Jen Affleck broke down in tears as she got a sentimental Christmas present from her husband, Zac Affleck
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star was gifted her "favorite" costume she wore while competing on Dancing with the Stars
"I think it's that time of the month, where, like, just everything makes me cry," Jen said, reacting to Zac's present
Jen Affleck got a sentimental Christmas present from her husband.
In honor of the annual December holiday, Zac Affleck gifted The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star, 26, a momento from her time competing on Dancing with the Stars — her "favorite" costume.
In a TikTok video, Jen could be seen opening a card from Zac, who posed behind her with the wrapped present. As she began to unwrap the gift, Jen said, "I'm already crying. I think it's that time of the month, where, like, just everything makes me cry."
After a majority of the wrapping paper was removed from Zac's gift, Jen realized it was the gold dress she wore during DWTS' TikTok Night. (The reality star came in ninth place on the competition series, where she was partnered with professional dancer Jan Ravnik.)
Wiping away tears, Jen told Zac, "How did you know? This one was my favorite," which prompted her husband to respond, "I wanted it to represent your postpartum journey." The pair is parents to three children: Penny, 5 months, Luca, 2, and Nora, 4.

Sharing a warm embrace, Jen then continued to admire her thoughtful gift, joking that it was "better" than the Mirrorball Trophy given to DWTS winners.
She also teased her spouse, asking Zac, "How are you gonna come up with a better [gift] than that?" (His response? "You better keep doing cool things.")
Jen has been soaking up family time since her elimination from DWTS earlier this fall. She previously said she saw being sent home as the silver lining, as it was in time to celebrate daughter Nora's 4th birthday.
"POV: The universe made sure you didn't miss your daughters [sic] 4th birthday🤍," she wrote alongside a video of herself getting her house decorated for the birthday girl at the time.
In the post's caption, Jen added, "My mirrorball trophy 🤍."

Following Jen's week 7 elimination from DWTS, she wrote in a social media post: "Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened.”
"My heart hurts knowing this chapter ends and I won’t be on stage Tuesday night, but I’m endlessly grateful for the ride and for showing my kids what their mom can do🤍," Jen continued in her post's caption, which included a video recapping her DWTS experience and the moments she got to share with her children.
