Are Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck putting their divorce on hold?

Los Angeles - Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have reportedly put their divorce on hold.

The couple - who have kids Violet, 10, Seraphina, seven, and four-year-old Samuel - announced last year they were going their separate ways after 10 years of marriage, but proceedings have slowed up somewhat.

A source close to the brunette beauty said: "Jen mentioned that the divorce was going through very soon, and then a few weeks ago, things changed.

"It does not seem to be moving in that direction.

"Jen seems to still be in love with Ben but doesn't allow her mind to go there. She just focuses on the kids."

The couple are still living together with their children in their five-bedroom mansion, and the 43-year-old actor is said to be keen to get their marriage back on track.

Another insider added to Us Weekly magazine: "If it was up to Ben, they would be together. He feels like he can't live without Jen."

However, insiders close to the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice star, who sleeps in the guest room of their $17.5m house, insists divorce is still on the agenda.

They said: "They were never in a rush to file. This was always the plan."

This comes a week after it was reported that Ben and Jennifer, 44, were "still figuring things out".

A source said: "They're still figuring things out. Ben still doesn't want the divorce and he might actually get his way.

"She had the best time in Europe with Ben and the kids. She seemed much happier when she returned to L.A. Jen went from being very adamant that a divorce would happen to instead avoiding any divorce talk."
