Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck have welcomed their third child.

The 39-year-old actress has given birth to a son who joins the couple's daughters Violet, six and Seraphina, three.

Few details have been released on the birth however a source confirmed the happy news to Us Weekly.

A spokesperson for the couple were unavailable for comment when contacted by MailOnline earlier today.

The couple, who have been married for seven years, announced Jennifer’s third pregnancy in August 2011.

The actress did not use the opportunity to put her feet up and instead was seen running errands almost daily.

Jennifer was last spotted out with her daughters just last week as she took them to a library.

Earlier this month the couple revealed they had decided to let their daughters choose the name of their unborn child.

'Our girls are working on names. At first they were definitely Disney. It was like, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck. And then they’ve moved on. Then it was Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Smee.

'They’re coming up with lists and coming in and saying, ‘Let’s have a baby-naming contest! Let’s have a baby-naming poll! They ask everyone, because they just want to know. But we’re not telling,' she told E! Online.
