Jen & Ben’s Serious Sit-down

Jen & Ben’s Serious Sit-down

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner look unusually glum-looking during a serious sit-down conversation on the beach in Hawaii on Sunday.

As their pacifier-sucking daughter Violet, 19 months, played in the sand, the couple appeared to be having quite the serious conversation.

Their conversation did end with a sweet kiss before before Jen took off with their toddler, with Ben following behind.

sorry i meant that they most certainly DO look glum!

Jared really wants to write for celebrity baby blog. Maybe they’ll give him a job?

Violets only 18 months old. If she were 3 I’d say get rid of the pacifier. Lots of kids use a bottle at 18 months too.

They look normal to me. Ben is not going to leave her. She loves him too much and is his biggest fan. Men are always looking for women who make them feel good about themselves. Ben certainly has a woman who boosts his ego.

And Callie should write for Soap Opera Digest. I wonder if they’ll give her a job.
THey look perfectly happy to me. They are living alife– not living a life for the cameras. You just read into random pictures what you want it to be and you are certainly good at writing fiction Callie!

Maybe they just weren’t talking about anything funny. Neither of them look upset, just neutral. I don’t smile 24/7. People need to stop pretending they know what is going on in a celeb’s personal life based on photos they see from paparazi. I guarantee we all know 100% NOTHING about this family.

And they are working…

Jen has a political thriller coming out with Jamie Foxx and Jeremy Piven in September, and dramedy with Jason Batemen and Allison Janney a few months later. Ben’s directorial debut “Gone, Baby, Gone” is out in October.

LOL what’s the problem with the pacifer? almost all kids use it till 3 years old and ther’s no problem whatsoever.
Bunch of looser is what you are

I think they were probably just arguing about something which is normal. I’ve had many little arguments with my husband that would probably look just like that. They are probably just talking things out which is what you should do in a marriage.

Mike thanks

Someone who has common sense. Like Mike said they don’t look like their arguing, they don’t look glum, they just look neutral. Do all celebs have to grin 24/7 or throw their arms around each other for everyone not to make up fiction like “they’re breaking up!” GIve them a break!

Lol,some the people comments here make me laugh.They could be talking about anything .They’re looking at the ground So they could be looking at a damn bug.Really..I think people are reading to much in to it.Ben is happy he has a great family ,beautiful wife ,a movie that’s getting great buzz .What more can he want.

Leave them alone! Geez people lol. They are just talking. Who knows what about…..maybe a family emergency or maybe about how tired they are LOL. Who knows? No one does.

I don’t see an issue with the pacifier…she’s only 1 1/2.

As far as Ben and Jen..they’ve Ben hounded by photogs this whole trip. I’m sure their tired of it…look at how Jen is looking at the camera. Who knows what they are talking about, but like someone said, we aren’t all smiles all the time. Doesn’t mean there is an issue or they are on the rocks. I *think* they are happy…he gushes in interviews and she obviously loves being a mommy.

I think the kiss at the end was sweet…it almost looks like they are kissing V, but you can see his hand on Jen’s face and knee (the pink is the tie on Jen’s suit - to ehoever asked about violet).

I agree. They are just talking. I don’t think they are arguing or looking glum. Vacations can be stressful and tiring with a toddler and on top of that with other families. To me that is not as relaxing as just getting away with just your own close family. Group vacations are not relaxing.

Regardless to what they are talking about the real deal is that they walk away separately, not together.

They are a married couple and you would think they would walk away together. It seems as if they work things out separately also. They just never seem that united.

Who knows what’s going on with these too. I just feel bad that the paps shot this obviously private conversation.

They look like my husband and I do every morning having breakfast. They’re fine I’m sure, it’s interesting how everybody is focusing on the pictures where they supposedly look “glum” but not the picture where they are kissing. I would probably be more inclined to think something was wrong if one of them was crying or had their head in their hands. Remember they have been on vacation for a week, seeing each other 24/7, during their normal lives in LA they are separated atleast several hours by work. They are probably sick of each other.
On another note, is Ben wearing crocs? Talk about normal…..

Ben: “Aw, no matter what I do, everyone always likes Matt better than me.”
Jen: “Don’t worry. You always have me.”

I noticed the blue crocs too :)

Agree abut the kiss.

About the waling away separately…maybe she was taking Violet somewhere or he was meeting up with Matt. Who knows. That doesn’t mean anything…they don’t have to be tied at the hip.

People see what they want to see when they view these pictures.

But to those on this board like, lula29, who probably hopes and prays that these two get divorced, you are sad, I can almost see you jumping up and down for joy at the thought that something might be wrong. You must be a JLo fan or a Michael Vartan fan, which is it?

Nuh uh. J.Lo fans DO NOT want her to get back with Ben. Trust me. He divorcing Garner is not something we pray for. Boy can do whatever the hell he wants.

Colbert ROCKS! @ 06/25/2007 at 9:09 pm

I think they are down to earth and mesh well together.

To you,

Why would I hope and pray they get a divorce?

Who’s Vartan?

J.Lo wasn’t good with Ben Affleck either.

I can’t get over these celebrities putting pacifiers in these big childrens mouths.

O’cmon! She’s probably saying “Damn we can’t even have ONE day at the beach without these damn papparazzi”. Look at the way she’s looking at the photo taker in picture 3. She’s probably aggravated. Then he’s saying, “Can we just ignore them?” She’s saying, “I can’t, this bums me out. We were having such a good time” He’s saying, “You wanna leave?” She’s saying “yea, I think so.” *sigh* Gives him a kiss for being such a good hubby and starts the packing. That’s what I see in this photo series. ;)

Mysay,

I don’t see that at all. Ben Affleck is bummed about something and she’s talking to him about it. She notices the paps, doesn’t like it. She turns back to him a kisses him to cheer him up and then leaves to let him have some space to deal with it.

I don’t think whatever it is has to do with their relationship, but I just don’t find them that connected in general. I don’t want them to divorce, I’m just giving my observation.

Given the fact that most of communication is non-verbal, says that a good deal of you all are in serious trouble.

this is not a glum conversation, they are not pissed at potogs, they are having a serious conversation.

The tail tail sign is the picture where been is sitting alone after she leaves.

I would not be surprise if an announcement is forth coming.

interesting.

Brad and Jen they are not (i.e. fake vacation before announcing to workd they are splitting)…don’t make too much of this.

This conversation may have had nothing to do with their relationship…maybe he’s worreid about the release of his directoral debut, maybe he saw the pics where he’s excited all over the internet (kidding ;)).

Can someone not be left alone to think about something? It doesn’t mean they are breaking up.
