Jennifer Garner and her boyfriend of six years, John Miller , have reportedly taken ‘a break ’ from their relationship due to the strain caused by Ben Affleck 's recent personal struggles. According to Life & Style, Garner's ex-husband Ben Affleck has been relying heavily on her for support and advice as his marriage to Jennifer Lopez fell apart, which has taken a toll on her relationship with Miller. “Jen’s had so much going on with Ben, it just took a toll,” the source said, adding that “and she and John ended up going their separate ways.
It wasn’t her choice.” The report stated that as Affleck began experiencing problems in his relationship with Lopez, he "basically made Jen into his personal therapist" and would frequently turn to her for guidance. The situation only worsened after Affleck moved out, as he reportedly became increasingly needy and would constantly reach out to Garner for help.
Despite their separation, Garner has always been there for Affleck without fail, which has caused friction in her relationship with Miller. John Miller, the CEO of CaliGroup and a businessman, has been reportedly upset by the amount of time and attention Garner has been giving to her ex-husband. The report quoted a source, “John likes Ben and tries to be understanding, but there's only so much a guy can take.
It was one crisis after another, and when he’s in that state, Jen is always there for him without fail. John has finally had enough." Some friends have even blamed Affleck for the strain on Garner and Miller's relationship.
Despite their separation, Garner and Affleck have remained committed to co-parenting and continue to work together as a family unit for their their three children: Violet, 18; Seraphina, 15; and Samuel, 12.
