Ben Affleck and wife Jennifer Garner have a pretty good set up: when one of them is working the other takes care of their three children (which led to Ben giving up directing Homeland,) and lately it’s been Ben’s turn on baby watch, which may be why he’s ready to stop having kids.
When asked by Extra if he and Jennifer were going to make any more additions to their family, Ben replied “I hope not! No, that’s not going to happen. We’re in a really good place… three is good, that’s enough!” At the same event, he gushed to US Weekly about how important his children are to him. “Raising kids is the greatest thing I think a person, or at least I, could ever do in my life,” he said. “I know what the best part of my life is and it’s my kids and it doesn’t mean there aren’t other things that aren’t great, but I know sort of what the center is.”
Last September Jennifer told Ellen DeGeneres that she was done having children too, but noted that “my husband is a wonder sperm kinda guy… I mean just have a look at him.”
The couple married in 2005 after meeting on the set of Daredevil. Their children are daughters Violet, 7, and, Seraphina, 4, and son Samuel, 15 months. Jennifer was previously wed to her Felicity co-star Scott Foley from 2000-3.
Jennifer is staying pretty busy these days. She filmed The Dallas Buyers Club last fall, and is currently filming Draft Day, and has the upcoming projects Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No good, Very Bad Day, and Imagine.
