These speculations gained momentum when the couple listed their Beverly Hills mansion for sale in early June, asking $65 million, which is $4 million more than what they paid.
The couple – who famously rekindled their romance and married in July 2022 – shared the home since June 2023.
Recently, reports surfaced that Garner and The Accountant star – married 2005 to 2018 – were seen together, moving his belongings out of the mansion he shared with Lopez and into the Brentwood rental, which he pays $100,000/month to live.
The celebrity exes, who share three children together – Violet, 18, Finn (formerly Seraphina), 15, and Samuel, 12 – were married from 2005 until their divorce was finalized in 2018.
Affleck’s moaning
The star of 13 Going on 30 is said to have been a supportive figure and counselor to the Good Will Hunting star and Lopez amidst rumors of strain in their two-year marriage.
However, sources now say that Garner is creating a distance between her and Affleck’s drama, in part to focus on her relationship with John Miller, a 46-year-old businessman.
“Jen’s always been a problem solver but Ben’s problems with J.Lo are beginning to cause tensions with John, and that’s the last thing she wants,” a tipster says, adding that Affleck’s bellyaching has become too much for the Alias star.
“Jen is in love with a stable businessman, her kids are becoming independent, and Ben’s constant chaos is regurgitating painful memories of their divorce,” offers Dr. Gilda Carle, a relationship coach, who’s referring to Garner feeling like she was second to JLo, even when Bennifer was split. “Moving away from Ben is a healthy move for her, and her relationship with Mr. Miller.”
‘She’s out’
Previously speaking about the Pearl Harbor star causing a divide between his ex and Miller, a source told the Daily Mail on June 14, “Of course it bothers John that Jen is so hyper focused on her ex-husband,’. “He cares deeply for Ben and sympathizes with what he is going through with Jennifer, 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.”
And after Affleck visited the Elektra star in her Los Angeles home over the Fourth of July weekend, Miller started to feel burdened.
“John is tired of weekends and holidays he could be spending with Jen being taken up by her therapy sessions with Ben,” the insider shares, adding that Garner is united with Miller and trying to end her side hustle as a marriage counselor.
