During a recent tell-all interview, Hollywood actor Jennifer Garner shared some lesser-known facts about her highly publicised split from former husband Ben Affleck, reported Indian Express. The actor reportedly addressed Affleck’s rumoured affair with their 28-year-old nanny Christine Ouzounian.

The Gone Girl actor, however, has maintained his composure, saying that he is alright with Garner’s honest approach. “It’s fine,” he said, “She’s allowed to talk about it. She felt like she wanted to discuss it, get it out there and over with, so she could say, ‘Look, I already talked about it — I don’t want to do it again’.”

In the interview, Garner deemed Affleck the love of her life and highlighted the nanny incident as “bad judgment” on her ex-husband’s part. Affleck refused to comment on his family or details of the divorce but was all praises for Garner. “Jen’s great. She’s a great person and we’re on great terms. I just saw her this morning, so that’s the reality that I live in,” said the Good Will Hunting actor.
