Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have been friends for a long time. Their eldest daughters are now grown up – and the two actors are going through a phase of life that is “bittersweet” for them.
Hollywood stars Matt Damon (53) and Ben Affleck (51) share the experience of their children becoming independent: The fact that their 18-year-old daughters will soon be starting college is “bittersweet” for both fathers, Damon told the US portal “Access Hollywood”. “We are so proud of these two young women, they are incredible.”
Damon and his wife Luciana Barroso have three daughters in total. The eldest, Isabella, is 18 years old. Affleck’s eldest daughter Violet is also 18. He also has another daughter and a son with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner. He has been married to singer Jennifer Lopez (55) since 2022.
Affleck and his childhood friend Damon won an Oscar in 1998 for their shared screenplay for the film “Good Will Hunting.” Over the past few decades, both actors have shared “a whole lot” of profound experiences, Damon said. “It’s another incredible, profound change in both of our lives that we share together,” he said of his daughters’ upcoming college start.
On August 9, the new action comedy “The Instigators” will be released on Apple TV+, in which Damon and Ben Affleck’s brother Casey can be seen.
