In a heartfelt moment at a memorial service for Jennifer Garner’s father, Hollywood actor Ben Affleck and Garner’s 15-year-old child bravely came out as transgender. The teenager, previously known as their daughter, announced their new name, Fin Affleck, and recited a verse from the Bible while dressed in a black tuxedo and sporting a buzz cut.
The news of Fin’s transition comes after Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner ended their marriage in 2015 and now share custody of their three children, including Fin, as well as their other children Violet Anne, 19, and Samuel Garner, 12. While both actors have been vocal about protecting their children’s privacy, they have also been advocates for legislation to protect children’s identities in published photos.
Jennifer Garner recently took to Instagram to share the news of her father’s passing, expressing her grief and appreciation for him. The post was a touching tribute to her father’s memory and the loving legacy he left behind.
As Fin Affleck bravely and openly embraces their true identity, the Hollywood couple continues to navigate co-parenting and support their children through life’s milestones. The family’s openness and acceptance of Fin’s transgender identity serve as a powerful example of love and support for the LGBTQ+ community.
