The apple doesn’t fall away from the tree they say, and in the case of A-Lister Jennifer Garner and her daughter Violet, this saying can’t be more accurate.
The Dallas Buyers Club star is a mom of three. Her eldest daughter Violet is now 17 and everyone agrees that the teenager is a spitting image of her famous mom.
Some time ago, Violet made a public appearance when she accompanied her mom as her plus-one at the White House state dinner, a star-studded event many are looking forward to. The dinner was held to honor French President Emmanuel Macron and was hosted by the Bidens.
She and her mom were two of 400 VIPs who attended the event.
Garner shares Violet with her ex-husband, actor Ben Affleck.
For the occasion, Garner chose a floor-length, black Ralph Lauren gown with sequin accents on the sleeve which she paired with Stuart Weitzman shoes and a black clutch. Her daughter, who celebrated her 17th birthday on that day wore a thin-strapped Carolina Herrera dress with heart imprints, a black clutch and red, pointed-toe heels.
The duo walked into the event holding hands, gathering the attention of many.
However, what people were most stunned about was the uncanny resemblance between the mother and the daughter.
Fans were quick to comment. “Your date – my heart skipped a beat when I saw a photo,” one person wrote. “You and Violet looked stunning. What a night for you and her,” another added. “Violet looked stunning!” a third commented.
This was a rare public outing of the two as Garner doesn’t really expose her children to the public. Besides having parents who are very famous in the world of films, both in their own right, Violet and her siblings, sister Seraphina Rose, and brother Samuel, don’t live under the limelight. They are, however, occasionally pictured out.
Recently, they were pictured with their dad and his new wife, singer and actress Jennifer Lopez, during their honeymoon in Paris where they were together with their step-mom’s twins Emme and Max, who she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
Other famous people who attended the event at the White House were Batiste, Stephen Colbert, Ariana DeBose, John Legend, and Chrissy Teigen.
