Jennifer Garner has broken her silence about her divorce from Ben Affleck and the nanny he was accused of sleeping with.
In the March issue of Vanity Fair, the 43-year-old actress revealed that Christine Ouzounian, 28, did not break up their 10-year marriage.
“We had been separated for months before I ever heard about the nanny,” said the Miracles From Heaven actress. “She had nothing to do with our decision to divorce. She was not a part of the equation. Bad judgement? Yes.”
When the nanny story broke in July, Ben has said the report was “garbage”.
The actress said the toughest part of the allegations was talking to her children about it.
“It’s not great for your kids for a nanny to disappear from their lives,” she said. “I have had to have conversations about the meaning of scandal.”
Jennifer and Ben, who have three children together (Violet, aged 10, Seraphina, aged seven, and Samuel, aged three), announced their split in June, just a month before talk of his involvement with the nanny, 28.
