Facing the real challenge, not the rumors
Jennifer explained that the most difficult part of Jennifer and Ben divorce was not the news as reported by the tabloids, but the personal loss of family and their relationship. She said that losing the dynamics of a close relationship and the familiar unity really hurt her emotionally.
By choosing not to focus on herself or her children, Garner protected her mental space and, at the same time, focused on what was most important: her family and her close relationships. She emphasized: “Focusing on me or on any other person does not benefit me.”
Coparentality with respect
Despite the public scrutiny associated with celebrity separations, Jennifer and Ben built a calm and respectful co-parental partnership, even after the divorce was finalized. They have three children — Violet, Seraphina and Samuel — and both have stated that their priority is to create a stable and healthy environment for them.
