They’ve been raising three children together and have remained amicable ever since ending their marriage seven years ago.
And Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner kept their co-parenting relationship going on Easter Sunday.
The Alias actress, 53, was spotted driving away from Ben’s Brentwood residence on Sunday and their son Samuel, 13, appeared to be in the front seat of the vehicle.
That same day Samuel was spotted out with his father leaving World Market, where they picked up multiple bags worth of items.
Ben, 52, was carrying a tote bag with an intriguing spiritual design on it.
The accessory was designed with a variation of The Sun tarot card, which signifies success, radiance, and abundance, according to Labyrinthos.

A pair of aviator shades were neatly tucked into his neckline.
Much like this father, Samuel also wore a blue top and even left the store carrying similar sunglᴀsses.
Samuel is one of three children Ben shares with his ex Jennifer. In addition to Samuel, Ben and Jennifer – who were married from 2005 to 2018 – have Violet, 19, and Fin, 16, together.
Last month Ben praised Jennifer and their co-parenting partnership during an interview with British GQ.
‘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.’
Last month, the pair were seen embracing during an outing, sending the internet into a frenzy.

Daily Mail later learned Garner is ‘deathly afraid of falling back in love’ with the actor, with a source saying she still has ‘trust issues’ with Affleck after he slept with their children’s nanny, Christine Ouzounian, now 37, a decade ago.
‘She loves Ben but is worried that he will crush her all over again,’ the source said.
‘She doesn’t want to heal another broken heart because it is just too much drama, plus she does not want their kids to see round two of their mom in a bad place with their dad.
‘So much could go wrong if they reunite.’
The pH๏τos of Affleck tenderly embracing his ex-wife also resulted in Garner’s boyfriend John Miller feeling a bit bothered about their ‘touchy-feely’ behaviour, sources claimed.

He went on to marry former flame Jennifer Lopez several years after his divorce from Garner. ‘Bennifer’ went on to officially divorce this year; pictured 2023
‘It would get to anyone, but this is nothing new,’ the insider said. ‘Ben and Jen have a unique relationship, especially for exes.’
In March 2016, Garner detailed to Vanity Fair how her heart was ‘tender’ after her 10-year marriage to Affleck crumbled.
Affleck has not spoken much about his divorce from Jennifer Lopez but was pH๏τographed spending more time with first wife Garner in the months that followed.
The Argo actor wed Lopez in 2022 and she filed for divorce last year following months of speculation. The marriage officially ended earlier this year.
The 13 Going On 30 star was said to have played a key role in helping her ex-husband through his split from Lopez, adopting the role of ‘marriage counsellor’ to the struggling couple, with some friends feared she had been forced to ‘play mediator.’
