Rumor: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are OVER - Page 7

happy8 · June 25th, 2008, 02:40 PM

Didn't the tabloids have them divorced about a year ago too? I remember seeing pics of them leaving a pet store with the headline that they are divorcing. I personally think she's pregnant again. Just my hunch.

My mama always said you don't get along get married and if you still ain't getting along, have a baby.

Ahe's a smart one, my mama.

There was even eyewitness where Puffy and her went to a spa, and they didnt carry pizza so puffy gave them 15,000 dollars to get 3 Large pizzas sent in from where JENNIFER wanted. She tried to do the same with Affleck. A restaurant didnt carry a milkshake she liked, so he had to pay up the ass, to get them to make her one. I think Diddy is the ONLY man she ever really loved and understood her Diva ways because he is a ass too.

As for that BI, I don't think its Jen/Ben. I'm calling Lopez/Marc. She hasn't seem liked she EVER loved him, she even looked more into Chris Judd then him. I bet they live seperate lives.

But it be hilarious if while making "He's just not that into you" Jennifer Aniston and he fell for each other and she is just "waiting for the media to tell her its over" so she can drop this publicity shit with Mayer, and go for Ben. And he will be with his TRUE LOVE Aniston. LOL. Maybe this is her meant to be. Next year she will be pregnant by Ben, and they will be Hollywoods "IT" couple. Garner will keep little Violet and let Ben have his vistation.

How funny would it be if Ben Affleck and Jennifer Anniston hooked up...? Heh heh... imagine a party around at Matt Damon's house with Ben and Jen Mk III, George Clooney and his latest hooker, Brad and Angie and their tribe... oh to be a fly on that wall...

Burn After Pleading

Updates on the sensational sitches we participated in (but, trust, did not start) regarding Jen Garner and Ben Affleck, not to mention Brangelina's balmier abodes. Plus, Paris puzzles while K-Fed muzzles. It's enough to make Britney Spears chain-smoke in court.
You Don't Say

It's no secret that the same source who first told us that Jen Garner was leaving Michael Vartan for Ben Affleck recently let us know Ms. G was now getting ready to similarly relieve herself of Affleck, or at least, the darlin' dimpled star was putting together an exit plan, getting ready for the big split, as it were. Affleck's camp strongly denied. Garner's camp, on the other hand, was mum toward us. Until now:

"No truth," relayed J.G.'s tough-talking New York rep. "They are fine." That's all we got until additional members of the family guiding the former Alias star added: "Someone really has it in for Jen. I don't understand—she's the nicest girl." Said Garner insider also insisted Jen's mom-in-law and Jenny are BFFs, quite contrary to what our original tipster implied. Who's tellin' the truth here, everybody?

As is always the case with a gossip column (which this happens to be, in case you've forgotten, hons—Anderson Cooper's gray-haired hotbed of unarguable fact we are not), time will most likely tell. Here's hopin' the predictors of marital peril are off!

Media P.S.: Some gosses sure are piranha-esque. Us Weekly screamed with an “exclusive” that our Jen and Ben story was “fabricated,” per Jen’s flack. Uh, no, not made up. I don’t do that. I’m not 3 years old, dears. And had you bothered to contact me for this story—or the one below, which Us editors apparently also delighted in putting their debunking spin on—I would have gladly offered up some edifying specifics and why we originally ran the items. But apparently, checking in with reporters isn’t done. Only gatekeepers to the stars are rung up for their spin control—to ensure future access to said celeb minders, natch. Journalistic integrity’s about as alive and well in this town as Michael Vartan’s heart.

I have to say: Jen seems to have much better PR people than Ben, imagine that! No wonder most of the pictures with Violet have her rather than Ben

I wonder if this source who spilled to Ted in the first place just put a major wrinkle in Jen's exit plan. For the life of me, though, I can't figure out why she'd exit- surely she had to sign a prenup. He's the one with the serious money.

Maybe this is Ben starting the lay the groundwork to run her out, just like he "helped" JLo along by starting the rumor of getting too cozy with some fans in Germany with Matt Damon.

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck shoot down Ted Casablanca breakup story

I’m still annoyed at Ted Casablanca for making me fall for his jargony claim that Brad and Angelina sold their New Orleans mansion. (Jaybird wrote that story, but I’m the one who sent it to her, I have to take the blame.) He said it with such conviction and used so many stupid adjectives that it just had to be true.
Well yesterday Casablanca reported in his roundabout twang that Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck were having trouble. Because I promised you guys that I wouldn’t rely on him for information anymore, I sat on my tingling hands and didn’t report it. It’s now at the top of the gossip aggregate site I visit multiple times a day, WeSmirch, and I was just about to reluctantly report it when I saw the denial from their reps.
Here’s what Casablanca said, and I’m rolling my eyes having to read this shit again. If you read between the lines, you can tell he’s just making assumptions because they’ve been seen out separately in photos.

Terribly unfortunate scuttlebutt has come my way. Sources insist to me that Jennifer Garner is considering splitting up from her hubby, Ben Affleck. Say it ain’t so, baby-cakes! Nevertheless, waiting on comment now from both parties. Could this be the reason Jen and Ben are always seen cooing over adorable daughter Violet separately, rarely as one happy family unit? Perhaps. And certainly, those who know the former Alias star well insist Ben’s mama has never particularly cared for the gal who broke Michael Vartan’s heart to hook up with Benny-Boy in the first place. Waiting on official PR responses to that little familial naughty nugget as, well, for what it’s worth. Much has to be divided, I’m told…planes, property. Wonder—if above baddie biz is true—if Benny-boy will be the gentleman Vartan was when he was cast aside? Let’s hope. I mean, don’t leave Vi-hon with the sitters too long if ya decide to hit the card tables, Mr. A!

[E! Online via Gossip Rocks]
Yes, terribly unfortunate scuttlebutt indeed. Well the reps for the Garner-Afflecks say it’s 100% fabricated:

A report by E!’s Ted Casablanca that Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are considering breaking up is “100% completely fabricated,” Garner’s rep tells Usmagazine.com.
The E! report speculated a potential split was “the reason Jen and Ben are always seen cooing over adorable daughter Violet separately.”
But Garner’s rep tells Us: “There is not one ounce of truth to it.”

[From US Weekly]
I’m glad I heard that before I reported this, even with the severe disclaimer I was about to slap on it. Now I have another reason to ignore this guy other than the fact that his writing makes my head spin.
Was the brief blip in traffic worth it for Casablanca? I ask myself that very question when I post celebrity upskirts.
Ben and Jen are shown at the White House Correspondents Dinner on 4/26/08, and with their daughter Violet, two and half, registering her for “the First Presbyterian Nursery School in Santa Monica” on 6/16/08, thanks to WENN.

Yeah, wonder if the drink is getting too much for him or if its one of his "sources"?? He was wrong on the Bradulina NOLA house sale too....

I don't know that I'd put money on their marriage lasting another 10 or 5 years, but I do know that Ted's posted his dislike of Garner for years, so he may be gunning for her. I If I were in Hollywood, I might feed him some false info to get him into trouble.

All Things Brangelina

Witness, too, our item about Brad and Angie selling their New Orleans home, a real-estate nugget gifted to us from Louisiana locals familiar with the French Quarter mansh. Some of these tipsters, by the by, still insist the Jolies are done with N.O., but the beautiful couple’s reppers say it ain’t so. These mouthpieces saw fit to respond to other publications about the story. Per usual, didn’t have the good graces to give us a comment when we originally asked, but hell, we're used to it.

Official word, then, has it that B, A and the gang still have their names on the lease, so residents can still point and stare at the celeb spot. Personally, we’re über pleased the Jolie-Pitts are staying put in their elegant, politically correct pad. Brad-babe’s always up to some do-gooding when he’s down in that area, and we so know this sexy couple must love Mardi Gras and all that spicy Cajun cooking. But a note to any tourists traveling in that neck of the woods: good luck spotting the movie stars and their army of tots in the area. They’ve got so much property purchased and leased all over the damn world, we bet not one of their huge pads will ever really feel lived in. Or is that the point?

^^ Teds reply is "it's gossip" I have to ask do we expect gossip to be carved in stone? I expect most of it to be made up.

Ted heads a really good charity "homeless mentally ill" and he has a good heart on a personal side bar, then he'll zing you in a open forum.

One thing Ted will not do is take on Tom Cruise, the mere mention of his name puts a yellow streak up Teds back. Cause Tom will sue his arse and he knows it so now he's on to plan B. He takes down Nicole Kidman when ever he can calling her Nicold a name he pimped off of the E board... why.. cause he can... she won't say jack unlike Tom.

OK off my diatrible now.

curlysem · June 26th, 2008, 06:46 PM

it could be true, but she still wears her wedding band.

Beeyotch · June 26th, 2008, 06:52 PM

I don't think either side has been "proven" right or wrong. Of course Jen's camp is going to deny everything up until it actually happens, whether it's true or not. Point is, we don't know. It's just that I don't find it hard to believe they're splitting, given their background (her co-star bed hopping, trading up spouses, his love of strippers, booze and gambling, stupid matches like JLo)
