Jennifer Garner is talking about her body after giving birth to three children and what it’s like to have to avoid pregnancy rumors in her 40s.
The former student of “13 Going on 30” shares son Samuel, 9, and daughters Violet, 15, and Seraphina, 12, with her ex-husband Ben Affleck. In a recent appearance on the Happy Mum podcast, Happy Baby, Garner discussed how her body transformed after pregnancy and why she will never be one of those mothers whose bodies are able to “recover”.
“There are some incredible women whose bodies simply, no matter how many babies they have, they go back to that narrow, stomachless hip,” she said through People magazine. “It’s incredible. I have so many girlfriends with that physique and I am very happy for them. I am not one of them. This is not my show.”
Garner, 48, noted that she still works “very hard” at the gym.

“I can be in shape and I will still look like a woman who has had three babies, and I always will,” she said.
The mother of three, 48, also mentioned a previous appearance she made on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” in 2014, in which she declared that she “was not pregnant”.
“I had three children and there is a belly. From now on, ladies, I will have a belly and it will be my tummy. We will all settle in and get used to it. It is not going anywhere. It is my name is Violet, Sam and Sera” , she told DeGeneres at the time.
Garner remembers thinking, “I better talk about this and Ellen [DeGeneres] it was so sweet to leave me. But did I just feel that we can too? “

Garner added that the headlines speculating whether she is pregnant or not “still happen” today.
“I’m 48 years old and I’m single,” said Garner. “And it’s still happening, so you might as well take that bull by the horns.”
Despite constant speculation, the Once Upon a Farm co-founder discussed the importance of valuing our bodies.
“It’s just a body. Be grateful to him. He carried you here. He carried babies for you. What else do you want? My God,” she added.

Garner was hit by pregnancy rumors last October, after a photo she shared of a pumpkin carved into a larger pumpkin on her lap sparked questions from fans online.
“I STILL DON’T HAVE MORE BABIES. Good God, I didn’t even see it, I just saw the corresponding smiles,” wrote Garner at the time.
She also avoided pregnancy rumors in September, when she shared a video of her dancing in blue overalls, which prompted a social media user to ask if she was pregnant.
