Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's united front in battling his recent relapse into alcohol addiction has been a challenge for the former couple ever since Garner was spotted driving her former husband to a rehabilitation center in Malibu. But now, it seems that things are slowing down for the co-parenting former couple.

While Ben Affleck is still undergoing his rehabilitation program, the actor's 30th day seems to have been celebrated with Jennifer Garner and their children in church. People recently reported that the couple was spotted during their outing last Sunday with smiles on their faces.

The “Batman” actor's increased freedom to move around while undergoing treatment may point towards an effective treatment for Ben Affleck's alcohol addiction. According to the news, Ben Affleck is no longer confined to the rehabilitation center's grounds and continues to undergo rehabilitation both from the center and at home.

Affleck's history with alcohol addiction precedes his marriage with Jennifer Garner, with Affleck's first episode happening sometime in 2001. Affleck also admitted to finishing a rehabilitation program sometime in 2017. Ben Affleck's alcohol addiction may have also played a significant role in his recent breakup with ex, Lindsay Shookus.

While fans may wonder if this newfound togetherness between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner could be the start for the couple getting back together, fans should remember that Jennifer Garner's concern for Affleck's health is rooted in their promise to provide a wonderful co-parenting environment for their children despite their divorce. Jennifer Garner has also been observed to be quite happy despite the separation from Ben Affleck.

Fans who have been following Ben Affleck's recovery and Jennifer Garner's commitment to ensuring his successful rehabilitation also know that the former couple is planning to finalize their divorce after Affleck successfully leaves the rehabilitation center.
