Jennifer Garner is sharing her star with her mom!
On Monday, May 27, the Family Switch star, 52, revealed that she took a stroll on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles and found her star with her mother Patricia Ann Garner.
In a video posted to her Instagram Stories, Garner could be seen panning across the stars on the sidewalk before coming to a stop at her own. She could then be heard exclaiming, “It’s here,” as her mom read it out, “Jennifer Garner.”
“There you go. You stand there mom. You stand on that,” the actress said as her mom stepped into the frame of the video. Patricia then moved to stand on the star and shot a bright smile at the camera.

In a follow-up photo, Garner shared a snap of herself standing on her own star with the words, “It’s still there,” written over it.
The Alias actress received her star in August 2018 alongside her parents Pat and William and sisters Susannah and Melissa. Her children Violet, 18, and Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, whom she shares with ex-husband Ben Affleck, were also at the ceremony.
Garner dedicated the star to her three children at the time in her speech, saying, “When you walk over this star, I want you to remember that this is about hard work and good luck and not a whole lot else.”

“You define me, not this wonderful spot on the pavement,” she jokingly added.
Earlier this month, Garner celebrated her mother’s 86th birthday with a tribute on social media as she shared a carousel of funny videos featuring her mom giving her cooking tips on video calls and lamenting about exercising.
“This is a Pat Garner stan account. ♥️😂 I love you, Mom, happy 86th birthday! 🥳.”

Garner, who is close with her mother and often posts videos of her on social media, also recently shared on the Kelly Corrigan Wonders: About Your Mother podcast that she’s implemented some of Patricia’s parenting tips while raising her own children.
“My mom always says when they’re being their worst, that’s when they need the biggest hug,” Garner shared. “She has a lot of things she says, but one of them is, ‘Anytime you can say yes, say yes, be very liberal with your yeses and save your nos. And that closing your mouth is worth a million nos.'”
Garner’s father William died in March, with the 13 Going on 13 star announcing on Instagram that he had “passed peacefully.”
“My sisters and I will never be done talking about how wonderful he was, so bear with us,” she wrote, adding, “but for today I share these memories with my appreciation for the kind and brilliant man, father, and grandfather he was, as well as the loving legacy he left behind.”
