Jennifer Garner has yet to break free of her ex-Ben Affleck completely, no matter how much stress it puts on her life and her relationship with John Miller. She says she is stepping back to let Ben handle his divorce issues with Jennifer Lopez alone.
While Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s divorce drama grows messier, Jen Garner has yet to keep her word on backing away from the Gone Girl star. Although Garner claims her relationship with John Miller is good, rumors remain regarding her and Ben’s true intentions.
On Wednesday, Garner looked in the best mood as photographers caught her again leaving Affleck’s nearby home. According to the Daily Mail insiders, Jen stopped by Ben’s house to check in on him. She knows things are tense between Ben and JLo as they continue to navigate their divorce, so Jen keeps tabs on Ben to ensure he is okay.
However, fans believe that there is much more to Jennifer Garner’s check-ins with Ben Affleck than either is ready to admit. They feel that Ben secretly tries to reel Jen back in and ensure they see each other daily. “Garner sacrificed her boyfriend because she is still madly in love with Ben,” writes one DM commenter.

John Miller understands that Jennifer Garner will always have a special bond with Ben Affleck because they share children. However, John is losing his patience. He feels neglected and ignored by Jennifer, and if things do not stop, Garner may be forced to choose who she wants to stay in her life, Ben or John.
Some fans agree with John and JLo’s attitude. They think Ben is aware that Jen will come running to him at the mere suggestion of a crisis. Another fan writes, “It’s starting to feel like she’s Ben’s mom rather than ex-wife.”
“When Jen realized her ex-husband’s marriage was past the point of salvation, her only concern was Ben’s well-being and sobriety,” states one more. However, fans are becoming more torn about Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s relationship. Many think it will be only a matter of time before the former spouses decide to give their love another shot.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner will continue their friendship and co-parenting relationship. However, seeing how their relationship plays out should be interesting once Affleck’s divorce becomes final. But, some feel almost certain that heartbroken Jennifer Lopez will likely drag things out as long as possible, especially if she believes Jen and Ben are growing close again.
