LOS ANGELES, Aug. 20 (UPI) -- U.S. actress Jennifer Garner says she is pregnant with her second child with her husband, fellow actor Ben Affleck.

The star of the former hit TV show "Alias" confirmed months of speculation that she was expecting another child with Affleck during interview with Access Hollywood Wednesday. She told the program the sex of the new baby hasn't been determined.

Garner, 36, married Affleck, also 36, in June 2005. They already have a two-year-old daughter, Violet.

Access Hollywood said Garner's pregnancy is happening at the same time as that of Luciana Damon, the wife of Affleck's actor friend Matt Damon. That couple revealed in March they were expecting their second baby together, another daughter. Matt Damon is also stepfather to Luciana's 9-year-old daughter Alexia, Access Hollywood said.
