Jennifer Garner Talks To 'In Touch' About Hubby Ben Affleck
Posted on 11. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Here’s why I love Jennifer Garner: she’s beautiful, she’s talented, but she is also one of the most down to earth, real personalities in Hollywood. She seems like a great, hands-on mom, a devoted wife, and doesn’t let the Hollywood machine get to her. She goes out without makeup and wearing ratty underwear one day, then all made up and looking radiant on the red carpet the next. Jennifer says the reason why her marriage to Ben Affleck works is because she accepted him – faults and all – from day one, and never tried to “fix” him.
Second-time new mom Jennifer Garner returns to the big screen in the new romantic comedy Ghosts of Girlfriends Past with Matthew McConaughey. But in real life, her leading man is Ben Affleck, her husband of almost four years and dad to daughters Violet, 3, and Seraphina, 3 months.
“Ben is pretty ideal as far as I’m concerned,” says Jennifer. “I don’t think you could do any better. I don’t think there’s a lovelier person.”
And it’s a good thing Ben is so perfect to Jennifer, considering what she learned from her mother.
My mom’s solid piece of advice to my sisters was, ‘Never marry a guy thinking you can change him,’” says Jennifer, 37. “Don’t get in there and think you can start to tinker. So, I’m not a fixer.”
Q: How is it having two little girls in your household?
I’m certainly not sleeping. Violet was a good sleeper, typically. But now that there is a new baby, she wakes up when the baby wakes up. She wants me, too, so there are times when they are both up all the time.
Q: What do you do about it?
I go from one to the other all the time.
Q: What is the most appealing thing about the opposite sex?
As far as I’m concerned, the sexiest thing about a man is when he changes diapers. Maybe except for defusing a tantrum!
