The former couple split in 2018 but have remained famously close while raising their three children, Violet, Fin, 17, and Samuel, 14
The trio appeared to be in high spirits despite the health scare
‘And I think my kids' dad does too. Especially when your kids grow up in two separate households, I become mom and dad and he becomes dad and mom,’ she said.
‘You kind of can't help it, right? Because you don't have the benefit of both sides of the yin and yang being in the same house.

Violet and Jen share a close, low-key bond
Garner has often spoken about trying to give her children as normal a upbringing as possible, despite their Hollywood background
Affleck has previously reflected on the difficulty of divorce and co-parenting, saying in a 2020 appearance on Good Morning America: ‘I didn't want to get divorced, I didn't want to be a divorced person, I really didn't want to be a split family with my children.
'It upset me because it meant I wasn't who I thought I was and that was so painful and so disappointing. In myself.
‘When you have children with somebody, you're connected to them forever. And I'm very lucky she [Garner] is the mother of my children.
‘I'm very grateful and respectful of her. Our marriage didn't work, and that's difficult. Both of us really believe that it's important for kids to see their parents respect one another and get along, whether they're together or not.’
