Los Angeles, Nov 9: Hollywood actress Jennifer Garner has recalled an "incredible" period in her marriage to ex-husband Ben Affleck, sharing memories of a six-week family trip to Europe when their children were young.

The former couple, who finalised their divorce in 2018, travelled to London while Affleck was shooting a superhero film in the UK. Garner took their children out of school for six weeks, using the opportunity to explore several European destinations, including Paris and Venice.

Appearing on the 'Happy Hour' podcast, Garner recalled the memorable holiday and said, “When my kids were really little, I went to Paris. Ben was shooting some Batman-ish movie in London and we went for 6 weeks. I took them out of school. It was the last time I really took kids out of school, but it was wonderful. It was incredible. It was so fun. And part of that is that we bopped around. We went to Venice, we went to Paris”.

Garner also revealed that podcast host Ina Garten had suggested that she explore Paris by boat.

Recalling the experience, the actress said she had followed the suggestion during subsequent visits as well. She added that photographs from the trip captured the smiles on her children's faces and described the holiday as a wonderful adventure.

It comes after Affleck recently praised Garner's parenting skills, describing her as a "spectacular" mother.

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck married in a private ceremony in Turks and Caicos on June 29, 2005, after falling in love while working together on the film 'Daredevil'.

The couple have three children — Violet, Seraphina and Samuel. Once regarded as one of Hollywood's most prominent couples, they announced their separation on June 30, 2015, a day after celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary.

They jointly filed for divorce in 2017, and it was finalised in October 2018.

Despite their separation, Garner and Affleck have maintained an amicable relationship and continue to co-parent their three children.
