Ben Affleck And Jennifer Garner Divorce Update: Planning To Adopt? [VIDEO]
Are Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck adopting?
“Ben & Jen Surprise Adoption!” reads the cover of the latest issue of OK! Magazine, which suggests the couple will be adopting a "girl" after rekindling their romance and deciding to stay married.
“Now that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are 100 percent back together, they’ve got lots to celebrate — including their just-hatched plan to welcome a new baby to their family!” an insider told the magazine, according to a report by Gossip Cop on Wednesday. “They’ve fully recommitted to their marriage.”
“Now, in tribute to their newly rebuilt relationship, the source says Ben and Jen have decided to finally move forward on something Jen has long wanted to do: adopt!” the source continued. “They’ve been talking about it for years. Jen knows it’s the biggest commitment Ben could possibly make to become a father again [and] now it’s just a matter of being matched with the right baby.”
In response to the report, however, a source told Gossip Cop, “There is no truth to this."
Although Garner and Affleck may not be adopting, they are working together as parents.
“We do our best,” Affleck told Entertainment Tonight’s Lauren Zima during the Los Angeles premiere of The Accountant. “We try our best.... My areas of expertise with the kids [are] spotty at best. Not homework. I only play an accountant in the movie. In real life, I'm badly wanting.”
While Affleck doesn't necessarily thrive in the area of helping with homework, he confirmed that his kids are always close by -- even when he's working.
“[It’s] mostly stuff from my kids,” he said about what he keeps with him on set. “It's the only personal stuff I have -- the drawings and art. It's a good place to hang up the latest artwork to come out of school.”
