Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have a long history together, and it seems to be getting in the way of their personal lives. The couple, who share three children together, Violet, Fin, and Samuel, called it quits in 2015. Since that time, they’ve both moved on in their love lives. Affleck married Jennifer Lopez, who filed for divorce after two years earlier this week. Meanwhile, Garner began dating John Miller. Sadly, it looks like that relationship is on the rocks as well.
According to Life and Style, Jennifer Garner and John Miller have gone their separate ways. The couple, who have been dating for about six years are reportedly taking a break from their relationship. To make matters worse, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s divorce drama is said to be to blame for their split.
Sources tell the outlet that Miller couldn’t handle Affleck’s strong presence in Garner’s life. Ben had been leaning on his ex-wife heavily amid his divorce with JLo, and it put a strain on her romance with her longtime boyfriend.

“[They] have been on a break,” the insider told the outlet. “Jen’s had so much going on with Ben, it just took a toll. She and John ended up going their separate ways. It wasn’t her choice. Ben’s been turning to Jen [Garner] for advice and support, and that’s been a big source of annoyance for John,” the source continued. “He doesn’t enjoy competing with her ex-husband for her attention.”
Recently, Affleck and Garner were seen in Connecticut with their three kids as they dropped their oldest daughter, Violet, off at college, per The Daily Mail. The family looked happy together, and fans took notice.
Now that Jennifer Garner is single again, many fans are hoping she doesn’t rekindle her romance with Ben Affleck. Despite their close friendship and Ben’s divorce from Jennifer Lopez, things could get messy.
“Don’t go back Jennifer,” one person commented.
“She’s nuts if she even thinks about a reconciliation with Ben. He has a boatload of issues and none of them are good,” another wrote.
“I am pretty sure JG`s boyfriend of five years is tired of being her 2nd choice too,” a third comment read.
“JG still has feelings for her ex. He does, too. He spent more time with his ex and looked much happier and relaxed than he did with JLo,” a fourth person stated.
It’s unclear what the future holds for Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. However, they’re forever connected by their children. Whether they rekindle their romance or not, they’re stuck together for life.
