"We're very happy. Things couldn't be better. We're kind of taking it easy and just kind of enjoying a little downtime at home," Affleck told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush for The Billy Bush Show Friday.
Earlier this week, E!'s Ted Casablanca speculated Affleck and wife Jennifer Garner were close to splitting.
Garner's rep denied the report, telling Usmagazine.com, "There is not one ounce of truth to it."
This summer, the dad to two-year-old Violet plans on taking it easy.
"I'm at a point now where even vacation sort of feels a little bit like work," Affleck told Bush. "I'd rather just kind of chill and take it easy."
Of course Affleck has been busy.
The actor traveled through the Congo filming as a guest correspondent for Nightline about the war torn country.
"It's definitely changed me," Affleck said of the experience. "It's definitely been a part of I guess a growing sense that I have a responsibility to do something with my life thats other than just serving mileage in some way. You have a responsibility to your kid and also a responsibility to the world around you, so all that [is] part of the motivation for doing all this stuff."

sPaCeYFor the love of God this is like the only Hollywood couple who is not totally messed up so lets get out of their lives and let them decide if they need a romantic getaway. Even if they did the paparazzi would still be in their face!!!report abuseposted June 30, 2008 6:04 PM PDT

MarlaI do think that Ben and Jennifer could use a romantic getaway. Whether or not their marriage is "on the rocks", it's none of our business. Besides, if their marriage is in trouble, a romantic getaway may be what they need to spice things up, and fall back in love again. :)report abuseposted June 30, 2008 3:40 PM PDT

BenzeauxChattonbourgeThere are two countries with the name Congo in them, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Republic of the Congo, and they are both war torn. Might be helpful to know which region is being referred to, but hey its only Africa right. Of course, most people reading this article probably couldn't locate the Congo on a map.report abuseposted June 30, 2008 3:24 PM PDT
