A source close to the couple said it was a decision Garner and Affleck made together: “There is always a chance of reconciliation. They love each other. They also really, really love their kids, and those kids love their parents.”

“They want to keep the family together,” the source close to the couple said. 

The source close to Garner said, “Ben is making a big effort to take care of himself. They are not back together, but there seems to be hope. Jen is hoping they can stay married. Ben doesn’t want a divorce either.”
