By Rae MitchellPublished Updated 2 min read

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner remain one of Hollywood’s most talked-about former couples, and their shared history centres on their three children. The pair were married for 13 years before officially going their separate ways, but they have continuously maintained a focus on raising their family together. Through all the media spotlight and high-profile career moments, their kids have remained the top priority for both movie stars. The Hollywood duo first tied the knot during the peak of their 2000s stardom, beginning a chapter that spanned more than a decade. Throughout their 13-year marriage, they welcomed three children into the world: daughters Violet and Seraphina, followed by their youngest son, Samuel. Even after finalizing their divorce, reports consistently highlight how the two actors work in tandem to balance co-parenting responsibilities.

The eldest of the trio is Violet, born during the early years of the couple's marriage. Growing up under the flashbulbs of Los Angeles, Violet has occasionally made public appearances alongside her famous parents at high-profile events. As the oldest sibling, she set the stage for the close-knit family bond that the former couple continues to display. Next in line is Seraphina, the former couple's middle child. Seraphina has often been spotted out and about on casual outings with both Affleck and Garner over the years, whether running errands around town or attending family gatherings. Like her siblings, she has grown up navigating the unique realities of having two major entertainment figures as mother and father.

Rounding out the household is Samuel, the youngest child and only son of Affleck and Garner. Born later in their 13-year union, Samuel has frequently been seen sharing bonding moments and outings with his dad, as well as spending quiet downtime with Garner. The youngest sibling completes the dynamic trio that the exes continue to co-parent side by side. Despite moving forward with separate lives and careers, Affleck and Garner remain deeply committed to their family unit. Their 13-year marriage built a lasting foundation where Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel remain central to both of their lives. For fans keeping up with the famous pair, seeing them present a united front for their three kids continues to be a defining part of their story.
