Bad news, everyone: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are calling it quits.

The two actors are said to be getting a divorce after 10 years of marriage.

The couple has three young children, two daughters and one son, all of whom are under the age of 10. Surely, this is a major blow to their family and friends.

The couple issued a joint statement that reads,

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.

Their relationship was said to be on the rocks after reports of Affleck's rampant gambling and Garner's desire to do more acting.

We will keep you posted as more comes to light.
