Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner

Ben Affleck admitted he would "probably still be drinking" if he was still married to Jennifer Garner.

The 49-year-old actor - who has three young kids with the 50-year-old actress - admitted that had the pair not divorced in 2018, he would feel "trapped".

Speaking in 2021, he said: "We probably would’ve ended up at each other’s throats. I'd probably still be drinking. It's part of why I started drinking … because I was trapped. I was like 'I can't leave 'cause of my kids, but I'm not happy, what do I do?' What I did was drink a bottle of scotch and fall asleep on the couch, which turned out not to be the solution."
