Ben Affleck and Son Samuel Share a Rare Night Out
Ben Affleck shines as a devoted father in the public eye.
The renowned actor from Gone Girl recently enjoyed a memorable evening with his son Samuel, who is now 12 years old. They attended a thrilling Los Angeles Lakers home game against the Toronto Raptors on November 10. The father-son duo radiated joy as they sat courtside, witnessing the Lakers’ impressive 123-103 victory. This outing not only showcased their close bond but also highlighted Ben’s commitment to spending quality time with his children, even amidst his busy schedule.
Ben, who is a proud father to Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, opted for a relaxed yet stylish look. He donned a chic gray coat over a khaki button-down shirt paired with gray jeans, while Samuel sported an all-black ensemble. The pair even showcased their synchronized style by wearing matching Nike sneakers, adding a playful touch to their father-son outing.
This delightful father-son basketball adventure isn’t a rare occurrence for Ben and Samuel. The pair has been spotted together at various NBA games in the past. Most recently, Samuel was seen courtside with his father and then-wife Jennifer Lopez back in March, reinforcing the idea that sports outings are a cherished family tradition.
Their latest outing comes during a transitional period for Ben, as he navigates his ongoing divorce from the 55-year-old “Love Don’t Cost A Thing” singer, who initiated the divorce proceedings in August. Despite these personal challenges, Ben continues to prioritize his relationship with his children, ensuring they have memorable experiences together.
