Garner, who was married to the Gone Girl actor for a decade before they announced their separation in 2015, recalled tagging along with her then-husband when he was on location for a movie.
“When my kids were really little, I went to Paris,” Garner recounted during the November 4 interview. “Ben was shooting some Batman-ish movie in London and we went for six weeks. I took them out of school. It was the last time I really took kids out of school, but it was wonderful. It was incredible. It was so fun.”

The Five Star Weekend actress shared her fond memories of the trip, explaining, “Part of that is that we bopped around. We went to Venice, we went to Paris.”
Garner recalled Garten recommending that she take a boat tour down the Seine, sharing, “I’ve done it now, every time I go. Every picture from that night, from that trip, the smile on my kids’ faces—it was such an adventure that you gave us.”

Both Garner and Affleck have shared glowing reviews about their amicable co-parenting relationship since their divorce. In an interview with Variety published on October 7, Affleck emphasized that his first priority is being there for his kids while they’re growing up. He shared, “I work hard, and then I go home and pick up the kids from school. We have dinner if they agree to hang out with me. They’re with me for a week, then with their mom for a week.”
Affleck said that he’s “grateful” for the friendly relationship he’s kept with Garner since their split. “They have a great thing with their mom, for whom I’m also really, really grateful,” he added. “I know things will come up that are hard, and I don’t want to jinx that, but this time in my life as a human being is really wonderful.”
