It’s been almost two years since Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck announced to the world that they were headed for divorce.
Two years since they released a joint statement confirming they had made the “difficult decision” to go their separate ways.
Two years of ‘will they or won’t they’ as they continue to live together, praise each other in the press and go on family vacations.
Now, sources have revealed that the pair have put a stop to their split proceedings.
According to PEOPLE, the actors, both 44, have called off the divorce.
"She really wants to work things out with Ben. They are giving things another try," the source told the magazine.

While they aren't officially back together, the source said there is "always a chance of reconciliation".
"They love each other. They also really, really love their kids, and those kids love their parents," they said.
Both celebrities have been open and honest with the press on their marriage 'breakdown' and the love they still have for each other.
In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine last year, Garner named Affleck as the "love of her life".
"He's the most brilliant person in any room, the most charismatic, the most generous. He's just a complicated guy. I always say, 'When his sun shines on you, you feel it,'" she said.
"But when the sun is shining elsewhere, it's cold. He can cast quite a shadow."
In response to her comments, Affleck said his estranged wife was well within her rights to discuss their marital problems in the public domain.
"It’s fine. She’s allowed to talk about it," he told the New York Times.
"Jen’s great. She's a great person. We're on great terms. I just saw her this morning, so that's the reality that I live in."
It seems there is hope yet that a Hollywood love story can be the real deal.
