Just days ago a source told Woman’s Day:

"Ben has had the hots for Margot ever since he saw her in The Wolf Of Wall Street."

However those rumours have been shot down by sources close to the 42-year-old actor, slamming the claims that 25-year-old Margot had caught Ben’s eye on the set of their new film as ’simply not true'.

Ben and Jennifer Garner, who are parents to Violet 9, Seraphina, 6, and 3-year-old Samuel, announced their divorce just a day after their 10 year anniversary.

A joint statement read:

'After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce.

'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.'

Following the announcement the former couple took their children to the Bahamas.

Meanwhile Margot has been spotted spending quality time with her British assistant director boyfriend Tom Ackerley.
