Jennifer Garner has been seen spending a lot of time with her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, as of late. Meanwhile, Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez is rumored to be hanging on by a thread. Divorce speculation has been littering the tabloids, and many fans agree that the duo seems to be heading for a split. Meanwhile, the actor still has his first wife to lean on for support. However, that may also be causing a big problem as Garner’s boyfriend, John Miller, is said to be getting tired of all of the attention she’s been giving the father of her children.
Jennifer Garner is said to be trying to help Ben Affleck as much as possible during this difficult time in his life. The pair share three children, Violet, Fin, and Samuel. So, it seems that her concern for her ex-husband may be for the sake of their kids. While that may seem like a standup thing for the actress to do, her boyfriend, John Miller, isn’t happy about the situation. He’s allegedly insisting that Affleck can navigate his issues with Jennifer Lopez on his own, per The Daily Mail.
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck May Be Putting Their Relationships in Jeopardy With Their Close Friendship
“Of course, it bothers John that Jen is so hyper-focused on her ex-husband, an insider tells the outlet. “He cares deeply for Ben and sympathizes with what he is going through with [JLo], but that doesn’t mean Jen should be the one to fix her ex-husband’s issues with his current wife. That makes no sense to anyone.”
The insider went on to claim that John Miller wants nothing but the best for Ben Affleck. However, Jennifer Garner’s support of her ex seems to be interfering with her current relationship. Now, he reportedly wants Garner to back off and let Affleck handle things on his own. Meanwhile, fans have plenty of opinions on the situation.

“She’s doing it for her own ego and in competition with JLo. She should be butting out of their marriage,” one person commented. However, others think that the actress is doing the right thing by supporting her ex-husband. “Jen G. is too amazing to sit back and watch the father of her kids relapse. She isn’t doing it for Ben. She’s doing it for the family,” another stated.
However, others believe that JLo may be to blame for the negative press surrounding Garner and Affleck. It’s been rumored that Lopez has a PR crisis team that may be spinning the divorce drama to help save her reputation. “Looks like JLo’s new PR team is hard at work! Ben’s a drunk & Garner is meddling in their marriage,” a third comment read.
Only time will tell if Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s strong bond will negatively impact their relationships with Jennifer Lopez and John Miller. Until then, fans will certainly be watching for signs and signals from both couples.
