Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner tried everything they could to prevent their 10-year marriage ending in divorce.
After splitting in 2015 it took the pair until three months ago to finally file the papers.
The pair were spotted attending a church service together in Los Angeles back in May with their three children, Violet, Seraphina and Samuel, after Ben admitted he had secretly checked himself into rehab.
Last week, the ‘Justice League’ star put all the rekindling rumours to bed when he went public with his new love SNL producer Lindsay Shookus, 37.
According to court documents, Ben and Jennifer filed for joint legal and physical custody of their children.
