Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck were married from 2005 to 2018 and share three children together - Violet, Seraphina and Samuel
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are famously proud - and private - parents.
The Yes Day actress and the Gone Girl star split in 2015 after 10 years of marriage, officially divorcing three years later. Together, they co-parent their three children: Violet Anne, 17, Seraphina Rose, 13, and Samuel, 11.
Over the years, the former pair have worked hard to keep their kids out of the spotlight, particularly regarding paparazzi photos and social media. In 2013, Garner joined a group of celebrity parents led by Halle Berry to pass a bill that outlawed paparazzi photos of children taken without permission. She's also been outspoken about her decision to keep her kids off social media, saying she doesn't "see anything positive" for them in it.
Despite Garner and Affleck's best efforts to preserve their children's privacy, the family has had to weather several public ups and downs over the years. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in March 2021, Garner told the outlet how she navigated negative press attention surrounding her family by being upfront and communicative with her kids.
"When they were smaller and there were things out there that were shocking, my request to them was always, 'Let Dad and I talk you through whatever it is,' " she explained. "I'd tell them, 'If you see an image on the front of a magazine, I'll look at it with you and we'll process all the scary feelings that come up together.' "
For his part, Affleck told the Los Angeles Times in January 2022 that he worried about how his kids would handle his public perception, explaining that he paid little mind to the media attention surrounding him until his children began to see it.
"I got to a place where [the public perception] was so different from who I am that I just stopped reading and stopped caring," he said. "But then, as my kids got older and started seeing the Internet themselves, that's the difficult part."
"Even the 'Sad Affleck' meme - that was funny to me," he said. "I mean, there's nobody who hasn't felt that way at a junket. But then my kids see it and I think, 'Oh, are they going to think their dad is fundamentally sad or they have to worry about me?' That's really tough," Affleck explained.
Speaking to Good Morning America in December 2021, the two-time Academy Award winner added that the only opinion of him that matters is that of his children.
"I will be long dead and someone will ask my kids, 'What was your dad like?' and that is when I will know what my life was worth," he said.
Affleck has also said that he considers his kids when making career moves. In fact, getting more time with his kids was one reason he began his production company, Artists Equity, which allows him to be in Los Angeles more.
"One of the reasons I did it was, I'm divorced. I share custody. I don't want to go to Austin and New Orleans and Georgia anymore and not see my kids," he told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published March 16, 2023.
"It just doesn't work. These years are too important. If I miss them, I'll regret it for the rest of my life," he added.
In April 2023, Garner explained to Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager on Today why her kids don't have social media.
"I just said to my kids, 'Show me the articles that prove that social media is good for teenagers, and then we'll have the conversation,' " she said. "My eldest is grateful. We'll see. I mean, it's a long haul. I have a couple more to go, so just knock on wood. We'll see if I really hang in there."
A month later, Garner appeared on the cover of Allure. She told the outlet that she has "a lot of faith" that her kids will grow up to be "lovely" people.
"I don't love every behavior all the time, always. It's gnarly growing up. We didn't have the eyes on us that our kids have," the Alias alum said.
Garner and Affleck have offered a handful of glimpses into their family life over the years, from ways their kids poke fun at them to how they co-parent. Each of the actors have since moved on after their divorce: Garner has been dating CEO John Miller on and off since 2018, while Affleck reconnected with ex-fiancée Jennifer Lopez in 2021, whom he'd been engaged to before his relationship with Garner; he and the singer wed in July 2022.
From their early reflections on raising children to how they're navigating life with teenagers, here's everything Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have said about parenting.
Garner and Affleck welcomed their first child, Violet, on Dec. 1, 2005. "Mother, father and baby are doing great," a rep for the couple told PEOPLE at the time. The pair's oldest child shares a middle name, Anne, with her mom.
Two years after welcoming Violet, Garner gushed about Affleck's parenting skills during a 2007 interview with InStyle.
