Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have been divorced for years, but their lives still occasionally cross paths. Married for over a decade, the couple’s friendship remains strong as they raise their three children together. Affleck recently married Jennifer Lopez, but rumors of trouble in paradise have Tinsel Town buzzing. Reports suggest that Garner is trying to help the couple, but her current partner John Miller believes ‘it’s not her responsibility.’
John Miller gives advice to Jennifer Garner amid Ben and Jen split rumors
“Of course it upsets John that Jen is focusing so much on her ex-husband,” an insider told the Daily Mail. Insisting that he cares about Ben but believes Garner shouldn’t take responsibility for his marital woes, the insider added, “He cares about Ben a lot and is sympathetic to what Jennifer is going through, but that doesn’t mean Jen should solve her ex-husband’s problems with his current wife. That doesn’t make sense for anyone.”
Ben Affleck is currently living in a $100,000-a-month rental property in Brentwood, which is close to Garner’s neighborhood. His move has fueled separation rumors between the couple, who rekindled their romance in 2022. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are reportedly facing challenges in their marriage. Garner is believed to be trying to broker a reconciliation between the couple and has been spotted visiting her, possibly offering advice. Sources claim Garner’s alleged fiancée is tired of her involvement in trying to ‘fix’ Affleck’s relationship with the Atlas star.
‘It’s not Jen’s responsibility to fix Ben and JLo’s relationship’
Aside from Ben, Garner also shares a great relationship with the Jenny From the Block singer, who reportedly approached her for help during the wedding vows. As previously reported by Daily Mail, “JLo is confiding in Zayn because she knows he’s one of the only people in the world who can understand what she’s going through.”
However, the source told the outlet, “John wants nothing more than for Ben to get well, but it’s not his girlfriend’s responsibility to take care of him.” He also reportedly believes that Ben should figure things out on his own and that his wife should handle them.
“That’s for Ben to figure out for himself and for his wife to handle. It’s not Jen’s responsibility, and he’s told her that.”
Garner and Miller’s romance ‘unaffected’ by Ben and Jen split drama
Another person speaking to the British publication noted that Miller is trying to avoid getting involved in the ongoing feud with Affleck, and insisted that it has no effect on his relationship with Garner. He knows the actress is an amazing mother and a friend who is completely focused on protecting her children, and she is also available to Ben whenever he needs her support.
For those who don’t know, both JLo and the Accountant star recently celebrated their son Samuel’s graduation ceremony in Brentwood, while they were nowhere to be seen at the school event. Garner was also present on both occasions. However, the couple put their wedding rings on full display, giving fans hope that everything will be fine between them soon.
