After having finished a round of treatment for alcohol addiction and returned home for outpatient care, Ben Affleck is now finalizing his divorce from Jennifer Garner.
A new report from People Magazine indicates that Garner and Affleck met at her house with lawyers and a private judge to finalize the details of their divorce, more than three years after they announced their separation.
This comes a day after Affleck addressed his recovery in a post on social
"Battling any addiction is a lifelong and difficult struggle. Because of that, one is never really in or out of treatment. It is a full-time commitment. I am fighting for myself and my family. So many people have reached out on social media and spoken about their own journeys with addiction. To those people, I want to say thank you. Your strength is inspiring and is supporting me in ways I didn't think was possible. It helps to know I am not alone. As I've had to remind myself, if you have a problem, getting help is a sign of courage, not weakness or failure.
"With acceptance and humility, I continue to avail myself with the help of so many people and I am grateful to all those who are there for me. I hope down the road, I can offer an example to others who are struggling."
