She's there for him in the good times and the bad!
Ben Affleck reunited with Jen Garner and their son Samuel in Brentwood this morning, just one day after announcing that he has completed rehab for alcohol addiction, and the actor must be super grateful that his ex is giving him her full support as he recovers. These two have kept everyone guessing as to whether they will follow through with the divorce, and now that he's clean and sober, we wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they reconcile.
The Batman star went to rehab in 2001, before they were a couple. Alcoholism can wreak havoc on a marriage, so perhaps this is the A-list star's way of showing the mother of his children that he's serious about making their relationship work. The actress has been hesitant to end things, and this could very well be what she's been waiting for to give him another shot.
The Boston-born hunk sounds like he still loves her too, because he thanked her for her support during his time in treatment.
"I have completed treatment for alcohol addiction; something I've dealt with in the past and will continue to confront. I want to live life to the fullest and be the best father I can be. I want my kids to know there is no shame in getting help when you need it, and to be a source of strength for anyone out there who needs help but is afraid to take the first step," he wrote on his Facebook page.
"I'm lucky to have the love of my family and friends, including my co-parent, Jen, who has supported me and cared for our kids as I've done the work I set out to do. This was the first of many steps being taken towards a positive recovery," he added.
We hope they can work things out!
