The couple, who have been the subject of much speculation, were spotted separately but within hours of each other in the West Hollywood area of Los Angeles, entering the same building where Ben has an office for his production company, Artists Equity.

The outing took place on Wednesday, June 26, with TMZ capturing the moments. Ben, looking dapper in a suit and carrying a duffel bag over one shoulder, arrived around 10 a.m. Jennifer, equally stunning, was seen leaving the office a few hours later.

Ben Affleck spent Father's Day with his ex wife Jennifer Garner

On May 31, Live Nation announced that Jennifer would be canceling her concert tour, amidst what sources have described as strain in her marriage to Ben. 

The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2021 after an earlier split in 2004, tied the knot in a small Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, followed by a larger celebration with family and friends in Savannah, Georgia, the following month.

Earlier this year, rumors swirled about the state of their relationship, fueled by the fact that they hadn't been seen together for over a month.

Jennifer has been attending many red carpet events alone of late

Reports suggested that the couple was living separately, with Ben residing in a rental home. Despite these rumors, both Ben and Jennifer have been focusing on their families and work. They have been celebrating significant milestones, such as graduations in their children's lives.

Jennifer, the star of Marry Me, shares twins Emme and Max, 16, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony. Meanwhile, Ben is a devoted father to his three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.

 The blended family dynamic is certainly a central focus for both stars, who have been seen making concerted efforts to prioritize their kids.

Ben has been spending more time with his ex wife Jennifer Garner

Recently, Ben opened up about his relationship with his wife in an in-depth interview on the season 4 premiere of comedian Kevin Hart's show, Hart to Heart. 

The Oscar-winning discussed the stark contrast between their public personas, revealing that while he is "a little bit shy" in front of the camera while Jennifer embraces her superstardom with ease. 

"We went somewhere with [Jennifer]. I can't remember because she's so famous, and - people love her. And she really represents something important to people," Ben shared. "For me, people are like, 'Hey, I like your movie,' and then they're like 'AHHHH! J-LO!'" 

He described the phenomenon as "amazing" but admitted that he doesn't enjoy the constant attention that comes with fame. This aversion often leads to him appearing unhappy in photographs. 

"This is why people see me [and] they're like, 'Well, this dude is always mad…' Because somebody has their camera and is sticking it in my face," he explained, emphasizing his protective nature, especially towards his children.
