What in the Sam Hill! I go camping for five days with no cell/Internet for miles and I come home to find out Ben is even more a ridiculous cliche ass clown than I could have even thought?
Shame on that dumb nanny. She is not a nice person, and Ben is the biggest dumbfuck ever. Shame on his dumb ass too!
I hope his new puppy shits all over the place and chews up his Oscar.

He's an idiot, but as a 27 or 28 year old, I probably would have been flattered and dumb enough to do the same thing (I'm not proud of that).
She's made a dumb move, but it's totally understandable. He, on the other hand, is a true dumbass.

I really don't think I could have ever done that. I don't care how rich, famous or powerful the dude is, sleeping with him when she is the nanny of the kids? That is just gross behavior. And now, if she is the one tipping off paps, etc, she is really gross. I mean, she's almost 30. She knows better, she just doesn't want to do better. I'd maybe feel less judgy if she were ten years younger.
Who knows, maybe she thought this would be a break for her.
Still, he is the biggest asshole of the situation. He had taken the vows, not her.

No, I think she's a total famewhore. I assume she got into it for (a) bragging rights for fucking a celebrity and (b) the chance to parlay this into brief D-list fame like Tiger Wood's sidepiece. Remember her? I don't believe she thought it would be something real. There are some people who get meaning from their life from being near celebrities in some way.
I wonder how she got hired as a nanny in the first place. Most celeb nannies, you never hear about because being discreet is the most important part of the job. And I can't believe bven Affleck would so dumb as to sleep with her. But that does seem to be his pattern.
If you look at his past girlfriends, they're all put-together, ambitious, determined to have classy, respectable, A-list fame. If you look at the women he has sex with who aren't his girlfriends, it's strippers, women without jobs, random townies. It's pretty common. Lots of people divide the world into "women you fuck" and "women you marry", and most of them are miserable bastards who never have a long-lasting relationship. (Why I'm still not sure I believe the Blake Lively rumors. She's too ambitious to be an undemanding sidepiece).
And I can't believe he's either dumb enough, arrogant enough or self-destructive enough to fuck the nanny. I mean! He had to know it would get out. Or maybe he wants it to. Maybe he's tired of the "respectable family man" image and wants to be seen as a stud. Maybe he's going the Clooney/DiCaprio/Nicholson route and deciding that a playboy image doesn't get in the way of career success so why bother?

Some people (like Lainey) are speculating that Jen may have hired a hot nanny on purpose, knowing Ben would cheat and that it would make him look bad. For someone who is so savvy, that does seem naive.

The nanny came from a reputable firm. Or so I read. The truth is...Ben was the married one and he didn't have to screw his kids' nanny, no matter how young and attractive she is. Maybe...just maybe Jen thought he wouldn't do something with someone close to his kids, but nope...as usual she thinks better of him than I do. And she might have wanted someone young enough to keep up with 3 young, energetic kids and their dog (not Ben).

Lainey has a bizarre hate-on for Jennifer Garner. I don't believe that theory at all since, even if you assume Jennifer is so evil or petty she doesn't care if her kids get hurt, it doesn't benefit her at all. No one wants to be the cheated on, especially not in an industry where your entire worth is based on the idea that you're beautiful and sexy. Now the narrative is Jen wasn't hot enough for him. That's the worst thing for a woman who mainly plays love interests and is rapidly reaching what Hollywood calls the "unfuckable old crone" years.
There's no positive in it for her. If anything, this might piss him off enough to be stingy with the spousal support. That's why I think the only reason we're hearing about it is the nanny wants to be the next Courtney Stodden.

Does the nanny come from a privileged background? In those pap shots, she was wearing Chanel espadrilles and is toting a Prada handbag. Either that or she's an exceptionally well-paid nanny ... or sleeping with the boss is lucrative!

Exactly. Even if that was JG's plot, unless she put a gun to his head and made him donk the nanny, it's not her fault, it's Ben's fault. It's really kinda gross to try to put the blame on the lady when her husband cheats. And yes, "my hubby left me for someone younger and hotter" is not the narrative a Hollywood actress wants to put out there. The nanny is clearly eating this up. Ben is stupid.

The "she hired a hot nanny" argument irritates me so much. To begin with, it mitigates the blame. This was HIS doing. Further, you either have a husband who will screw the nanny or you don't. I live in LA. I have young actress-types who babysit. My husband makes polite small talk and leaves the room to go about his business. Never once does it occur to him to, you know, fuck them. Many of these young women are cool, educated, fun women to have around and be with your kids if you cannot. Nothing was wrong with Jen's hiring practices. Everything is wrong with what happened after that.
