"Alias" star Jennifer Garner has given birth to her first child, a daughter, with actor-husband
Ben Affleck, US Weekly magazine reported on Thursday.
A publicist for Garner, 33, could not immediately be reached for comment. Affleck's representative declined comment on the report.
Us Weekly reported on its Web site that the birth came after doctors induced labor at a Los Angeles hospital on Wednesday night, a week before Garner's expected due date. The magazine quoted an unidentified friend of the couple as saying Affleck, 33, was with his spouse "the entire time."
The couple simultaneously announced their marriage, and Garner's pregnancy, in June. The pair were widely reported to have begun dating last year, months after Affleck and former girlfriend Jennifer Lopez called off their highly publicized engagement.
Affleck and Garner first worked together on the 2001 film "Pearl Harbor" and co-starred in the 2003 superhero action film "Daredevil," leading to Garner's big-screen spin-off role in this year's "Elektra."
Garner is best known for her role on the ABC espionage thriller "Alias," in which she plays the sexy, globe-trotting spy Sydney Bristow. Her pregnancy was written into the story line of her "Alias" character this season.
The Houston-born actress filed for divorce from her first husband, actor Scott Foley, in 2003, after 2 1/2 years of marriage. They had no children.
