Ben Affleck was caught in a disgusting act just a week after his much talked about sexy clinch with Jennifer Garner.

The 52-year-old A-lister – who was recently seen on an outing with children Violet, 19, and Fin, 16 – enjoyed an outing with his youngest child Samuel, 13, in Los Angeles over the weekend.

And though it was a sweet bonding outing, Ben did something a bit gross as he forcefully spit out a mass of saliva and phlegm AKA ‘hawked a loogie’ on the stroll.

The proud father made sure that the spit would not hit his son as he completely turned his head the opposite way as he blew it out of his mouth.

Ben kept his look simple on the outing as he sported a grey full-zip sweater over plain white T-Shirt, indigo-washed jeans, and added a bit of quiet luxury in the form of navy colored Brunello Cucinelli leather alpine hiking boots which retail for $1,695.

His short hair was disheveled as he sported a scruffy beard and clutched onto a small white box.

Affleck has been keeping busy and last weekend the star attended the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas for the screening of his movie The Accountant 2.

The action thriller – which is a sequel to the 2016 film – is slated to hit theaters next month on April 26.

Along with Ben, other stars that have been cast in the project include Jon Bernthal, Danielle Pineda, J.K. Simmons and Cynthia Addai-Robinson.

The premise is: ‘Christian Wolff (Affleck) applies his brilliant mind and illegal methods to reconstruct the unsolved puzzle of a Treasury chief’s murder,’ per IMDB.

Matt Damon – who was one of the producers on the action thriller – also supported his former Good Will Hunting co-star at the premiere.

While on the red carpet, Ben opened up about his friendship with Damon and working with the star during an interview with People.

‘It’s a beautiful thing. You know, I don’t have very many – none of us really have many friends. You don’t need a million friends,’ he expressed to the outlet.

‘You need a few good ones. And I’m really lucky to have had a friend in Matt. I’m lucky to have friends like that in my life.’

His appearance at the star-studded event also came shortly after he was seen hugging his ex-wife Jennifer Garner during a paintball session as they celebrated their son Samuel’s 13th birthday.

The former couple tied the knot in 2005 but their divorce was finalized in 2018.

Ben later married Jennifer Lopez in 2022 but she notably filed for divorce on their second wedding anniversary in August 2024.

Earlier this year in January, their divorce was settled but he wasn’t declared legally single until last month on February 21 when the marriage was legally dissolved.

Both Affleck and Garner were also seen arriving to the paintball park near Los Angeles – and the actor flashed a big smile while he conversed with the 13 Going On 30 actress.

The two stars embracing during the outing soon sent the internet into a frenzy – and a source informed DailyMail.com how Garner feels about ‘rekindling’ her romance with Ben.

The mother-of-three is currently in a relationship with John Miller, and the couple were recently spotted spending time together after the paintball excursion with her ex.

The insider stated that she is ‘deathly afraid of falling back in love’ with Affleck and has ‘trust issues’ when it comes to the actor. The pair divorced after Affleck reportedly had an affair with their children’s nanny Christine Ouzounian.

‘She loves Ben but is worried that he will crush her all over again,’ the source continued.

‘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.’

Another insider told DailyMail.com that Ben wants to possibly make a movie with Garner – after working together on Pearl Harbor (2001) and Daredevil (2003).

‘Ben has so many ideas popping in his head, he feels like he knows just what to do with her.

‘He feels that her true talents have not been brought to light and he is just the producer who can find her the right material. She can do both drama and comedy so he feels there are a lot of opportunities for her skills,’ the source said.

Following her hug with Ben, another insider informed Page Six this month that her boyfriend John Miller has issued her an ‘ultimatum.’

John knows there’s nothing going on between Jen and Ben, but he doesn’t think those photos are a good look and feels it’s disrespectful to their relationship.’

The source added that the businessman ‘gave Jen an ultimatum – he doesn’t want to see anything like that again or he has no choice but to walk away.’

And a separate insider told DailyMail.com that Miller had also been a bit bothered by Jennifer and Ben ‘being touchy-feely.’

They further expressed, ‘It would get to anyone, but this is nothing new. Ben and Jen have a unique relationship, especially for exes.’

However, it seems all is well between John and Garner as the pair were recently spotted this week on a date at Brentwood Country Mart in L.A.

The couple – who began dating in 2018 – were seen ‘holding hands and kissing’ and were also ‘very cute with one another.’

A source told DailyMail.com, ‘They are still going strong and appear to be doing really well.

‘They looked happy and at ease like they were a married couple that is thriving. They laughed and smiled at each other. Very cute.

‘Both were dressed casually and she had no makeup on, her hair down. He had on a coat and jeans.’
