Rumours that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were calling time on their marriage have been circulating for the past few months, and sadly the news has now been confirmed.
Ben, 42 and 43-year-old Jennifer have been married for ten years and have three children together –Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3.
In an official statement, the couple said: "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."
Rumours about the pair splitting were fuelled most recently when moving vans were spotted outside the family home.
Meanwhile, a source previously claimed the pair's marriage was "in trouble" and that there had been problems from the "very beginning".
The source said: "Where there's smoke, there's fire. The marriage is in trouble.
"[They] have had problems from the very beginning."
The source also alleged it was Ben's "workaholic" nature and "many vices," which caused the couple to call time on their marriage.
Another insider added: “Jen has actually been preparing herself emotionally for this divorce for some time."
