Doting Dad
The Triple Frontier actor was recently spotted spending quality time with his daughter Violet on April 14. “I hope I’m a pretty good dad,” he said on the Today show on March 4. “I certainly try very hard.

Relationship Status: Single
Meanwhile, Ben is single and ready to mingle. After reuniting with his ex Lindsay Shookus for a second time, they decided they couldn’t make it work. “After having a lengthy discussion about where their relationship was going, they both agreed that it was unrealistic to take things to the next level because of family commitments and living arrangements,” an insider told In Touch.

“Lindsay doesn’t want to disrupt [her] daughter Madeline’s life by moving her from New York to L.A., and Ben can’t move his kids to New York, so they decided to call it quits,” the source added. “It was all very emotional!”

Tough Times
After a difficult 2018, the Good Will Hunting alum realized that he needed to make a change. While promoting one of his films, Ben addressed his struggle with alcoholism. “It doesn’t really bother me to talk about alcoholism and being alcoholic,” he said in an interview. “It’s part of my life, it’s something that I deal with. It doesn’t have to subsume my whole identity and be everything, but it’s something you have to work at.”
