Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have made their divorce eight months ago but are still talking about it until now in the heights of the actor's upcoming movie, Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice and the actress', Miracles from Heaven.

This made sources look at them with a questioning eye on the truthfulness of what they said at the same time, considering it might be all part of movie promotion. It is said that the PR teams for both Jen and Ben has set up guidelines to keep the public interest high and the ball rolling. One way is to say yes for an interview with a major outlet where one has to reveal [almost] anything like what Jennifer did to Vanity Fair.

It can be remembered that Garner, at that time, did not spill details but only talk about vague statements like "When his sun shines on you, you feel it.' But when the sun is shining elsewhere, it's cold. He can cast quite a shadow."

This is said to have propelled more interest and thus the public will ask more. Their being civil and happy in co-parenting with kids has also caught media attention. But then again, the two would not reveal more specific details like the actress' denying Ben's affairs with their nanny Christine Ouzounian. And of course, A-list ex-couple only attends celebrity-friendly shows like Ellen Degeneres or The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon who have been known for asking hardball questions.

In the Wednesday episode of the Today show, the 43-year old actress talks about how she and her family cope with post-divorce blues and said, "People have been so kind to my whole family, and we really do appreciate it. But, you know what, we're doing really well."

TV host Savannah Guthrie may have tried to get into the more emotional part when she quipped saying situation is not easy to 'go through something like that in the public eye.'

And this is how Jennifer Garner answered the comment "You know what? It's not easy to go through it, period. I have found going through it in the public eye, it's just another facet of it. For anyone when your life shifts in any way, it's tricky enough, but I have found people to be so warm and loving that it hasn't been nearly as bad as you might imagine.
