Ben Affleck keeps it casual cool in a t-shirt and jeans as he picks up daughter Seraphina, 13, and son Samuel, 11, from skateboarding in LA

Ben Affleck was ever the doting dad on Tuesday, as he picked up two of his kids from skateboarding in Los Angeles. 

The Gone Girl actor, 51, rocked a casual grey t-shirt, dark jeans and black and white sneakers for the outing.

The Academy Award winner was pictured walking to his car with daughter Seraphina, 13, and son Samuel, 11.

Affleck enjoyed a chat with his youngest daughter — whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 51, along with their eldest daughter Violet, 17 — as she sat on the trunk of his car and changed her shoes. 

Seraphina was still rocking skateboarding knee pads over khaki shorts.  Meanwhile Samuel sported a green shirt and khaki pants.

Doting dad: Ben Affleck, 51, was ever the doting dad on Tuesday, as he picked up daughter Seraphina, 13, and son Samuel, 11, from skateboarding in Los Angeles 

The actor spent some quality time with his kids following his date night with wife Jennifer Lopez at The Ivy in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

The duo also enjoyed an outing at the 2023 Eastern Congo Initiative Poker and Blackjack Tournament at The Palazzo in Las Vegas last Friday.

The On The Floor hitmaker, 54, cozied up next to the Oscar winner as they joined other celebrities on the red carpet, such as Mad Men alum John Hamm.

Affleck co-founded the Eastern Congo Initiative with Whitney Williams in 2010, which is, ‘an advocacy and funding organization focused on working with and for the people of eastern Congo,’ per the official website.

Lopez turned heads wearing a figure-hugging, black David Koma dress that contained a sheer cutout on the front for a sultry flair.

Silver, rhinestone details were placed on the upper portion of the ensemble, as well as on the shorter hem for a dazzling flare.

The Good Will Hunting actor was dapper in a three-piece blue suit which he paired with a white dress shirt that was partially unbuttoned towards the collar.

The lovebirds paused for a quick photo session together, and at one point, sent loving glances towards each other.

Bonding: Affleck enjoyed a chat with his youngest daughter as she sat on the trunk of his car and changed her shoes

Lopez and her husband initially met during the early 2000s, and they were briefly engaged before they ended their relationship in 2004.

The singer moved with Marc Anthony, whom she married in 2004, and they welcomed twins Emme and Maximilian, 15, in 2008.

Meanwhile Affleck married Garner in 2005. 

Lopez divorced Anthony in 2014, and the actor formally dissolved his marriage in 2018.

The hitmaker and the director eventually reconnected, and they resumed their relationship in April of 2021.

The happy couple remained together for over a year before they tied the knot during a wedding ceremony in Las Vegas in July of last year.

Earlier this month Lopez said she has learned to ‘love herself unapologetically’ since marrying Affleck. 

She told Vogue: ‘I’m finally at the point in my life where I love every part of myself unapologetically. Every part of me, my body, my voice, my choices, even like my mistakes.

‘All of it made me who I am and got me to where I am today. Ben wants me to understand my worth and know my value.’ JLo added that Ben makes her feel more ‘beautiful’ than anyone else ever has done.

The ex: The actor shares a total of three kids with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 51. Aside from Seraphina and Samuel they are also parents to daughter Violet, 17; the former pair seen in 2012

She said: ‘I feel even more relaxed and comfortable, which makes me feel even more beautiful than I have ever felt with someone else.’ 

Lopez previously spoke about her blended family during an interview with Vogue, where she stated that, although she was happy to be able to start a new life with Affleck, her priority was the well-being of their children.

‘The transition is a process that needs to be handled with so much care. They have so many feelings. They’re teens. But it’s going really well so far,’ she stated.

The performer also spoke about how she wanted her children to connect with their stepfather and vice versa.

‘What I hope to cultivate with our family is that his kids have a new ally in me and my kids have a new ally in him, someone who really loves and cares about them but can have a different perspective,’ she said.
