Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner engaged

Don’t think we’ll be seeing kids from them anytime soon, but hey, we have an engaged category! :)

Baffleck People.com reports that Ben Affleck, 32, presented Jennifer Garner with a 4+ carat Harry Winston diamond over her 33rd weekend. Jennifer was previously married to actor Scott Foley, while Ben was famously engaged to Jennifer Lopez and her 6+ carat pink diamond last year.

i really hope that it lasts & that they are happy.. they both deserve a great marriage!

- B on

eh. never like them together, but boy, that ben REALLY wants to get married.

- stephanie on

Lol, if I were Jennifer Garner, I’d be like, “You have J. Lo a 6 ct ring. Am I not worth that?!”

- Jennifer on

thanks for pointing that out, jennifer :D watch out or ben will propose to you next :D i wonder if it’s coloured. i really love j.lo’s pink ring, when they broke up i had hoped she would sell it on ebay for fifty cents out of bitterness or something.

- stephanie on

I don’t think that ring would ever go for just 50 cents. Too many people want to get their hands on it! LOL.

Frankly, I’m glad he didn’t give Jennifer Garner the same size ring as Jennifer Lopez. Yes, it is smaller, but she doesn’t strike me as a person that would want to wear such a large ring. I think it shows that he knows her well.

Anyways, I hope this works out for them, I like Jennifer Garner. She seems sweet.

- Jen on

I wish them the best. I think they are the cutest couple, and they seem like they go together much better than J. Lo and Ben.

- Stacey on

I really hope it works our for the both of them.

- Annie on

I think they make a very cute couple and seem much more in love and connected than J. Lo. I also wouldn’t want the same ring, or anything close to it. I can’t imagine wearing a ring that size, be it 4 or 6! I wish them well!

- Rachael on

They are cute together lets hope they have finally found what they are looking for!

- Michelle Anne on

Just shows you the difference between the two Jens. I love Jen Garner, she seems down to earth and much better suited to Ben than Lopez was. I heard reports that the ring he gave Garner cost $500K. Not too shabby. I wonder what Lopez thought when she heard the news.

- Ally on

I thought I read on IMDB that they were not engaged?

- Carolyn on

I love Jennifer Garner and am very happy for her and Ben. I didn’t used to like Ben but he is growing on me since he’s been with Jen. They seem to really be in love. I’d love to see what their kids look like! But that probably won’t happen until ALias is over.

- julia thorne on

Gaffleck?!

- MollieBee on

Wouldn’t it be terrible if she read that her bf bought an engagement ring but hasn’t popped the question yet?

It’s no biggy that J.Lo’s ring was bigger… Garner is a more modest person whereas it’s common knowledge that Jennifer Lopez is extremely materialistic… I personally think a massive diamond is kind of tacky.

*I personally think a massive diamond is kind of tacky.*

Me too – i gave mine back and demanded a paper one.

- havana on

It’s so weird how people can enter such commitments so fast after breaking off other ones. I can’t keep up! Well, I hope they are happy. That’s all the matters.

*As far as who has the bigger ring….We’re talking 4 & 6 carats here people! Need I say more?

- HE on

Yay :)

- Annie on

I totally like Jen Garner better, J.Lo seemed kinda of like a gol-digging princess to me. Anyone remember the BENTLEY he bought her???!!!

Jennifer Garner seems so sweet and…normal! :D

- coco20 on

I can’t explain how extatic I am…right after Daredevil I hoped they would get together…(if you watch the making of the movie they are sooo cute together). I think she’s sooo sweet and fun to be around…so congrats to the both of them!!!

- Kelly on

I think these 2 will actually make it. I think this Jennifer got a msaller ring than the old Jennifer cause she is not as flashy. Some women prefer something more classic and simple.

- Kori on

I heard JLo encouraged Ben to propose to Jennifer G. That she was happy for the 2 of them. If her marriage to Marc is sincere then she SHOULD be nothing but happy for her ex, or at least not give a crap.
And uh…..as for larger diamonds being tacky…….girl, I’ll take them if you don’t want them! I don’t think there is such a think as too big, or too many diamonds. I love my wedding rings, my husband did an awesome job, an honeslty If I had a 6 carat ring I would be afraid to wear it in public and scared i would get mugged.

- Kori on

I don’t know why, but I can’t really see them with children.

- \\*amanda on

I honestly don’t think it was his doing for the break up of him and jen the first,I htink jen secretly always had it for marc so when his marriage hit the rocks she put on her breaks.
I hope the benifer the sequel will be the one both are looking for I wish them well.
