"They met up and went shopping together. Jen and Ben seemed fine," the insider tells PEOPLE. "The focus was mostly on Sam."

In August 2024, the "Get on the Floor" singer filed for divorce from The Accountant 2 star, more than two years after the couple married in July 2022, multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE at the time.
Affleck and Lopez maintain a good relationship, despite their split. Their blended family still has a tight-knit relationship. Affleck is dad to Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 53, while Lopez and ex Marc Anthony, 56, share 17-year-old twins Max and Emme.
"The kids are still really close," an Affleck source told PEOPLE back in September. "They have the same groups of friends, they see each other and they talk all the time. They make sure the kids know they get along. The most important thing to both of them is raising their kids in a supportive environment, so they plan to stay in each other’s lives.”
