Garner and Affleck, 42, announced on June 30 they were divorcing after 10years of marriage, but both have continued to be spotted with their wedding rings, with People reporting they believe keeping the rings on will make the adjustment easier for their three children. 

'The kids are a big part of why they're still wearing them,' a source told the weekly. 

Garner and Affleck are parents of Violet, aged nine; Seraphina, aged six; and Samuel, aged three, who are spending the summer with Garner in Atlanta.

Batman v Superman star Affleck was seen wearing his wedding ring at Comic-Con in San Diego on Saturday, and again at the ESPY awards on Wednesday. 

Taking to the stage to present former New York Yankees star Derek Jeter with the ESPN Icon Award, Affleck even made a joke about heartbreak, although it was related to sport and not his marriage.

The Argo director is set star in the upcoming blockbuster Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. It has also been announced that the Oscar-winning star will write and direct a stand-alone Batman movie.

Garner is also staying focused on her career, throwing herself into filming soon after news of the split was made public. 

During her marriage, Affleck's career seemed to take precedence as Garner dialed back her acting roles to focus on raising their children.

Miracles from Heaven is the actress' first faith-based film, but she has previously starred in uplifting family fare including The Odd Life of Timothy Green, and Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

The pair's children were all baptized in Garner's family parish Christ Church United Methodist in her hometown of Charleston, West Virginia.

New Grey's Anatomy hunk Martin Henderson will also appear in the inspirational film, which producers hope will tap into the profitable Christian film market.

Garner is also in production for film Nine Lives with Kevin Spacey.
