“We did it,” the report said. “Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday — all of us wanting the same thing — for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.”

Rumors began to surface in May that the couple was heading for divorce as tabloids reported that they hadn’t been seen together in weeks and that Affleck had moved out of their home, which was then put up for sale, before he moved into his own home.
