Break Ups Ben Affleck’s grateful face Ben Affleck spent the weekend in Atlanta with his kids and Jennifer Garner. Here they are, seen together as a family for the first time since we met Christine Ouzounian, the former nanny. He’s even wearing a smile on his face. To me it looks like a grateful smile.

Weddings Jennifer & Justin: honeymoon and wedding details As you know, the news that Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux got married was yesterday’s major headline, conveniently just as the new trailer for Brange’s By The Sea was released.
