Ben Affleck Dismisses Divorce Rumors

Ben Affleck says "things couldn't be better" between him and wife Jennifer Garner.

The 'Pearl Harbor' actor - who has a two-year-old daughter Violet with Jennifer - insists rumors the relationship is in trouble are completely untrue.

He said: "My home life is pretty great. We're very happy. Things couldn't be better. We're kind of taking it easy and just kind of enjoying a little downtime at home."

Ben and Jennifer - who celebrated their third wedding anniversary yesterday - went out for dinner with Ben's 'Good Will Hunting' co-writer Matt Damon and his wife Luciana Barroso at Nobu in Malibu, California, on Saturday.

An onlooker said: "Ben and Matt were entertaining the girls with stories, and they were all laughing a lot. The group made a toast to Ben and Jennifer's anniversary when dessert came. They were all in a great mood, and Jennifer and Ben left Nobu hand in hand."

Meanwhile, Ben recently revealed his trip to the Congo - to present a report for TV show 'Nightline' about the state of the war-torn country - affected him deeply.

He said: "It's definitely changed me. It's definitely been a part of - I guess a growing sense that I have a responsibility to do something with my life that's other than just serving mileage in some way."

"You have a responsibility to your kid and also a responsibility to the world around you, so all that is part of the motivation for doing all this stuff."
