Ben Affleck met up with his former partners Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner to attend a joint school play in Los Angeles, California last Friday.
When the children finished their performance, the 52-year-old actor was spotted waiting patiently to congratulate both Fin, his child with Garner, and Emme, the 16-year-old stepchild who prefers gender-neutral pronouns (they/them).
After the play, Affleck shared a touching moment with Emme, Lopez’s child with Marc Anthony, giving them a hug and a kiss on the head before bidding farewell.
During the exchange, an eyewitness revealed to DailyMail.com that Lopez ‘looked on adoringly.’
The 55-year-old superstar looked every inch the supportive mom as she waited to give Emme a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
Lopez and Affleck were also seen having a conversation with each other as they mingled with the other attendees.
During their two-year marriage, which Lopez filed to end over the summer, Affleck and the Let’s Get Loud hitmaker mastered the art of integrating their two households into one blended family.

Affleck meanwhile was dashing as ever in a classic black suit, adding the casual touch of going without a tie for the evening.

Garner was dressed cozily for the winter, wearing a warm moss green split sweater that she layered over a white t-shirt.
