Jennifer Garner, who has been on legally married to Ben Affleck since 2005, is getting ready to be officially single. The former is reportedly set to file for divorce from the latter nearly two years after they first announced their split.
Garner and Affleck's romance was introduced to the public in October 2014 when they attended the Boston Red Sox's opening World Series games together. They got married in June 2005 and share three children, namely Violet Anne Affleck, Seraphine Rose Elizabeth Affleck and Samuel Affleck.
After a decade of marriage, Garner and Ben announced their intention to divorce on June 30, 2015. While previous reports claimed that they are making efforts to make things work, a source close to the couple told Us Weekly that the two have ended their relationship for good and is still planning to move forward with the divorce.
"No matter what happens, Ben and Jen are committed to raising their family as one unit and will continue to do so as it has worked for them," the source said, adding that Ben has already moved out of the Pacific Palisades mansion that they bought in 2009 for more than $17 million. "They are both committed to their family."
Despite their split, Garner sure had nice things to say about Ben. In a February 2016 interview with Vanity Fair, she admitted that if she had to do it all over again she would still marry the actor.
"I didn't marry the big fat movie star; I married him, and I would go back and remake that decision," Garner said. "I ran down the beach to him, and I would again."
The "13 Going on 30" star then dismissed rumors that a reconciliation could be on the cards, stating instead that they are just trying to do the best for their three children. For now, check out Affleck as Batman in Zack Synder's "Justice League" trailer below:
