Jennifer Garner recently expresseed her love for her ex-husband, Ben Affleck in honor of Father’s Day.
On Sunday, the star, 51, posted on Instagram in celebration of all the dads in her life. Sharing a photo of herself and her parents, Garner penned a sweet tribute that included a shoutout to ex-husband Ben Affleck.
“Happy Father’s Day to the best to ever do the job,” she began. “(Jeans in church 😬 — I made my connecting flight, but my luggage didn’t 🙏). We love you, Dad. X”
“PS Shout out to BGA — no one loves their kids like you love ours, happy Father’s Day, Ben! X.”
Garner and Affleck were married from 2005 to 2018 and share three kids: Samuel, 10, Seraphina, 13, and Violet, 17.
The couple are famously private parents and have worked hard to keep their kids out of the spotlight. Garner has also been outspoken about her decision to keep her kids off social media, saying she doesn’t “see anything positive” for them in it.
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.’ “
