It is pertinent to mention that The Five-Star Weekend star, 54, split from fellow actor Ben, also 54, in 2015.  During an appearance on Aspire with Emma Grede on Tuesday, Jennifer admitted that after a decade of marriage, she had stepped back from her career while raising their three children. 'I panicked when I was first out of my marriage and realised I had taken such a step back in my work.' 'Suddenly I realised, like, I don't know how long I'll be able to work. This isn't a career that's like, hey, you're 60, you're 55, you're 43 - come on, let's pay you more than you've ever made. That's not been traditionally the role.' Jennifer and Ben married in June 2005 and share three children, Violet, 20, Fin, 17, and Samuel, 14.
