| Posted by: schmiggens | | She certainly looks pregnant, but as yet, no official word from either of their "people" but E! Online has the following story, they claim to have confirmed the story, but who knows?:

Jennifer Garner's Baby on Board
Jennifer Garner's next alias: mommy. The Alias star is expecting her first child, E! Online and E! News have confirmed.
Multiple sources close to Garner and beau Ben Affleck say the actress is three months along. News of the pregnancy comes just two weeks after several published reports claimed the couple were engaged.
According to E! Online columnist Ted Casablanca, Affleck flew Garner's kin from West Virginia to California in April for his leading lady's 33rd birthday party. The question subsequently was popped in private, Casablanca reported.
At the time Affleck's rep, Ken Sunshine, described said reports as "garbage." On Saturday, Sunshine declined to address the baby news, saying "I never comment on [Affleck's] personal life." There was no immediate word from Garner's camp on the pregnancy or whether a ceremony was in the offing.
Despite having a baby on board, Garner is still keeping to her schedule this summer. Her next big-screen project, Columbia Pictures' romantic drama Catch and Release, begins its two-month shoot next week in Vancouver. The film costars Kevin Smith, Juliette Lewis and Timothy Olyphant and marks the directorial debut of Erin Brockovich screenwriter Susannah Grant.
But Garner's November due date could prove tricky for the Alias brain trust. While ABC's spy thriller is wrapped for the season (the finale airs May 25), the show has been picked up for the fall and is slated to resume production in July. Now, producers must decide how to deal with Garner's pregnancy, either by incorporating it into the show (remember, Sydney's eggs were harvested last season) or just try to hide it. Then again, considering the show's sky-high slinky outfit-to-episode ratio, a burgeoning belly would be hard to conceal. Further complicating matters, Garner performs most of her own stunts.
Affleck, 32, and Garner costarred on screen together before coupling off--he was Daredevil to her Elektra in 2003's Daredevil. (His cameo in this year's Elektra wound up on the cutting-room floor, but is preserved for posterity on the DVD.)
They finally went public with their much-rumored romance last fall at the World Series, when she was spotted snuggling Red Sox diehard Affleck at Boston's Fenway Park. Their pairing was alternately dubbed Garfleck and Bennifer II.
But unlike the original Bennifer tandem of Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, the all-new edition prefers to fly under the radar. The World Series appearance aside, Garner and Affleck have generally managed to eschew being photographed together at red-carpet events.
Garner was previously married to Felicity costar Scott Foley. They split in 2003, and their divorce was finalized in March 2004. They didn't have any children.
The never-wed Affleck previously was engaged to Lopez. That relationship ended with the scuttling of their September 2003 nuptials. |

| Posted by: schmiggens | | She doesn't look pregnant there at all. I don't think so.
She has said a gazzilion times that she would never get pregnant while she was doing Alias. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: schmiggens | | That sure looks more like a preggers belly than some of the other photos. The fact that she's wearing baggy clothes won't help the rumours go away either.
Isn't it a bit odd for her to get pregnant in the middle of filming a movie though? What happens to the movie now that she's showing? Do they have to wait until after she's given birth to finish filming? Do they get body doubles in? Do they make her wear a big coat in every scene?
She's also still filming for Alias, so will they have to change all the schedules for that too? | | Reply To this Message

JJ Abrams, the creator of the TV show "Alias," has inadvertently let it slip that his star Jennifer Garner is indeed pregnant.
The actress and her fiance Ben Affleck have been keeping quiet about the baby news, but Abrams is happy to talk about what he'll be doing to make sure pregnant Garner is as comfortable as possible on the set of his hit drama.
Speaking at the Los Angeles premiere of "Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith" on Thursday night, he said, "It'll affect it (the show) ... I'm sure that kickboxing is probably out."

| Posted by: schmiggens | | The engagement is unconfirmed, officially so is the pregnancy though.
I think Ben learnt his lesson after dating J-Lo and he's trying to keep as much of his life out of news now. | | Reply To this Message

"Daredevil" co-stars Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are reportedly expecting a girl -- and they're considering naming her Violet.
Garner, who is due to give birth to her first child with husband Affleck later this year, is said to have left a telling sign of the baby's sex while filming her movie "Catch & Release" in Vancouver, Canada.
A source explains, "She has a baby name book in her trailer. I don't know if they just like how (the name Violet) sounds or if it is a family name."

| Posted by: schmiggens | | IT'S A GIRL!!!!!
Just last Monday, we told you how Jennifer Garner let it slip on Access Hollywood that she is having a girl. Well, last night on The Tonight Show she did the same thing - TWICE! Girl, it ain't no secret no more.
"So what do we have, a boy or a girl?," asked Jay at first. "We'll have either one or the other," joked Garner. She spoke about getting things for the nursery and whether the baby would care.
"Apparently you need a crib," she said, but "sh[e]...this kid won't know what's going on." It was quite subtle.
Then, later on in the show, she was talking about being on the telephone for the Katrina fundraiser and feeling very fat and huge in front of the TV cameras. She said, "I just felt like I was getting bigger and bigger and she [the baby] was.." and then she stops, her eyes go wide and she quickly covers her mouth and everyone cheers! | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: Sandy June | | Here we go. I found an article.
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Representatives for both actors confirmed the birth to The Associated Press. Their publicists say the child was born at 6:26pm Thursday.
Mother, father and baby are said to be doing great. It's the first child for Garner and Affleck, who were married in June. The confirmation came after several media outlets reported the baby's birth, hours before the time of birth supplied by the publicists.
Us Weekly reported the baby was born sometime prior to 2pm Eastern, and E! News said the couple had named her Violet. Affleck co-starred with Garner in 2003's "Daredevil," her first big movie role, but they didn't begin dating until last year. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: Sandy June | | I like the name Violet. It is an old fashioned name. I had great aunts named Violet, Ruby and Jewel. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: schmiggens | | OMG! A celebrity couple that used a normal name for their child. Who would've thought? I didn't think celebs knew how to do that anymore.
Is is Violet Garner or Violet Affleck? Or Violet Garner-Affleck? | | Reply To this Message

Ben & Jen's Baby Violet Settles In Thursday Dec 08, 2005 3:00pm EST

Not long after Violet Anne Affleck came into the world on Dec. 1, pals of her famous father were making sure she got his religion: baseball, that is.
More on this story
Ben & Jen: It's a Girl!
"We're going to raise this baby right," Marc McGovern, one of Ben Affleck's oldest buddies from his hometown of Cambridge, Mass., tells PEOPLE. "So she's definitely going to be getting a lot of baby Red Sox gear in the mail from me."
She may have been born in L.A. – a continent away from Fenway Park or the hills of her mom's home state of West Virginia – but the firstborn child of Affleck and Jennifer Garner, who weighed in at 6 lbs. 14 oz., is destined to trace her roots back East.
Meanwhile, her parents are already at home in their new roles as Mom and Dad. "Ben has been changing diapers. He's an amazing father," says a friend of the couple's. "I don't know if I've ever seen anybody happier. He's already wrapped around Violet's little finger."
Violet, whom their pal describes as "beautiful – you instantly fall in love with her," arrived just a week after Garner and Affleck, both 33, shared Thanksgiving at their Brentwood home with her parents. After a complication-free delivery at an L.A. hospital, Violet (a Garner family name) was born at 3:26 p.m. Pacific time. The couple, who wed in June in the Turks and Caicos islands after dating for a year, brought her home three days later.
As for Garner, already known as something of a den mother on the Alias set, where she often brings homemade brownies, "she's an amazing mom," says the friend. Needless to say, both are overjoyed. "You took two of the best people, who have the most love and affection for each other, and just when you think the ultimate is the two of them finding each other, this little girl came into their lives." | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: fuscia | | but that is not that uncommon for people to marry someone who looks like them is it? 
all right, I will fess up. I look like I could be Ron's sister. If I were taller and skinnier, no one would guess that I am his wife. They would guess sister.
Violet is a cool name. | | Reply To this Message
