Ben Affleck was smiling again as he reunited with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner to send their daughter Violet off to college over the weekend – but his current wife Jennifer Lopez was notably absent for the significant family moment amid their marriage turmoil.
In photos exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com, the actor, 52, was happy and relaxed as he enjoyed dinner with Garner, 52, Violet, 18, and their child Fin, 15, in the town of New Haven, Connecticut on Saturday.
Despite her close bond with Violet, Lopez , 52, was also absent from the milestone occasion.
The four enjoyed dinner al fresco at the restaurant South Bay before going for a relaxing walk in the area. At one point during the outing, a beaming Ben embraced Fin.
Ben notably purchased a $20.5 million home in the Pacific Palisades last month in July – after residing in a $100k-a-month rental in Brentwood.
The Atlas actress has been staying at their lavish mansion in Beverly Hills – which has been listed on the market for $68 million.
Lopez also appeared to snub the Good Will Hunting actor as she jumped to social media – but did not wish him a happy birthday.
She was radiant in a series of Instagram snaps while posing in a sheer, Dior dress that contained shimmering .
Earlier last week, a source told People that Jennifer ‘is trying to find a new home to start fresh’ and added the pair are ‘moving on separately.’
