In a new interview, Jennifer Garner opened up about how she handled her highly publicized divorce from actor Ben Affleck and what helped her find peace in the years since their split. The Alias star, who is promoting the second season of her Apple TV+ series The Last Thing He Told Me, said she made a conscious decision to stay away from tabloid coverage throughout the process. Garner explained that avoiding gossip and speculation allowed her to focus on her wellbeing and protect her three children, whom she shares with Affleck: Violet, Seraphina and Samuel.
Garner and Affleck, who were married for a decade before confirming their separation in 2015, have maintained a collaborative co-parenting relationship. She said the emotional challenge wasn’t external scrutiny but the personal reality of breaking up a family and losing a close partnership and friendship.
She described learning to let go of gossip and stay grounded as instrumental in her ability to move forward while remaining close to her children and working in Hollywood.
