Zac Affleck opened the notes app and wrote a statement. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star hopped onto Instagram in the wake of his estranged wife, Jen Affleck, filing for divorce and revealing his behavior during their marriage.“I understand why certain moments have been difficult for people to watch, they’re difficult for me too,” Zac said. “As I reflect on this time in my life, I fully acknowledge that my words and actions were unacceptable, and they hurt those I care about the most.” Presumably, he’s referring in part to this video Jen posted of him criticizing her postpartum body:Zac noted that he’s “taken full responsibility” for his behavior and said there’s “no excuse” for moments he failed to show Jen “the kindness, respect, and compassion she deserves.”The reality star went on to confirm that he did not film the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County spinoff, and that he hasn’t watched the episodes—which were filmed “during an especially difficult time for Jen and I.” He added that no matter how events are portrayed/edited, “Jen is the mother of my children and someone I’ve loved and shared a life with for years. Especially as Jen prepares to welcome our fourth child, the last thing I want to do is unintentionally cause her any stress.”InstagramHe also noted that they’ve talked privately and that he’s apologized, saying “Jen and I are constantly working to be on great terms and we share a deep sense of respect and aprpeciation for one another. My children may see this online someday, and all I want them to know is that their parents love them more than anything, and I am committed to showing up as the best version of myself for our family unit.”InstagramJen hasn’t responded as of yet.
