Ben Affleck Praises 'Wonderful' Coparenting Relationship With Jennifer Garner

Ben Affleck says it's most important to him that he and his kids know the truth when it comes to the headlines written about their family

“We used to have a thing, my ex-wife and I, when they would see something on a supermarket stand, we would say, well, ‘You know this isn’t always true because if it were, you would have 15 brothers or sisters or whatever the number of stories is where they said that your mom was pregnant,’” Affleck would explain to his kids. “And I’m really lucky that I have a really good coparent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the kids’ mom, who’s wonderful and great and we work together well,” Affleck continued. “It’s more of a headache than anything else and there certainly are worse things,” he admitted before saying that while he has “yet to figure out why” he’s often the topic of those headlines, Affleck adds that he thinks it’s because “I don’t present in a very careful way.”
