Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have split!

After 10 years of marriage -- they celebrated their anniversary on June 29 -- the power couple confirmed their split following months of media speculation.

"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce," the couple said in a joint statement. "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. This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding."

Ben and Jen have three children: Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3.

Over the years, they have dealt with rumors about the state of their marriage, but they were always able to work their issues out. That is, until now.

The former couple will file for divorce, however, it will reportedly not be done immediately until custody and property issues are resolved.

10 Hollywood years = 70 human years. Not too bad.

I stopped watching Royal Pains, because the show got redundant after some time. But in the last episode I watched, a couple had a “divorce reception” where they celebrated getting divorced and being single again. I had the feeling that this may really happen, especially in Hollywierd.

Wonderful, 3 pre-teen kids and they are splitting. Freakin’ idiots. I guess “for better or worse” flew over their heads.

Wouldn’t it be nice to read this for once?

“After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision NOT to divorce, and to put the needs of our CHILDREN and SOCIETY before our own selfish, navel-gazing needs.”

But, I guess that wouldn’t sell newspapers or website hits, LOL!

Affleck is so left politically and supportive of Obama he probably went full gay in support of the recent SC decision. If you see Matt Damon hanging out over there it will confirm my suspicions...

A couple of generations back, on my Dad’s side of the family, a married Catholic couple in Bardstown, Kentucky didn’t get along. She lived in the house, he lived in the barn. They had seven children. Divorce was absolutely out of the question. Is it better to stay together for the sake of the children? At last Wednesday’s General Audience, Pope Francis discussed how children can be deeply wounded by what happens between their parents.
