Ben Affleck’s Dad Timothy Died Within Months of Mom Chris Anne, Brother Casey Reveals

Ben Affleck has lost both parents within a single year, with his father Timothy Affleck dying only months after his mother Chris Anne. The revelation came from his brother Casey Affleck during a press conference at the Venice Film Festival, confirming that the siblings shared the same bereavement.

The twin losses represent a profound personal blow to the Oscar‑winner and his family, as they navigate grief amid public scrutiny. The reports do not disclose the cause or exact dates of Timothy’s death, and details beyond the timing remain sparse.

The Boston Globe described the festival announcement, while Yahoo and InStyle repeated the chronology; the Daily Beast noted the secrecy surrounding the father's passing. Further information about the circumstances and any effect on Affleck’s upcoming projects has yet to emerge.
