It was during the talk on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live show when Grey's Anatomy star Scott Foley made a comment on his short marriage to Jennifer Garner.
During the show, Andy Cohen asked Scott about dating any “young starlet,” to which Scott mentioned his union with Jennifer Garner.
“I got married during Felicity. It was a short-lived marriage,” Scott recalled. “We were together for a total of about five years…I downplay that because my wife’s right behind me.”
He then added to his remark as he mentioned his wife enjoying his awkward answers, “We’re speaking about this with my current wife behind me and she’s laughing. She’s really enjoying the squirming that I’m doing.”
After Scott’s marriage to Jennifer Garner halted in 2004, the actress went on to marry Ben Affleck. Scott, on the other hand, got married to his current wife, Marika, in 2007.
