The Many Exes of Hollywood Actor Ben Affleck

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s relationship began in 2004 after they worked together on the films Pearl Harbor and Daredevil—initially friends, their bond deepened, leading to romance after Affleck’s split from Jennifer Lopez. They were first spotted together publicly in mid-2004, and their relationship quickly grew serious.

In June 2005, they married in a private ceremony in Turks and Caicos, shortly before welcoming their first child, Violet, later that year. Their early years together were marked by mutual support, shared values, and a focus on building a family away from the Hollywood spotlight.
