Ben Affleck found himself at the center of a terrifying fire emergency, with emotions etched across his face as he evacuated his Los Angeles home. In a dramatic turn of events, the Hollywood star was spotted racing to the nearby residence of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
Affleck and Garner, who share three children, live just a short distance apart in the Pacific Palisades area. Reports suggest Jennifer’s home had not been evacuated at the time, though the entire neighborhood remains on high alert due to the spreading wildfires. It’s unclear whether Affleck rushed to Garner’s home to check on their family or sought refuge after leaving his own property.
The ongoing fire has ravaged multiple parts of the westside of Los Angeles, including the affluent Pacific Palisades neighborhood, which is home to numerous celebrities such as Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg, Reese Witherspoon, Mark Hamill, and Eugene Levy.
The situation has left residents scrambling for safety as firefighters battle to control the blaze. For Affleck, it’s clear that family comes first in times of crisis, with his actions reflecting his deep care for Garner and their children.
