“I was like ‘I can’t leave ’cause of my kids, but I’m not happy, what do I do?’ What I did was drink a bottle of scotch and fall asleep on the couch, which turned out not to be the solution,” He told Stern.

Ben and Jen were married from 2005 to 2018 and have three kids together, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 12, and 9-year-old Samuel.
