He accessorized his look with aviator sunglasses and a black baseball cap.

It’s no surprise that Damon made the effort to be there for Affleck’s second set of “I dos.” (He was previously wed to Jennifer Garner from 2005 until 2018.)

During a 2016 interview with “Entertainment Tonight,” Damon explained that he and Affleck shared an unbreakable bond. 

“I’ve known him for 35 years, and we grew up together,” he said at the time. “We were both in love with the same thing — acting and filmmaking. I think we fed on each other’s obsession during really formative, important years and that bonded us for life.”

Damon and Barroso’s arrival came hours after the Daily Mail reported that Affleck’s mom, Christopher Anne Boldt, was rushed to the hospital following a fall from the dock of her famous son’s Southern estate.
