New York ? Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck welcomed a baby girl into the world Thursday.

Representatives for both actors confirmed the birth to The Associated Press. Their publicists, Ken Sunshine and Nicole King, said the child was born at 5:26 p.m. CDT Thursday.

“Mother, father and baby are doing great,” Sunshine and King confirmed. They would not give any other details.

It is the first child for Garner, 33, and Affleck, 33, who were married in June.

The confirmation came after several media outlets reported the baby’s birth – hours before the time of birth supplied by Sunshine and King. Us Weekly reported the baby was born sometime before 1 p.m. CDT, and E! News said the couple had named her Violet.

Affleck co-starred with Garner in 2003’s “Daredevil,” her first big movie role, but they didn’t begin dating until last year.
