The devoted father and his daughter appeared to be enjoying some bonding time with each other.
While taking a break from his busy work schedule, Ben Affleck was seen spending some quality time with his adorable daughter. As he had lunch with his daughter Seraphina, 14, at Kai Ramen in Santa Monica, the devoted father and his daughter appeared to be enjoying some bonding time with each other.
While leaving the eatery with Seraphina, Affleck, who is believed to be directing the upcoming Batman movie The Brave and the Bold, maintained his casual appearance. He donned blue jeans, a gray sweatshirt, a gray puffer coat, and brown and white Nike sneakers with the ensemble. He kept his hair short and combed back, accessorized with stylish eyeglasses.
The doting daughter adhered to Affleck's casual dress code and wore a two-tone blue windbreaker over a black T-shirt with a graphic from the Beatles' Hard Days Night. She finished her look with white sneakers and red plaid flannel trousers. For the occasion, Seraphina wore her dark brown hair parted down the center. The father and daughter pair returned to the vehicle after having luch at the Japanese restaurant.
After Affleck hung out with his daughter, he engaged in more dad duties as he spent time with his other child, Samuel, the youngest of his three children. Affleck was seen in pictures later that day with the 11-year-old. The father-son pair was spotted traveling in actor's modified Electric Bronco.
In addition to Samuel and Seraphina, Affleck and his ex-wife actress Jennifer Garner also share a 17-year-old daughter named Violet. After ten years of marriage, the two decided to split and got divorced in April 2017, per PEOPLE.
Affleck married Jennifer Lopez in the summer of 2022. She has twins aged 14 from a prior relationship with singer Marc Anthony, per PageSix. In January, Lopez opened up about blending their families together, per Vogue. Affleck’s ex-wife is, Lopez said, “an amazing co-parent, and they work really well together.” Lopez shared how well the transition is for the children.

“The transition is a process that needs to be handled with so much care,” she said. “They have so many feelings. They’re teens. But it’s going really well so far. What I hope to cultivate with our family is that his kids have a new ally in me and my kids have a new ally in him, someone who really loves and cares about them but can have a different perspective and help me see things that I can’t see with my kids because I’m so emotionally tied up,” she elaborated.
Lopez also claimed that the Affleck-Lopez family is passionate and outspoken about a variety of political and social topics at their Los Angeles home. “This generation is beautifully aware and involved and brave,” she said, adding, “and they will call bullshit on stuff really quick. I want my kids to stand up for themselves and the things they care about. I want all the little girls in the world to get loud. Get loud! Say it when it’s wrong.”
