Ben Affleck: things are great between me and Jennifer Garner

Ben Affleck has added his own denial to the rumours that his marriage to Jennifer Garner is in trouble.

Last week, rumours flared that the couple were close to separating after three years of marriage but Jennifer’s spokesperson quickly labelled them “100% completely fabricated”.

Speaking in an interview for Access Hollywood on Friday, Ben added that “things are pretty great” for him and his wife, and their two year old daughter Violet.

He said: “We’re very happy. Things couldn’t be better. We’re kind of taking it easy and just kind of enjoying a little downtime at home.”

“I’m at a point now where even… vacation sort of feels a little bit like work. I’d rather just kind of chill and take it easy [at home].”
