesday wishing happy birthday to John Foraker, the CEO of her food brand Once Upon A Farm Organics.
‘To celebrate the birthday of @onceuponafarm’s beloved CEO, @jforaker11, I’m sharing a picture of us from our first year with the company.
‘We are older than we were here, but we’re still smiling!’ she wrote of the pH๏τo, which depicted them posing proudly beside their logo.
Once Upon A Farm, which sells a variety of nutritious snacks and food for children, was founded in 2015 by Cᴀssandra Curtis and Ari Raz. Garner, who also co-founded the company, and Foraker later joined on.
The post comes after new video obtained exclusively by Daily Mail captured Jennifer being hugged by her ex-husband, leading to rumors of a rekindled romance.

The pair were paintballing at the Combat Paintball Park in Castaic near Los Angeles on Sunday with their children, Fin, 16, and Sam, 13. Their eldest, 19-year-old Violet, is away studying at Yale.

The moment occurred just weeks after his divorce from Jennifer Lopez was finalized in late February.
In the bombshell footage, Affleck, 52, can be seen casually wrapping his arm around Garner’s waist in a clear display of intimacy.
Garner is focused on the task at hand, pointing her paintball gun forwards, but Affleck seems distracted, standing close to his ex-wife with his own gun dangling by his side.
As he draws her in towards him with a hand around her lower waist and holds her close for a few seconds, Garner’s hips appear to briefly reciprocate, leaning back into the embrace.
Rumors of a romantic re-kindling between the pair — who were married for 13 years from 2005 until 2018 — have swirled for months, with Garner regularly seen supporting Affleck through his protracted second break-up with JLo, 55.
Representatives for both Affleck and Garner did not respond to requests for comment, but DailyMail.com’s source said: ‘Ben is not Jen’s boyfriend, nor is he her husband anymore. John [Miller] is her partner, and she is happy in her relationship. Ben’s friends truly believe that if Jen and John split, that he would get back together with her in a heartbeat. But that is not the case, and Ben respects her relationship with John.’
Potentially stirring the pot, the source added: ‘Does it bother John when he sees the two of them being touchy-feely? Sure. It would get to anyone, but this is nothing new. Ben and Jen have a unique relationship, especially for exes. He loves her more than any woman he has ever loved besides his mom. But he also accepts that this cannot be. Not while she is devoted to someone else. Ben will always flirt with Jen, and she sees it as innocent.’
Garner has reportedly been dating tech CEO John Miller since 2018.

Last December, the actress sparked engagement rumors when she flashed a sparkling ring on her wedding finger, only to remove it days later.
Affleck and JLo rekindled their romance — from the early 2000s, predating his marriage to Garner — in 2021, before tying the knot in a Las Vegas ceremony the following July.
But problems in the marriage started almost immediately, with insiders later revealing that they were even ‘unhappy’ on their Italian honeymoon.
Come 2024, things were rapidly deteriorating, at which point Garner reportedly stepped in as a ‘mediator’ and ‘marriage counselor’.

Affleck reportedly then spent both Thanksgiving and Christmas with Garner and their children.
It’s a support system that certainly makes sense.
Affleck, who has been open about his battle with alcoholism, first went into rehab in 2001, before returning in 2017 and 2018. Garner stayed by his side throughout.
In recent weeks, it appears to have been Affleck’s moment to return the favor. Garner has reportedly been struggling, exhausted from extensive volunteer work supporting the victims of the recent LA fires.
