NO. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are divorcing.

It’s official.

One of our favourite Hollywood couples, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, are getting a divorce after 10 years of marriage.

The pair recently marked their 10 year anniversary.

PEOPLE reports the A-listers confirmed the sad decision in a joint statement.

“After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce,” Garner and Affleck said.

“We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time. This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding.

Last year, Suddenly 30 star Garner told InStyle their relationship was no longer in the “courtship” phase — although she seemed okay with that at the time.

“You can’t expect to be courted all the time, and I don’t want to court him right now – I don’t have the energy,” she said.

“But we’re definitely in a very mindful place where we’re making an effort to be together, do things at the same time, and be loving.”

Some other couples we can’t believe didn’t make the distance (post continues after gallery):
