Violet Affleck towers over mom Jennifer Garner while enjoying bonding time on break from Yale
The Alias star, who stands tall at 5ft8in, appeared several inches shorter than her 19-year-old daughter as they ran errands together.
And Violet wasn't wearing any particularly fancy heels - just a pair of chunky trainers.
The pair could have passed as sisters as they picked up a few goods from Whole Foods.
The Yale student opted not to wear her usual facemask as she strode through the parking lot, a single bag from the store in her hand.
Jennifer carried another bag from the grocery store and kept it casual with leopard print leggings, a black sweater, and chunky trainers.
The 13 Going On 30 star, 53, shares Violet with her ex-husband Ben Affleck. The former couple also have two other children - Samuel, 13, and Fin, 16.
The duo have remained on good terms after their 2018 divorce and earlier this year sparked reconciliation rumors after Ben pulled her in for an embrace.
Affleck and Garner were married from 2005 to 2018. She is currently dating businessman John Miller, with whom she first became linked to following her divorce from Ben.
They have been dating on-off since 2018.
Last month Ben praised Jennifer and their co-parenting partnership during an interview with British GQ.
'I'm really lucky that I have a really good co-parent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the kids' mom, who's wonderful and great and we work together well.'
That same month the pair were seen embracing during an outing, sending the internet into a frenzy.
Daily Mail later learned Garner is 'deathly afraid of falling back in love' with the actor, with a source saying she still has 'trust issues' with Affleck following affair rumors with their children's nanny, Christine Ouzounian, now 37, a decade ago.
'She loves Ben but is worried that he will crush her all over again,' the source said.
'She doesn't want to heal another broken heart because it is just too much drama, plus she does not want their kids to see round two of their mom in a bad place with their dad.
'So much could go wrong if they reunite.'
Affleck has not spoken much about his recent divorce from second wife Jennifer Lopez, 55, but was photographed spending more time with first wife Garner in the months that followed.
He wed Lopez in 2022 and she filed for divorce last year following months of speculation. The marriage officially ended earlier this year.
The 13 Going On 30 star was said to have played a key role in helping her ex-husband through his split from Lopez, adopting the role of 'marriage counsellor' to the struggling couple, with some friends feared she had been forced to 'play mediator.'
It was not immediately clear what Violet was studying at the Ivy League institution.
Garner, appearing on Live with Kelly and Mark in late 2023, called Violet 'a self-starter' who had been 'totally in charge' of mapping out her collegiate curriculum.
Garner added, 'I'm proud of her no matter what.'

TikTok star John E Crawley dead at 47 from cardiac arrest days after Pimpmunkx influencer was rushed into ICU
BELOVED TikTok star John Crawley has died at age 47 after being hospitalized following a cardiac arrest. Crawley, who went by KingBeardX and previously Pimpmunkx on social media, died on Monday evening, according to a family member. 3 3 Tonya Palmer, Crawley's cousin, said the social media influencer died surrounded by family. "Roughly 40 minutes ago with family by his side John E Crawley #kingbreadx passed away," Palmer wrote on Facebook. She added in all caps, "On behalf of the family we want to say thank you to everyone that kept him in their thoughts and prayers. "And to all hos [sic] fans and supporters to hom [sic] each and everyone of you was like his family and he cared deeply about you all." Crawley, who had over 2 million followers on TikTok, had been hospitalized for at least two weeks after suffering a cardiac arrest, according to TMZ. Anthony Caruso, a friend of Crawley who started a GoFundMe to help pay for his medical expenses, said Crawley was struggling to breathe before he was admitted into the intensive care unit. "John is the main breadwinner of the family, and unfortunately, he doesn't have medical insurance," Caruso wrote. "His condition is quite unstable, and we're all worried about him." The post revealed that doctors put Crawley on a ventilator after his blood oxygen level (O2 levels) dropped to 66% and he stopped breathing. "They (put him into the ICU and) brought it back up to 100% (O2 levels)," Caruso added. "He just had a tube placed in his chest.. his breathing condition is still very bad." 'A GOOD GUY' Caruso updated the GoFundMe on Tuesday, where he announced Crawley's death. "I'm really sorry to tell everyone the bad news but Pimpmunkx (KingBeardx) passed away yesterday," Caruso added, before stating the fundraiser would now support funeral expenses and Crawley's mother. James Steele, the funeral director at Glenfield Funeral Home in New Albany, Mississippi, told TMZ that Crawley died on Monday. "Knowing him personally, John was a good guy," Steele told the outlet. "He lit up a lot of people's worlds. I just left his house and was with his mother, we prayed together. "She's torn up right now but she's going to make it." Crawley was renowned on social media for his comical reaction videos to the way people ate their food. In another she wrote, "I still can't believe your [sic] gone."

Australian star shocks as she wears bizarre G-string skirt while walking the red carpet for a movie launch in the US
An Australian actress shocked onlookers in California on Wednesday when she stepped out in a strange G-string skirt during a special screening of Eenie Meanie. Samara Weaving modelled the bizarre sparkling silver frock as she walked the 'black' carpet at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica. The 'lingerie mini skirt', which retails for $2,352 at Wiederhoeft, features a black underwear detailing with a garter-belt design to match. Two black bows fixed to the hem complete the odd look. The former Home and Away star, 33, paired the piece with a busty black corset top by the same designer, which goes for $6,297. Samara, who highlighted her genetically blessed features with a minimal makeup look, paired the outfit with black stockings and matching pumps. She added several designer rings to her look, including a Cartier diamond and onyx band which can be sold for up to $40,000 at luxury second-hand stores. Samara plays the starring role in Eenie Meanie, portraying a skilled getaway driver who just can't seem to get away from her reckless ex-boyfriend. Eenie Meanie is a high-speed thriller written and directed by Shawn Simmons in his feature directorial debut. Samara will be joined by Karl Glusman, Jermaine Fowler, Marshawn Lynch, Randall Park, Steve Zahn, and Andy Garcia. The Adelaide-born star has made a name for herself as a 'scream queen' after starring in films such as Ready or Not, Scream VI, The Babysitter, and Azrael. Earlier this year, she was busy promoting her recent film Borderline in a number of interviews and social media posts. The dark comedy thriller tells the story of a popstar whose home is broken into by an obsessive fan who believes they are betrothed. One of the producers of the film is none other than Hollywood heavyweight Margot Robbie, who also starred with Samara in the Damien Chazelle-directed Babylon. The 'lingerie mini skirt', which retails for $2,352 at Wiederhoeft, features a black underwear detailing with a garter-belt design to match Frequently mistaken for fellow Aussie Margot, 35, Samara revealed last year the two women are actually great friends and like to catch up in Los Angeles. Margot's husband Tom Ackerley and Samara's husband Jimmy Warden are great mates too. 'We met five or six years ago. She's great; our husbands are like best friends,' the actress told Stellar Magazine. 'I have a really good group of girlfriends in LA—a lot of Aussies—and we really try to make time for each other and hang out, go for dinners, and leave the husbands at home. 'It's so important to have that in LA because it can get really overwhelming.'

Lana Del Rey reveals wedding memento ahead of first anniversary with alligator tour guide husband
Lana Del Rey revealed a rare wedding memento ahead of her first anniversary with alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene on September 26. The 40-year-old Abyss singer shared a snap of an ornate rose pin as well as a white lace doily that was red-stitched with their first initials 'L & J' for their big day. Lana (born Elizabeth Grant) posted a glimpse at her wedding ring as well as her substantial thigh gap, which many believe came courtesy of a trendy GLP-1 weight-loss drug. Del Rey - who boasts 65.9M social media followers - also shared a blurry snap of the 50-year-old father-of-three's airboat that he regularly captains in Louisiana. The 11-time Grammy nominee and Jeremy reportedly obtained their marriage license on September 23, but it's unclear if they ever signed a prenuptial agreement to protect her reported $60M fortune. 'I'm grateful for him for [my producer Jack Antonoff's] example that he gave me in his marriage to Margaret [Qualley]. I saw the way he looked at her when he met her, and he's a big reason why I waited so long to get married and why I met my amazing husband,' Lana gushed at a Variety event on December 7. 'I really feel like there's kind of a singer's curse around meeting an honest partner who has no skin in the game, no dog in the race. And it's super nerve-racking to have to hold onto an innocent perception of how things could go when you're in an industry where maybe your values or your morals don't quite match up with what's going on. Especially when people think that you probably don't have any morals or values.' Del Rey has known Dufrene as far back as 2019 when he let her 'captain' his airboat during a cruise with Arthur's Airboat Tours, which hosted the couple's nuptials on the bayou of Des Allemandes. Speaking of Jack, the Manhattan-born belter has teased three tracks - 57.5, Bluebird, and Henry, Come On - off her upcoming 10th studio album and first country record, which is rumored to be called Lasso. Last Thursday, Lana shared a snippet of 'Track 13' which her fans are already nicknaming 'All About Ethel' as it appears to be a diss track aimed at Ethel Cain. 'Ethel Cain hated my Instagram post / Thinks it's cute reenactin' my Chicago pose / Hard to roll in slow motion / Hard to say no to cau-caution / Hard to stop when it's like an ocean / Not afraid to say I'm goin' down in flames,' Del Rey sang. 'The most famous girl at the Waffle House / I don't regret it / The most famous girl at the Waffle House.' That same day, the self-described 'anti-feminist' accused the 27-year-old trans woman of fat-shaming her by posting 'graphic side-by-side images' and 'making constant comments about my weight.' 'I didn't know who Ethel was until a few years ago,' Lana explained in a since-deleted comment on Pop Base's Instagram. 'I was confused at what she was getting at. Then when I heard what she was saying behind closed doors from mutual friends and started inserting herself into my personal life I was definitely disturbed.' Last Thursday, Lana shared a snippet of 'Track 13' which her fans are already nicknaming 'All About Ethel' as it appears to be a diss track aimed at Ethel Cain That same day, the self-described 'anti-feminist' accused the 27-year-old trans woman of fat-shaming her by posting 'graphic side-by-side images' and 'making constant comments about my weight' On Thursday, Ethel Instastoried an update: 'Lana Del Rey has blocked Ethel Cain on Instagram.' Del Rey's lyric referencing her 'Chicago pose' was aimed at Cain (born Hayden Silas Anhedönia) for copying her while posing next to her ex-boyfriend, Salem member Jack Donoghue, at a dam in 2021. The Golden Globe-nominated songwriter's lyric about Waffle House was referring to a 2022 New York Times profile on the autistic, homeschooled Zoomer which they headlined 'The Most Famous Girl at the Waffle House.' Ethel isn't having the best summer considering she just penned a 2K-word apology for resurfaced tweets where she wrote the N-word and referred to 'building the wall' and 'legalizing incest' and drawing child pornography. 'To try and sum everything up, no I am not a violent misogynist fetishizing the "female experience,"' Cain wrote via Google doc on July 9. 'No I am not the creator of child pornography, nor am I a pedophile, a zoophile, or a porn-addicted incest fetishist. I urge you to recognize the patterns of a transphobic/otherwise targeted smear campaign, especially in this political day and age.' The 5ft8in IMG Model will next bring her 63-date Willoughby Tucker Forever Tour to the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in LA this Wednesday and Thursday.
