Reports concerning the couple’s difficulties often cited Affleck’s lifestyle, including alleged gambling and drinking issues. Despite their challenges, Garner frequently emphasized that Affleck was a devoted father, although she expressed concern over behavior she viewed as preferential toward their son. She publicly maintained a respectful tone, avoiding accusations and emphasizing her commitment to her children’s well-being.

Separation and Aftermath

The couple announced their separation in 2015 after ten years of marriage. While rumors surfaced regarding Affleck’s alleged infidelity and gambling, neither Garner nor Affleck confirmed these claims publicly. Garner did not pursue any known relationships during her marriage or immediately after their separation. Unlike her previous divorce, which she described as emotionally difficult, Garner appeared more composed in handling the breakup with Affleck.

The two continued to co-parent their children and remained publicly supportive of each other’s roles as parents. Despite speculation, neither party confirmed specific reasons for the separation, and both emphasized privacy and maturity throughout the process.

Personal Life and Public Image

Jennifer Garner did not have any children with Scott Foley, and her marriage to Ben Affleck was her second. Ben Affleck had not been previously married before his relationship with Garner. Despite media rumors and public scrutiny, Garner has maintained a largely positive public image, focusing on philanthropy, parenting, and her career. Her approach to privacy and respectful handling of personal matters has contributed to a reputation for professionalism in both her personal and public life.
