Jennifer Garner proved she’s more than happy to spend time with ex-husband Ben Affleck and his girlfriend Jennifer Lopez after the trio were spotted trick-or-treating together.
The actress shares daughters Violet, 15, and Seraphina, 12, and son Samuel, nine, with the Argo star, and the family came together at one point while celebrating the holiday in a private, gated Malibu colony on Sunday evening.
Ben and J-Lo, 52, were pictured with his son Samuel and her 13-year-old son Maximilian as they enjoyed a Halloween event in the celeb-favorite community.
A source told People magazine: ‘Everyone gets along and the focus is always on the kids. Jennifer, Ben and Jen Garner all wanted the kids to have an amazing Halloween.
‘The kids are friends and wanted to go trick-or-treating together. It made sense that they all went together.’
The insider added: ‘Ben is working today again, so they wanted to enjoy a family weekend.’

Earlier that day, Ben and his ex had also been seen spending time with their kids at Huckleberry.
The two were later seen exiting the gated community in a black Mercedes before boarding a private plane in Van Nuys.
It remains unclear where the two were headed but there was a flight out of that airport at 7:22pm on Sunday night which arrived in Austin, Texas hours later.

The Love Don’t Cost A Thing singer and Good Will Hunting actor, 49, reunited earlier this year, after weeks of speculation and some not-so subtle dates.
They first began dating in 2001 and announced their engagement the following year.

However, they dramatically called off their wedding just days before it was due to take place, in 2003, before confirming their split months later.
Since reuniting, they have become inseparable, making their red carpet debut at Venice Film Festival.
