It has been a truly trying past year for Ben Affleck. The famous actor and director had a ton on his mind through all of 2024. His marriage with Jennifer Lopez gradually came crumbling down, and it was covered in-depth every single day by the same media that was the initial reason for his split with Lopez during their first relationship.
Hoping to get off to a fresh new start in 2025, Affleck watched the Los Angeles wildfires tear through his city of residence. Thankfully, his newly purchased home was spared, but it was a traumatic experience for Affleck and many other affected residents. While all of this has been happening, Affleck has spent more time than usual with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, mainly due to both looking out for their children together.

With everything going on, Affleck has surely been affected mentallty and emotionally. He was seen taking a smoke break during the appearance, something that has become common.
Tons of people, including those that are homeless, have been displaced since the fires began a few weeks ago. It’s been a chaotic whirlwind for the area, and Affleck wants to do anything he can to help.
Affleck has made charitable work a part of his life, as last November he was seen together with Garner and their kids feeding the homeless at a Thanksgiving charity event.
