Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner announced they're divorcing on Tuesday, but RadarOnline.com has learned they're still working together as a team. According to an insider, the couple has made a secret pact to keep quiet about the real reason their marriage failed.
Affleck and Garner "made a pact that they are never going to talk to anyone about their divorce," the insider said. And though Garner spoke freely in recent months about the challenges of their marriage, the insider said, "They're done talking about it. Even in interviews."
However, some members of their A-list inner circle will get to hear more than the short statement the couple released Tuesday afternoon.
Said the source, "They're going to send out talking points to those closest to them about how in Hollywood, 10 years is a huge success, and their beautiful kids are a massive success."
"They are going to do everything they can to make sure their family is a success, even though their marriage is over," the source said.
As RadarOnline.com reported, the couple announced they are divorcing with a terse statement released Tuesday.
"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce," the couple told RadarOnline.com in a joint statement. "We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children, whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time."
"This will be our only comment on this private, family matter," they continued. "Thank you for your understanding."
