Affleck also meets up with his children.
“The kids are still off from school. He spends a lot of time with them, too,” the insider added.
Affleck and Lopez didn’t spend the summer together, with Lopez enjoying time in Europe and the Hamptons, while Affleck stayed in Los Angeles.
The couple have been facing issues in their marriage for several months now.
