Ben Affleck denies marriage troubles

By Alexandra Heilbron on June 30, 2008 | 8 Comments

Ben Affleck recently denied that anything was wrong in his three-year marriage to actress Jennifer Garner. The couples’ rep stated they are not considering breaking up, and anything to the contrary is “100% completely fabricated.” Having lived a relatively low-key life since they got together, both Affleck and Garner dote on two-year-old daughter Violet. After his much-hyped high profile relationship with Jennifer Lopez, Affleck has taken some career hits but seems to be getting back on track with last year’s Gone Baby Gone and the can’t-miss ensemble comedy He’s Just Not That Into You with another Jennifer — Jennifer Aniston. Meanwhile, Garner has prided herself on her hometown values, and recently said to Marie Claire: “I don’t know what makes [the relationship] work. But it does.” Garner can next be seen in Ghosts of Girlfriends Past with Matthew McConaughey.

   I hope they don’t get a divorce…they seem right for each other…and Violet is so cute…

   I don’t believe this for one minute. They seem like a really good, solid couple, I think this is all just part of the Hollywood rumor mill.

   They seem to be an adorable couple who are doing everything right. Leave them alone and let them live their lives in private as best can be. I wish the very best for them. Sue from Gravenhurst Canada

   Even if they separate, we can take solace in the news that music superstar Ruben Studdard tied the knot this week.

   They look good together, seem like one big happy family so hopefully they are – whoever really knows what happens in “real life” for these celebrities. We will only ever see what the media puts out. A very small part of their life.
   The part we don’t see is most likely the most important part.

   Jo-anne I totally agree with you… we only see what the media wants us to see and what they think were going to read about, and i’m sure any of the story’s we do hear from them is only half the story…
