KEY POINTS

  • Jennifer Garner steps out with daughter Violet.
  • Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck's relationship after divorce.
  • Jennifer Garner daughter Violet's birthday.

Jennifer Garner stepped out with lookalike daughter Violet weeks after the latter celebrated her birthday with Ben Affleck.

The “Peppermint” star was spotted with Violet weeks after the latter’s birthday celebration with her dad and mom. Based on News.com.au ’s photos, Violet appears to be the spitting image of her mom.

Garner and Violet were also seen shopping together in Brentwood, Los Angeles. They were smiling while walking together with shopping bags in tow.

The mother and daughter’s sighting happened weeks after Violet’s natal day. They spent her special day as a family. Affleck, Garner and Violet were spotted attending a Sunday church service at the Pacific Palisades that day with their son Samuel and Affleck’s mom Christine Boldt. Violet’s sister Seraphina was noticeably missing.

An insider told Us Weekly that Affleck felt he was disappointing his ex-wife because he was not able to stay longer for Violet’s birthday. The “Batman v Superman” star had to leave earlier because he needed to work on a film.

“Ben has been filming in New Orleans and hadn’t seen the kids in a few weeks. They had a big week with Thanksgiving and Violet’s birthday. There was a lot of family time and things do come up,” a source said.

Garner reportedly wanted to do things in a certain way and sometimes Affleck couldn’t do it her way. For instance, he was not able to participate in Violet’s birthday they way they wanted because he had to fly to New Orleans.

Garner and Violet love to hang out together. The mother and daughter duo have been spotted out and about together. For instance, in August, they were seen enjoying brunch in Los angeles.

They were photographed smiling, with Garner carrying several books and a cup of coffee in her hand. She giggled as she chatted with her eldest child. The celebrity mom of three looked chic in her lilac striped shirt tucked into her navy chinos.

Violet was as gorgeous as her mom on the said sighting. She was stunning in her white shirt, denim skirt and flip-flops while holding a box of salad in one hand.
