This Woman Was the Nanny of a Great Actor’s Kids – Star's Loyal Wife Divorced Him After Their Affair

• When rumors about this actor's affair with their nanny surfaced, he and his actress wife were already separated.
• The actress later revealed that the scandal affected her children.
• The actor accused of cheating has since remarried and is a present father.

These actors are two of the most talented celebrities who have enjoyed stellar careers in the movie industry. They have featured together in various productions. However, their relationship goes beyond sharing a movie set.

The Hollywood icons were once married! Their marriage lasted ten years and yielded three children. While married, the former couple were head over heels in love.

During interviews, they often serenaded one another with kind words and expected to stay married forever. However, a cheating scandal put a rift between the duo, and they called it quits. Here are facts about the ex-couples union and their children.

The pair first met on the set of the 2000 film "Pearl Harbor" but did not become a couple until a few years later due to being in different relationships. The actress was married to Scott Foley, whereas her future husband was engaged to a musician he later rekindled a relationship with.

In 2003, the actress filed for divorce from Foley, citing irreconcilable differences. A year later, the "Gone Girl" actor called off his engagement and, months later, pursued a relationship with Foley's ex. The couple clarified that they were in love and appeared in public several times.

In 2005, the actor proposed to his new girlfriend, and they tied the knot. The pair publicly voiced their love and appreciation for each other in the following years. The mother-of-three, children she had with her new husband, once called him the love of her life.

She also noted that although he was complicated, he was the most charismatic, generous, and brilliant person in the room. The former lovebirds would visit each other on set and publicly show affection for years.

In 2011, the star told a publication that she and the actor knew their achievements would be impossible without mutual assistance. Similarly, the father of three would praise his ex-wife in several interviews and stages, crediting her as his strength, along with their children, until something changed their lives for good.

However, in 2015, everything changed when their nanny entered the picture. It was reported that she's the one who allegedly tipped off the media so she could stage a sighting of her and the actor together.

Not long after, the famous couple sent shock waves worldwide when they publicly announced they were getting divorced! The surprising news became public a day after their tenth wedding anniversary.

The mother of three claimed that they had already been separated months before the nanny issue. However, many believed that the actor's alleged affair was the cause of the divorce. The former couple's nanny went on to find fame.

After the infidelity rumors, the former couple's nanny quickly became infamous for being caught in a scandal with high-profile celebrities. While some people in her situation would step back from all the cameras, she did quite the opposite!

Once the story began to die, she reportedly started publishing new photos and exposed herself to the media. According to a source, the former couple's nanny hoped to end up with the actor and appeared unbothered about everything. She dined at a well-known restaurant, usually flocked by paparazzi, and sat at a table outside with an eyewitness saying:

"She was laughing very loudly and kept flicking her hair while she gossiped with her friends..."

The source also noted how the former nanny "would stop talking so she could check her reflection in the outside window." She even took the time to take selfies! The eyewitness further stated:

"In between the picture-taking and laughing, she would toast her wine glass."

After being the center of a scandal, finding a job as a nanny for Christine Ouzuonian proved difficult for her. Sadly, the famous couple were not the only ones who suffered from the cheating rumors. While the famous couple's marriage may have ended due to the cheating scandal, the actress revealed that the scandal affected their children's lives.

She explained that their children had to deal with the sudden disappearance of their nanny, which was not a great experience. Foley's ex said she had to have conversations with their children about the meaning of "scandal."

The star temporarily moved into her oldest child's room to cope with the mental stress, and the pair were happy to have each other. On the other hand, her children's father sought to become a better man as he struggled with alcohol abuse, and he went for treatments, often checking into rehabilitation centers.

The actor's battle with liquor had its ups and downs, including a relapse caught on camera. However, he was determined to overcome his addiction and become a better father to his children.

Although the "Batman" actor has made many mistakes and regrets many of his actions, he still considers his separation from the mother of his children as his biggest regret. After finalizing their divorce in 2018, he said he still felt guilty, adding:

"The biggest regret of my life is this divorce."

The main thing the former lovers had to focus on throughout was the well-being of their children. The pair agreed to continue raising their children together. They have since put their differences aside and become friends despite their history.

The actress supported her second ex-husband in his battle with alcoholism, and they co-parent their children peacefully. He believes it is essential for a child to be raised by both parents.

Reports even state that he allegedly mentioned that being a good father was the most important thing. Not spending enough time with his father while growing up prompted his decision to be there for his children.

The Hollywood icon loves spending time with his children, especially during Christmas. He once relayed that watching his children experience the hope that Santa Claus would bring them presents was beautiful.

Ben Affleck is a wonderful father with the support and admiration of his previous wife and the respect of his current wife, Jennifer Lopez. The actor's musician wife once said this about him:

"I couldn't have more respect for Ben as a father, a co-parent, and a person."

It is quite commendable to see that Affleck did not allow his past mistakes to affect his love life, friendships, and relationships with his children, Violet, Samuel, and Seraphina. Luckily, Lopez has made a great effort to be a good stepmother to her husband's children.

On July 4, 2023, Lopez showed how much she is bonding with Affleck's children by attending an event with his daughter, Violet. The newly married couple took the then 17-year-old to Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin's White Party.

Rubin shared several images of the occasion on Instagram, with the third carousel photo showing the trio together. In July 2023, Lopez bonded with Violet by taking her on a lunch date at The Ivy in Los Angeles.

Not long before, in May 2023, the singer joined her husband and their blended family to see Seraphina's school play in Los Angeles. In the past, Emme — Lopez's twin child — and Seraphina bonded while walking Los Angeles's streets, creating a close friendship.

The songstress was also on hand in June 2022, when Affleck took his son, Samuel, then 10, to a luxury car rental dealership in Beverly Hills. The actor allowed his son to get into the driver's seat of a Lamborghini before the boy accidentally reversed the car into a parked BMW.

In September 2023, Lopez came along for the ride when her husband took Samuel, then 11, to a Santa Monica, California, school. A few months before, in April, the duo, who were rocking it as co-parents, were seen leaving Samuel and Emme's twin brother Max's school recital.

During May 2023's "Live With Kelly and Mark" interview, Affleck's wife confessed that she almost had five teenagers in her household! The star hilariously admits that having teenagers is "tough" and "challenging," with the children going through a stage where they don't want you in their rooms!

At the beginning of 2023, Lopez revealed that hers and Affleck's children had moved in together. She said the transition had been emotional, with the icing being that all her dreams had come true, with the year being fantastic since her children were born.

Affleck's wife was credited for making his relationship with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner., better. A source close to Lopez and her husband claims there's no ill will between the couple and Garner, with the singer supporting the former lovers "happy co-parenting" stage.

Instead, the insider alleged that the musician was responsible for the former partners' finding peace with each other. Affleck is healthy, and his past drama and emotions from divorcing Garner are allegedly "long gone," with them focusing on making things work.

Lopez is reportedly "friendly" with her stepchildren's mother, and their children love one another. So far, things are going well, and the source predicted they would remain the same.
