It's official, alas. Hollywood marriages don't last—at least if you were counting on Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck's marriage as a benchmark, as many of us were. And to make this even more heartbreaking, Ben and Jen went public with their divorce just one day ofter their 10-year anniversary.

"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce," they announced in a joint statement. "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."
