Jennifer Garner has had an on-again, off-again relationship with businessman John Miller since 2018. As Jennifer is often spotted with her second ex-husband, Ben Affleck, people have begun to wonder if Jen and John are still together.
Jennifer Garner and John Miller’s Relationship Has Been Off and On Since 2019
After meeting in 2018, Jennifer and John were going strong for close to two years. However, the couple decided to go their separate ways just as Los Angeles went into lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Their love didn’t fizzle out completely at the time and the couple rekindled their romance in 2021. In February 2024, a source told In Touch that the 13 Going on 30 star was “relieved” that John was “different from Ben. In Jen’s eyes, John’s a keeper.”
Things seemed to cool down between them once again in August 2024. A source told Life & Style that Jen and John were “on a break” while she supported Ben amid his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The “On the Floor” singer filed for divorce from Ben after two years of marriage, citing their date of separation as April 26, 2024.
“Jen’s had so much going on with Ben, it just took a toll, and she and John ended up going their separate ways. It wasn’t her choice,” the source said.
“Ben’s been turning to Jen [Garner] for advice and support, and that’s been a big source of annoyance for John,” the insider added of Jen and John’s latest split. “He doesn’t enjoy competing with her ex-husband for her attention.”
However, the couple soon confirmed their romance was still going strong when they were spotted enjoying a summer date night in Los Angeles later that month.
Are Jennifer Garner and John Miller Still Together in 2025?
Jennifer and John are still together as of March 2025. Fans were unsure of their relationship status after Jen sparked reconciliation rumors with the Batman actor when they were spotted getting cozy while celebrating their son’s 13th birthday.
However, sources exclusively told In Touch that John wasn’t worried about Jen’s connection with Ben as he was “confident” in their relationship.
“Yes, [Ben and Jen] hug a lot and show physical affection. And while there’s a lot of people hoping they’ll get back together, it’s not going to happen. Jen is happy that Ben has finally found inner peace, but she’s in love with John,” the insider explained on March 5, 2025. “Of course, John gets a ton of questions from his friends about Jen and Ben’s relationship, some even think he should be worried. Most men wouldn’t be thrilled to see their girlfriend in an intimate embrace with her ex, but John knows the truth.”
When Did Jennifer Garner and John Miller Meet?
John and Jennifer met shortly before Jennifer’s divorce from Ben was finalized in November 2018. Jennifer had held off on dating until she was officially divorced from the Good Will Hunting star, but she was ready to dip her toes back into the dating pool.
“Jen has been wanting to move on and now when the divorce is finalized, she finally can,” a source told People on October 10, 2018. “She has had no choice but to be patient since Ben needed to finish his rehab treatment. But she was ready to sign the papers.”
They kept their relationship low-key and the Alias alum took some time before introducing the CaliGroup CEO to her children, Violet, Fin and Samuel.
“They are casually dating but it’s not serious,” a separate source told the outlet at the time. “He hasn’t met her kids.”
Jennifer Garner and John Miller Kept Their Romance Out of the Spotlight
Despite being a famous actress, Jennifer always did her best to keep her relationship with John private.
“They’re not into the power couple trend,” a source exclusively told In Touch in February 2024. “They’re homebodies but like to go out occasionally, and they both like movies, books and cooking.”
To do that, the couple avoided appearing on red carpets together, instead choosing to meet up inside the venue, as well as arriving separately to outings like dinner.
“They have a good time together, and they keep the relationship guarded,” explained the insider. “Jen is a magnet for publicity, but she does everything in her power to protect John’s privacy.”
Keeping tight-lipped was seemingly working for the couple before their latest break. But things
“They are perfect for each other,” a source told Life & Style on May 8, 2024. “John really is her other half. She’s told friends, ‘I’ve never known love like this!’”
