Jennifer Garner and Scott Foley

Some relationships end in a big, dramatic band, while others simply fade into forgottenness. Most fans fail to remember that Felicity stars Jennifer Garner and Scott Foley were once married. For nearly five years, no less! However, in 2004, the two decided they were simply better off as friends.

As Garner later explained, it seemed better to end it simply. “It is a fast-lane life, and if something is not working, it is considered best to end it without much thought,” the actress said. “If we lived where I was brought up [West Virginia], we would probably still be together.” While Garner recently ended her 13-year marriage with Ben Affleck, Foley has been married to actress Marika Domińczyk since 2007.
