Stunning actress Jennifer Garner is grateful she never had children with ex-husband Scott Foley - because it would have been so much "harder."

The Daredevil star and Foley split in April 2003 and divorced three months ago. Garner has since found love with her Alias co-star, Michael Vartan.

Garner says, "Of course I never thought the divorce statistics would apply to me. I was beyond heartbroken when they did. But, you know, you do get up and get on with it. You have to.

"I feel like I’m out of the woods now. It’s not like we had kids, it could have been a lot harder."
