This week's cover of People Magazine is all about Jennifer Garner's life post-filing for divorce from Ben Affleck, and she is not happy.

The cover story includes sources that tell People Garner is "doing okay" and claim she isn't currently focusing on dating: "She will eventually, but it will be a while before she does. She's certainly not jumping up and down and screaming, 'I'm single!' and planning dates. She still says Ben was the love of her life."

The thing is, Garner wasn't aware of the story—and hit her personal Facebook page to disavow it, saying "This isn't a tragedy by any measure, but it does affect me and my family and so, before my mom's garden club lights up her phone, I wanted to set the record straight: I did not pose for this cover. I did not participate in or authorize this article. While we are here, for what it's worth: I have three wonderful kids and my family is complete."

Record = straight.
