Jennifer Garner reunites with ex Ben Affleck in LA after she revealed tough reality of co-parenting their three kids

Ben Affleck reunited with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner just days after she shed rare insight on their co-parenting dynamic.

On Saturday morning, the amicable exes were spotted on an outing together as they exited a Brentwood residence in sunny Los Angeles.

Both Affleck, 53, and Garner, also 53, wore sunglasses and casual attire for their get-together.

Garner walked closely beside her ex-husband as they each carried a bag to a nearby vehicle. 

The former Hollywood couple were previously married for 10 years before divorcing in 2015. They share three kids: Violet, 20, Fin, 17, Samuel, 14. 

Garner recently opened up about their shift from romantic couple to friendly co-parents and what it's been like playing the role of both 'mom and dad' when the kids are under her roof.

She spoke on the topic during an appearance on Tuesday's episode of Bustle's One Nightstand YouTube series.

Garner spoke about the 'loss' that comes with co-parenting when her and Affleck's three kids live with her.

She explained that because they raise their three children in separate households, she often has to take on the both parental roles.

While reflecting on raising their kids, she said she finds the balance with a 'conscientious upbringing' and 'appreciation.' 

She told host Charlotte Owen that she feels like she provides 'a bit of both' with their co-parenting situation. 

'I think my kids' dad does too,' she said about Affleck. 

'Especially when your kids grow up in two separate households, I become mom and dad,' she continued before adding that her ex also does the same when the children stay with him. 

'You kind of can't help it, right? Because you don't have the benefit of both sides of the yin and yang being in the same house,' she continued. 

'There's a little bit of loss in that, but there's also something gained in that,' she noted. 

'You also just learn,' she shared. 'It's made me let go and not focus so much on bringing up.' 

Garner also reflected on the end of their marriage in 2018 last month in an interview with Marie Claire UK and admitted their split was 'hard.' 

'You have to be smart about what you can and can't handle, and I could not handle what was out there,' she explained. 

'The fact of it is what was hard,' she continued. 'The actual breaking up of a family is what was hard. Losing a true partnership and friendship is what was hard.' 

Garner also emphasized she consistently prioritizes her children while jugging her busy career in Hollywood as a major A-list movie star. 

'It never felt like a sacrifice. It was really hard to go to work and it definitely shaped the jobs I chose in a big way,' she said.
