Just weeks after announcing his split from wife of 10 years Jennifer Garner, Ben Affleck is said to be “in a bad way”.
Amid rumours that he had a fling with his children’s nanny – a claim he has vehemently denied – a source has shed light on the strain of Affleck’s relationship woes.
Opening up to Grazia, the insider said: “Ben blames himself for the split and is in a bad way. He’s put on weight and seems to be only sleeping for a few hours a night.”
“It was always really important to provide his children with the kind of family life he didn’t have growing up, and he seems distraught that things haven’t worked out,” they added.
Matters have been made worse by reports that the nanny at the centre of romance rumours, Christine Ouzounian, is believed to be close to signing off on a TV series deal.
Ben and Jennifer, who have three children together – nine-year-old Violet, six-year-old Seraphina, and three-year-old Samuel – announced their split at the end of June.
