Ben Affleck swaps trademark cigarettes for something healthier

Ben Affleck was spotted enjoying a healthy snack while out in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The 53-year-old actor was dressed in a business casual look as he took big bites of a red apple amid his apparent attempt to curb his cigarette habit.

Affleck wore a light blue shirt with navy corduroy pants and a beige sport coat.

The Boston-bred filmmaker added brown boots, which coordinated with his brown belt.

His greying hair was cut short and his grizzled beard was closely trimmed. 

It comes after the star attended the Bring Change to Mind Revels And Revelations Celebration at Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco on Monday night.

They were married from 2005 until their separation in 2015, and their divorce was finalized in 2018.

During an appearance on Bustle’s One Nightstand podcast in February, Garner explained: ‘When your kids grow up in two separate households, I become mom and dad, and he becomes dad and mom.

‘You kind of can’t help it, right? Because you don’t have the benefit of both sides, the yin and yang being in the same house, so you have to have a bit of both in the way you parent.’

She added, ‘There’s a little bit of loss in that, but there’s also something gained in that…you also just learn. It’s made me let go and not focus so much on the bringing up.’

And the actor told E! News in January, ‘You put something on your children when you have a public life and that’s complicated.’

‘We really want to give them room to figure out what they want to do,’ he said about not pressuring their children into any particular career.

Affleck was married to Jennifer Lopez from 2022 to 2024, and recently surrendered his share of their marital mansion. 

The exes, who purchased the sprawling estate in May 2023 for $60,850,000, have been attempting to sell it since July 2024, shortly before Lopez filed for divorce.

According to legal documents obtained by the Daily Mail, the former couple quietly amended their property settlement, which was filed in January 2025.

On April 9 they added a ‘stipulation and order’ to modify specific terms of their estate.

Although many of the terms remain the same, the updated terms state that Lopez ‘shall be solely responsible for all expenses [associated] with any future sale of her interest in the Wallingford Residence, including but not limited to broker’s commissions, applicable taxes, closing costs, etc.’

In addition, they note that there will be a ‘transfer of property’ at some point.

Their August 2022 wedding came almost 20 years after they called off their first engagement.

Following their first split in 2004, Lopez went on to marry and welcome fraternal twins with her now-ex-husband Marc Anthony.
