Ben Affleck reportedly turned to his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, for support when his marriage to Jennifer Lopez hit a rough patch and Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024.
At the time of the divorce filing, it was rumored that Ben had relapsed into some of his old vices. In response, Garner, along with Affleck’s longtime friend Matt Damon, joined forces to support him. Together, they’ve formed what insiders are calling his “mercy squad,” helping him navigate this challenging time.
While Affleck is working through his personal struggles, Garner has been in a stable relationship with John Miller, the CEO of Caliburger. Garner and Miller have been quietly dating for some time, and despite their high-profile status, they prefer to keep things low-key and out of the public eye.
A source close to the couple shared some insights into their relationship, stating, “They almost never go anywhere,” highlighting how the couple prefers to stay under the radar. The insider added, “And when they do go on a date, it’s usually to the most low-key places. There’s no glitz or glam or excitement.”
It seems that Garner and Miller find happiness in simplicity, enjoying their time together away from the spotlight. “They really are perfect for each other because they both seem happiest just staying home for their date nights and maybe taking a walk around the neighborhood after dinner,” the source concluded.
While Affleck leans on Garner for support during his personal challenges, her relationship with Miller remains strong, with both embracing a quiet, content lifestyle. As Affleck faces the next chapter of his life post-divorce, it’s clear that Garner is there for him, balancing her role as a supportive ex-wife with her own fulfilling personal life.
