The 52-year-old actress wore sleek navy blue leggings, a simple black shirt, and white sneakers, displaying a relaxed and athletic appearance. Despite her fit look, some social media users quickly jumped to conclusions, speculating about a possible pregnancy. One user casually asked, “Is she Prego [sic]?”
Another puzzled netizen questioned, “😳 pregnant?” A curious commenter excitedly mused, “How many months along us she? Cute pregnant belly [sic]! 😂😂😂” while another expressed doubt, “looks like she’s pregnant or am i dreaming [sic]?”
More comments emerge about Jennifer’s appearance. “You look fine,” one user said while another stated, “She looks pregnant 😍.” Someone else remarked, “If she is pregnant, she does not care and good for her🙌😍😍 [sic].”

The conversation about Garner being possibly pregnant persisted. “Is she pregnant?” one asked, while another noted, “It looks weird from the stomach.” Another user stated, “Omg. Yes. She does look pregnant. But how old is she? Maybe its an ordinary buldge [sic].”

This recent wave of speculation recalls a similar situation from 2020 when Garner addressed pregnancy rumors directly after sharing a photo from her family’s Oklahoma farm on Instagram.
At that time, someone commented on her post, asking, “Are you pregnant?!” while another observer commented, “U actually kinda do look pregnant, and in concealing oversized clothes! It’s BECAUSE you have 3 kids they ask! No rudeness there [sic].”
In response, Jennifer clarified that she was not expecting. “I am 48, have three healthy kids, and am not — and never will be — pregnant. We can lay that pupper to rest [sic],” Garner stated.

She also clarified that any physical changes were not due to pregnancy, possibly attributing them to weight gain during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition to addressing these rumors, Jennifer highlighted her experience as a mother of three with ex-husband Ben Affleck, revealing in a 2021 interview the challenges of maintaining a particular physique post-pregnancy.

Unlike some women who effortlessly regain their pre-baby bodies, Jennifer observed, “They could — no matter how many babies they have — they bounce right back to that slim hips, no stomach, I mean it’s incredible. I have so many girlfriends who have that physique and I’m so happy for them…I am not one of them, that is not my that’s not my gig.”

In a January 2024 feature for Women’s Health Magazine, Jennifer shared that her day starts early, with a 5:00 a.m. coffee followed by a 5:30 a.m. Zoom workout with Beth Nicely that combines dance cardio, plyometrics, and strength training.
As for breakfast, it happens around 10:00 in the morning. Jennifer typically eats whole-fat yogurt with nuts, berries, and sometimes an apple. For lunch, she enjoys a hearty salad with arugula, vegetables like green beans and broccoli, and a prepped half-sweet potato.
Dinner includes family-friendly meals such as roast chicken, mashed potatoes, or homemade pizza crackers. Jennifer often incorporates fresh garden vegetables into her dishes.
Jennifer is also a fan of snacks, particularly popcorn. She previously celebrated National Popcorn Day by sharing her method for making “the world’s best popcorn” on Instagram, highlighting her love for this simple yet satisfying treat.
While Jennifer’s commitment to a healthy lifestyle is well-documented, her public appearances often draw attention not just for her fitness, but also for her family dynamics, as seen in a grocery outing with her child Seraphina Rose, now known as Fin.
Jennifer’s trip to the supermarket with Fin certainly caught the internet’s attention. The pair turned heads as they were spotted exiting the store with arms full of brown bags.

The “13 Going on 30” star opted for a laid-back look, donning navy blue leggings, a loose-fitting navy top, sneakers, and stylish black sunglasses. Meanwhile, Fin’s outfit sparked quite the conversation online. The 15-year-old chose to keep it cozy in pajama pants paired with a polka-dotted T-shirt, a pendant necklace, and sneakers.
As they enjoyed their day out in the warm weather, social media users couldn’t help but weigh in on their fashion choices. “Why is this woman always looking slobby,” asked one critic referring to Jennifer.

“Just another person wearing their pajamas to a store,” one commenter remarked, about Fin’s outfit. “No one rocks pajama pants,” another chimed in. Someone else echoed similar sentiments, “You are never ‘rocking’ pajama pants in public.”
Opinions varied widely, with some users suggesting that pajama pants are never appropriate for public outings. Others couldn’t help but notice Fin’s striking resemblance to their dad, with comments like “She’s got her daddy’s jaw” and “Image of Ben Affleck”
Despite the fashion critiques, many praised Jennifer for her strong bond with her children. “Love that she has such a wonderful relationship with her kids. She’s a good egg,” one fan gushed.

This isn’t the first time Fin has grabbed public attention. Back in April, Fin made the public aware at a family event that they have a new name: Fin Affleck. This happened at a memorial service for Jennifer’s dad, William Jack Garner, held at Christ Church United Methodist in Charleston, West Virginia.
This was the first time Fin used their new name in public. Wearing a chic black suit and sporting a buzz-cut hairstyle, Fin approached the lectern and introduced themselves with, “Hello my name is Fin Affleck.”
Fin then proceeded to read a verse from the Bible that highlights how qualities like benevolence and honesty outweigh the materialistic value of being a bad person with a lot of wealth.

The service was to remember Jennifer’s dad who had died at 85 years old. Jennifer had initially publicized her father’s passing by posting a tribute to him on Instagram, which mentioned how kind, strong, and doting he was.

Jennifer also emphasized how much of an impactful life he led and spoke about the lasting legacy he created for his family, a legacy which is now passed down to Fin and their siblings.
As the middle child of three, Fin has an older sister, Violet Affleck, who is 18, and a younger brother, Samuel Affleck, who is 12. Though their parents, Jennifer and Ben, separated in 2015 and officially divorced in 2018, they still get along well for the sake of their children.

In 2022, Ben married famous singer, Jennifer “JLo” Lopez, blending both of their families with the addition of JLo’s twins Emme and Max Muñiz. Like their stepsibling Fin, Emme uses they/them pronouns.

Reflecting on Finn’s journey of self-discovery, by boldly asserting how they want to be addressed, Finn follows the same path as many other celebrity kids.

Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have mentioned how their child, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt preferred dressing like a boy as a kid and wanted to be called “John or Peter.”

Similarly, other stars like Jamie Lee Curtis, whose child Ruby is transgender, and Dwyane Wade, whose child Zaya has also come out as transgender, have shared their stories of support.

When it comes to defining oneself, names and pronouns hold a significant level of importance as they can say a lot about who we are as people. As Fin starts using their new name, they are adding to a bigger conversation about the value of individuals embracing who they are.

Though their name might be new, this change is not the first time Fin has boldly embraced their self-identity. In February 2024, the teen was seen rocking a vibrant hairstyle, showing another form of self-expression.
Fin debuted a pink buzz cut, igniting a spectrum of reactions on social media. The change was revealed during a family outing in West Hollywood.

Accompanied by Ben and Emme, they were seen visiting a thrift store. They walked out with bags after shopping around. While Fin wore a flannel shirt with a T-shirt underneath and Adidas sneakers, Emme opted for shorts, a baggy hoodie, and Converse sneakers.

Social media responses to Fin’s new hairstyle were diverse. Comments included observations on their resemblance to their father, with one user noting, “Wow, she looks like her dad.” Similarly, another expressed, “She does look like her dad. She’s beautiful.”

In May, Fin also rocked another bold hair transformation. Fin debuted a super-short chic red haircut at her sister, Violet’s high school graduation. The public reactions to Fin Affleck‘s hair reflect broader societal conversations about youth and self-expression.
Although Fin has garnered significant traction online, they do not have a social media account. This decision was previously discussed by Jennifer, who has kept her children off of social media.
Last year, Jennifer shared a conversation she had with her children. The star divulged, “I just said to my kids, ‘Show me the articles that prove that social media is good for teenagers, and then we’ll have that conversation.'”

She said that so far, her eldest daughter, Violet, has been appreciative of her decision not to allow them on social media. As a mother of two teens and a son who is almost a teenager, Jennifer understands how “hard” it is “to be an adolescent.”
Jennifer has made it clear that her family’s well-being is her priority. Whether talking about her three kids or addressing pregnancy rumors, she emphasizes what’s most important: appreciating her current family rather than expanding it.
