Ben Affleck compared paying taxes to having an ex-wife. While appearing on SiriusXM's 'The Howard Stern Show' Jan. 12, the actor joked about the financial wake up call he and best friend Matt Damon experienced after they sold the screenplay for their hit film 'Good Will Hunting.' The 53-year-old, who was married to Jennifer Garner from 2005 to 2018 and Jennifer Lopez from 2022 to 2025, said, "Well, it turns out, Howard, you have to pay these things called taxes, which I was like, ‘So, who gets half again? Explain this to me.’ It was like having an ex-wife right away – you just divide, divide, divide and that joke is in no way meant to reflect on anyone.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1427301/ben-affleck-matt-damon-on-good-will-hunting-taxes #enews #benaffleck #goodwillhunting About: The E!
