Jennifer Garner kept close to her elderly mother, Patricia Ann Garner, on Monday as the two stepped out in New York City. The 52-year-old Alias alum looked chic in white trousers, a white crew neck T-shirt, and a navy cardigan with white stripes. She added a pop of color with a small, cranberry-hued satchel that she wore crossbody-style.
Pat, 86, coordinated with her daughter in a cream-toned sweater and blouse, with the addition of black pants that cropped at her ankles. It comes after the mother-daughter duo made an appearance on the Today show Monday morning, during which they discussed the death of Jennifer’s dad, William Garner.

Underneath the eyewear the mom-of-three, whose ex-husband is Ben Affleck, looked pretty in a full face of makeup. Her glossy brunette locks were styled in an off-center part as they bounced over her shoulders. She secured her pants with a thin, black, leather belt and rounded out her look with a pair of white sneakers.
Garner’s mom’s short, graying hair was neatly cropped and she wore a long, gold necklace with a pendant. During the morning chat with Today host Hoda Kotb, the subject of Pat’s husband William came up. Kotb, 59, noted, ‘Another thing we admire about you is your husband passed a little bit ago — and I can only imagine how hard it was to get out of bed, to just start another day — but one day you just decided, “Today’s the day.”‘
Pat replied: ‘Well I pretty much decided anyway, before, that I would be all right. I was so worried about being a widow and then one day I had an epiphany, “You will be alright.”
‘And I really have been all right. Now, I miss him and I so wanted to tell him I was gonna be on the Today show…’ Pat continued as Hoda wiped away tears.

After dinner, Jennifer warmly hugged an elder fan outside on the pavement who looked lovely in pink
Jennifer, who was once married to Ben Affleck, put a hand over her head to adjust her hair as she looked off at something
She put both of her hands behind her back and smiled, showing off her impossibly smooth visage
Jennifer then crouched down with a fan’s dog who wore a Burberry jacket. She has three dogs herself, as well as a cat and a chicken!
Turning to her mom, Jennifer gushed: ‘He loved how much people love you, so he would be right there smiling,’ as co-host Savannah Guthrie confirmed the couple were married for 59 years.
When Hoda mentioned Jennifer’s April 1 Instagram tribute to her father, the actress replied: ‘Oh yeah, I mean how lucky to grow up with parents like mine. I’ve always been aware of it, my sisters and I are… we’re always really aware.’
Jennifer praised her mom and shared her favorite things about her.
‘I mean, I have a pretty special mom. So, my mom is not judgmental of people or of things or if things are happening to you. She is just kind of gifted at giving to people and seeing what people need and just quietly taking care of them,’ she shared as she held her mom’s hand.
