On Thursday, the former couple, who share children Violet, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, reunited to volunteer with Midnight Mission.

Along with their kids, the stars teamed up to help feed 2,000 homeless and near-homeless people in downtown Los Angeles during the non-profit organization’s annual Thanksgiving brunch.

As they lent a helping hand, the two-time Oscar winner and actress could be seen whispering to one another and wearing matching aprons.

They both appeared in high spirits as they served their community with a smile.

An eyewitness told DailyMail.com that they spent three hours there.

Affleck’s sighting comes one day after DailyMail.com reported that he would be spending the holiday with Garner, their three children and her boyfriend John Miller.

‘Ben and Jen are looking forward to today and Ben is anticipating a relaxing day full of food and football before he has to get back to work on the film,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively.

‘Thanksgiving is all about being drama free when it comes to Ben, it is going to be low key, only good vibes and Jen is on board to make today as easy as possible.’

A second insider said he was adamant that nothing would get in the way of the ‘meaningful holiday’ which was celebrated at Garner’s house with Miller, whom she has been dating on-and-off since 2018.

Garner recently  revealed her festive holiday plans with her family.

Garner told People she’ll be taking her kids to see The Nutcracker.

The star called the play a ‘huge’ Christmas tradition for her and the kids.

‘We’ll definitely go see The Nutcracker, because that is a huge part of Christmas for me and for my kids — thank goodness I’ve drilled it into them — and just being together with family,’ she said.

And the children also contribute their own ‘specialty’ dishes for Thanksgiving.

‘I have one kid who specializes in mashed potatoes, that’s their specialty, I have one kid who is all about making an apple pie, that’s their specialty, and then I have one who goodness only knows what she will make,’ she said.
