Jennifer Garner Takes Teen Daughter Seraphina And Teen Step Daughter Emme To Disneyland
Becoming a blended family has become a solution for many, and it also seems to be working for Jennifer Garner.
The doting mother was out and about last Sunday, chaperoning her 14-year-old daughter Seraphina and Jennifer Lopez’s 15-year-old Emme, as they explored the Happiest Place on Earth.
The two teens were seen riding the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad along with their other teenage friends. 51-year-old Jennifer was busy documenting the day’s adventure and taking photos.
It was reported that Seraphina and Emme had formed a strong bond as stepsisters and friends following their parents’ reconciliation in May 2021 after over a decade of falling apart.
For the Disney trip, the Alias star wore casual and comfortable jeans, which she paired with a blue long-sleeve with yellow smileys printed.
Previously, Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Garner’s ex-husband, Ben Affleck’s current wife, gushed about how the Golden Globes winner was a fantastic co-parent and that she works well with Ben, especially regarding their children’s welfare.
During Jennifer Lopez’s interview with Vogue, she was asked about their blended family, and she admitted that all of them worked really hard to make the transition, and they handled everything with much care.
The mom-of-two, referring to the teen children, explained, “They have so many feelings. They’re teens. But it’s going well so far. What I hope to cultivate with our family is that his kids have a new ally in me, and my kids have a new ally in him, someone who really loves and cares about them but can have a different perspective and help me see things that I can’t see with my kids because I’m so emotionally tied up.”
Earlier in May, Jennifer Lopez also spoke about how touched she was watching her 50-year-old husband raise their children under one roof, and it made her emotional. She realized how amazing Ben is as a father and was impressed and thankful for how Ben is involved with the children. At the same time, Ben, by example, was also teaching her how to interact with the children and form a relationship with them.
Jennifer Lopez described her husband as the kind of father anybody would wish they had. He is a present and loving dad who genuinely cares.
Furthermore, Jennifer revealed how Ben is “so in tune, he’s such a brilliant guy anyway like he’s so learned in so many things, and you can just tell when he’s had his kids, he read every book and everything you could possibly learn about children, and he applies it and is present, and that’s all you can ask for.”
Jennifer Lopez and Ben combined their families last year after their marriage, so in their household, they have the Waiting For Tonight hitmaker’s 15-year-old twins Emme and Max from ex-husband Marc Anthony. Ben shares three children with Jennifer Garner, 17-year-old Violet, Seraphina, and 11-year-old Samuel.
Being the matriarch of a household filled with teenagers, Jennifer Lopez admitted that it is challenging to watch and experience the children starting to “individuate” themselves from her. She revealed that she’s already experiencing moments when her kids don’t want to talk to her and honestly mentioned that sometimes her poor mommy heart can’t cope with the children growing up.
