Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are the latest. Less than three years later: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner finalized their divorce
Many stars are addicted to short-term romances, but there are also those celebrities whose couples seem to personify the ideal relationship. This is exactly how Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner looked flawless and touching. Their romance, which caused endless affection for fans and even journalists, soon led to marriage. But out of the blue, the tabloids were stirred up by the news that the long-term union had collapsed. Why did Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner break up?
Love is not at first sight
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were first brought together by fate in 2001. It happened on the set of Pearl Harbor. But then the actors had no time to pay attention to each other. Ben healed heart wounds after breaking up with Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jennifer was even married to actor Scott Foley.
Again, the heavenly forces brought the future lovers together in 2003. They had an on-screen romance in Daredevil and were even nominated for MTV's Best Kiss. However, this time Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner remained just friends in real life, because Ben plunged headlong into a passionate affair with sexy Jennifer Lopez. Garner was saddened by the crisis brewing in her marriage.
Through thorns to each other
It seemed that the relationship between Lopez and Affleck would inevitably end with a wedding. Bennifer, as the couple was nicknamed, even got engaged. However, in 2004, the singer's agent officially notified the press and the public that the engagement was canceled. In pursuit of PR, celebrities have lost their love.
The paparazzi fanned a scandalous sensation from every smallest detail of their romance to be placed on the front pages of the tabloids. Lopez later mentioned that her ex-lover loves to complicate things, and Ben himself sadly stated that the fatal affair with J.Lo had a negative impact not only on his emotional state, but also on his career. For some time, he ceased to be an independent creative unit, and was mentioned in the press only as the boyfriend of the pop diva.
Perhaps Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner now began to feel each other especially subtly precisely because of their related failures in their personal lives. Garner's marriage became a bowl that could no longer be glued. Around the time J.Lo and Ben split up, the actress divorced
Career failure as a path to happiness
For the third time, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner collided on the set of the 2004 film Electra. It was then that they saw in each other what they had been looking for for a long time. "Electra" did not become a box office hit and received negative reviews from critics, and the scene with Ben was completely cut out of the final version of the film. However, the newly minted lovers did not care about this minor career failure. Affleck realized that he had fallen in love with the wrong Jennifer by mistake. Garner did not try to pull the blanket over herself, she was sweet, sincere and kind-hearted, the one that any man subconsciously would like to see his wife.
The novel, which had been brewing for so long, began to develop very rapidly. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, whose photos left no doubt about their mutual tenderness, did not postpone the wedding on the back burner and secretly got married in 2005. The celebration took place on the legendary island of Parrot Cay, which has become the wedding site of many celebrities. Only relatives and close friends were invited to the ceremony. Ben, tired of the ubiquitous reporters in a relationship with J.Lo, took a new romance like the apple of his eye. In addition, Garner already needed double care - she was pregnant with her first child. Very soon, the daughter of actors was born, who was given the feminine name Violet.
Dream family
Ben and Jennifer did not try to overtake each other in acting success. Garner, as an exemplary wife, happily began to live in the shadow of her famous spouse, focusing on careful care of him and the children. Ben and Jennifer became parents three times: in 2009, their second daughter, Seraphina, was born, and in 2012, Garner gave her heir Samuel, inspired by happiness, to her husband.
It seemed that in perfection the couple could only compete with the legendary Brangelina. But in 2013, the first signals appeared that everything was far from perfect in Affleck and Garner's relationship. At the Oscar ceremony, Ben, having become the owner of the coveted statuette, instead of a tearful speech about love, rather dryly thanked his wife for "taking care of their marriage." The complex character of the actor could not hide for a long time under a fine-looking Hollywood smile - Affleck again returned to his old hobby for alcohol and gambling. The one whom the public considered an impeccable spouse often spent the night outside the house and spent more than one evening in bars, and not with his family.
The last drop of patience
Garner endured her husband's antics for a long time and reassured herself that no one is perfect. She sought advice from numerous family psychologists, but her limitless patience has reached its limit. In June 2015, it became known that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were getting divorced. The reason for this turn of events was also the details that surfaced about Affleck's shameless betrayal. His secret passion was not a colleague in the shop, but their nanny with Jennifer's children!
Nevertheless, after a while, the star spouses again withdrew the divorce documents. It is not known what a "second chance" in a relationship with her husband the forgiving Garner decided to give again, who was just right to be canonized. She dutifully waited for her husband to realize his mistakes, but this was not destined to come true. In April 2017, Affleck and Garner nevertheless began divorce proceedings due to "irreconcilable differences."
Famous American actress Jennifer Garner, who survived with Hollywood star Ben Affleck, is reportedly having an affair with a handsome man.
Who is Jennifer Garner's new lover?
Lately, the star of the movie "From 13 to 30" smiles a lot. Despite the sadly ended romantic relationship with Ben Affleck, with whom the divorce took place in early October, Garner blooms and smells. What is the reason?
The fact is, the 46-year-old actress is in love. The beauty's chosen one was a man six years younger than her - 40-year-old businessman John Miller. Their romance has reportedly been going on for the past six months.
Jennifer's relationship news surfaced just two weeks after she and her ex-husband signed the divorce papers.
Miller is the CEO of CaliGroup, which owns Miso Robotics and the CaliBurger chain of 50 restaurants.
According to an insider, the couple have been together for six months and their relationship is getting more serious every day. "Jen brings out the best in John, which makes him very happy. They have a healthy and loving relationship," added the insider.
It is known that the businessman has also gone through a divorce in the past.
Jennifer Garner's new life
After the divorce, sources said the actress was "ready to begin the next phase of her life."
She has a long history of relationship with Affleck. The couple got married in 2005. They had three wonderful children - Violet, who is now 12 years old, Seraphina - 9 years old and Samuel - 6 years old. They broke up after ten years of marriage, and filed for divorce in April 2017. Their marriage officially fell apart on October 4, 2018 when they signed the divorce papers.
Meanwhile, the couple is trying to maintain a great relationship. They support each other for the sake of children. This is evidenced by one of the recent cases, when the star of "Batman". Jennifer personally took her ex-husband to a rehabilitation center.
The couple announced their divorce three years ago. As it turned out, the reason for the breakup was Affleck's betrayal with the housekeeper Christine Ouzunyan. The lovers tried to work on the relationship and even visited a psychologist to get out of the family crisis. However, the couple could not make up.
The other day, the official divorce procedure took place at the Garner house. The signing of the papers took place in the presence of lawyers and a judge. Despite the difficult situation for everyone, the actors emphasize that they will communicate, maintain friendly relations and remain loving parents for their children.
Recall that Ben and Jennifer are linked by common children: 12-year-old Violet, 9-year-old Seraphima and 5-year-old Samuel. Most likely, the children will live with their mother, as it was before the divorce. Moreover, in the life of Ben Affleck there were quite often periods when his condition caused concern among his friends and relatives. Jennifer often admitted that the actor often behaves like her fourth child and is prone to addictions. At one time, the actor needed serious treatment for gambling addiction. The Hard Rock Casino in Las Vegas even banned the Hollywood artist from playing blackjack for life. The owners of the establishment thought that Ben was playing too well, and, in addition, was engaged in card counting.
Now a black streak has come in the life of a Hollywood actor: Affleck is addicted to alcoholic beverages. The case has taken on such a serious turn that due to an addiction Ben may lose his career. Affleck was admitted to a drug addiction clinic for the second time in a year. Because of this, employees of the Warner Brothers film company are seriously considering breaking the contract with the actor for the role in the Batman film, as his treatment can be expensive.
However, Garner never tires of telling everyone that Affleck is a great dad for his kids. So, recently, on Father's Day, in her microblogging, the actress wrote to her ex-husband a touching message: “Our children are lucky that they have a dad who looks at them the way you look at them and loves them the way you love them ".
Children supported Jennifer Garner at the inauguration of her personalized star on the Walk of Fame. But Ben Affleck was not in the support team!

Despite the fact that after the divorce, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have maintained friendly relations, they still celebrate personal victories separately. So, yesterday the actress received a personalized star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and among those who supported her that day were all her relatives - two daughters, a son, parents and sisters with husbands and children, as well as colleagues Steve Karel, Brian Cranston and Judy Greer, and here Affleck didn’t come.
Perhaps he was busy with his new love - a young Playboy model Seona Sexton? Over the past few days, the actor and his passion (with television producer Lindsay Shukus, apparently, he broke up) have already been photographed on dates several times.
Be that as it may, the celebration went great without Affleck.
But the most curious thing was different. Although Garner and the children often fall into the lenses of the paparazzi, we seem to have not seen so close the mother and her eldest daughter Violet for a long time. And we have the opportunity to consider how similar they are - the girl literally grew up as a copy of the actress! And the youngest, curiously, on the contrary, is very similar to her father.
Recall that Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have been married for 10 years and announced their separation just on the last anniversary. True, after that they lived together for two more years, as if nothing had happened, until the head of the family finally left the common house and began to meet with Lindsay Shukus.
