Aww...Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner announce their divorce after 10 years of marriage

Sigh! So sad to hear this! After 10 years and three children together, Hollywood actors Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have officially split. They announced their split today, exactly 10 years and a day after they married (which was on on June 29, 2005). Below is the statement they released to E! News
"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce. We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time."
The pair have three children together; Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3. Was rooting for them!

      Linda, you have some seriously retarded people on this blog. They are the first to comment, and their comments are so stupid and irrelevant that it's stomach churning. How can a response to the news that a couple are to divorce after 10 years be "eya good for them"????? Get a life will you!

      There was an interview i watch on E! some years back. I can vividly recall jennifer garner saying she always trys to bring out a little jealously from affleck whenever she could but he was never jealous. My tots back then was she was just a rebound for him after the jlo breakup. He didn't love her he just need to replace jlo with someone. She was the one that made it last till now.
