Ben Affleck flees Pacific Palisades, seeks refuge with ex
Last summer, Ben Affleck acquired an exceedingly expensive mansion located in Pacific Palisades. The fire spreading there forced the star to make an immediate escape. His ex-wife reportedly offered a helping hand.
The whole world watches in horror as California territories are engulfed by fires. Thousands of Los Angeles residents have lost their life possessions in just a few hours. The main victims are the wealthiest Americans residing in the prestigious Pacific Palisades neighbourhood.
In July this year, Ben Affleck joined the ranks of its exceedingly rich residents. The two-time Oscar winner purchased a villa for a "modest" £16.7 million, enjoying features such as 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and his own movie theatre. Temporarily, however, he has to do without these luxuries. He was forced to leave the area exposed to the highest concentration of fire and dense smoke polluting the air.
Did Ben Affleck temporarily move in with Jennifer Garner?
The 52-year-old actor was photographed on Tuesday evening, quickly leaving the property area. The star took the most necessary items and drove his black SUV towards his ex-wife's house. According to foreign media reports, Jennifer Garner was waiting there for him with their three children: 19-year-old Violet, 16-year-old child identifying as Fin, and Samuel, born in 2012.
Ben Affleck could always count on his ex-wife's support in difficult times. They are the model of ideal parents who did not wade into media wars, consciously avoiding the mentally exhausting battles over asset division and custody of the children. Six years after their divorce, they still maintain a friendly relationship.
Thus, Ben Affleck joined the group of nearly 30,000 other Los Angeles residents who were evacuated in the first hours after the fires broke out.
