So it looks like they're not reconciling after all.
Just one month after it was reported that Jennifer Garner wanted to try and work on her marriage to Ben Affleck, the actress has officially filed for divorce.
TMZ noted that Garner's petition and Affleck’s response were filed together this week and without their attorneys present. The actors are seeking joint legal and physical custody of their three kids Violet, 11; Seraphina, 8 and 5-year-old Samuel.

The media outlet also reported that since there is no prenup in place anything they earned over the course of their marriage will be split equally between them.
The reason this news is a bit of a shocker is because of the supposed reconciliation the couple was said to have wanted, but a source now says that they have always planned on divorcing.
“They always planned to divorce despite what people said. If you look at their first statement it says divorce not separate. They just did it the way they wanted to and did what was best for their kids," the source revealed. "There was no catalyst, it was just time. Nothing has changed, they are and still will be putting their kids first.”
The former couple announced their split in June of 2015.
