Ben Affleck took his and ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s eldest two kids to dinner at a Los Angeles hot spot over the weekend.

The actor dined with Violet, 20, and Seraphina, 17, at Fia in Santa Monica, California, on Saturday.

The former couple’s 14-year-old son, Samuel, was not present for the family outing.

Affleck, 54, wore a button-up shirt and jeans to the restaurant, while Seraphina paired a striped long-sleeve with overalls.

Violet, for her part, paired a purple sweater and floral tank top with a red skirt and sneakers.

The Yale University student wore a face mask, as she often makes headlines for while out and about with her parents.

Violet, who called for a mask mandate in 2024, previously explained that she “contracted a post-viral condition in 2019.”

Affleck and Garner welcomed their daughter in December 2005, six months into their marriage.

Seraphina and Samuel were born in January 2009 and February 2012, respectively.

The duo called it quits on their romance in 2015, finalizing their divorce three years later.

Garner, 54, made a rare comment on their co-parenting dynamic last month while chatting with Entertainment Weekly.

“He takes care of them,” she told the outlet in July. “He’s a great partner in that way. And so that’s very freeing [in my career].”

The “Alias” alum also shouted out her ex on Father’s Day in June, sharing never-before-seen photos via Instagram.

“I see the way my kids dote on their dad, and I’m happy for them,” she wrote. “To love and be loved by a great dad is a gift.”

Garner, notably, has been in an on-again, off-again relationship with John Miller since her and Affleck’s breakup.

Affleck, for his part, married Jennifer Lopez in 2022 — but has since split from the “Let’s Get Loud” singer as well.

The “Accountant” star has yet to debut a new romance.
