Sept. 5 2018, Updated 6:24 p.m. ET
Ben Affleck is left rehab just two weeks after checking into emergency treatment center in Malibu, CA, and now RadarOnline.com has obtained first photos of the troubled actor after he ditched the facility. Affleck, 46, was snapped walking in his Pacific Palisades neighborhood and his Playboy girlfriend Shauna Sexton's car was spotted parked outside his house. As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Affleck had been drinking in Los Angeles before Garner picked him up and drove him to begin his latest stint in rehab at The Canyons on August 22. Click through for more on the story.
Although sources say Affleck is still in treatment and was only driven home by his therapist and coaches in order to workout at his home gym, the actor was spotted looking disheveled as speculation rises that he checked out of rehab.
Garner, 46, and their three children — Violet, 12, Seraphina, 9, and Samuel, 6 — were joining Affleck at the facility for "family counseling and intense therapy sessions.” A rep for the star claims Affleck is "still in treatment" but "works out" at home.
Insiders reveled to RadarOnline.com exclusively Affleck and Garner sat through a brutal two-hour “confession session” at the treatment center.
According to the source, the actor sat red-faced as he opened up about his affairs with their former nanny Christine Ouzounian and his other flings in order to create a “clean slate” with Garner for the sake of their kids.
“This is the latest sad chapter in Ben’s rehab journey,” the informant revealed. “He’s finding the process really painful, and this did nothing to help.”
