Affleck Still Wants a Boy

Actor wants to 'keep going' for boy after newborn daughter

Share

(Newser) – Ben Affleck may be delighted with his new baby girl with Jennifer Garner, but there's one thing he's still desperately waiting for—a son. He wants to try again for a brother for his daughters, Seraphina Rose and 3-year-old Violet, reports the Mirror. "Ben's happy to keep going until he gets his boy," said a pal. "He has visions of dressing a little guy in Boston Red Sox gear and tossing a baseball around."

Because that's not Ben's vision... but maybe you were shooting for something more profound?
