Jennifer Garner and John Miller Are ‘Perfect for Each Other’: ‘They’re Like an Old Married Couple’

Jennifer Garner and John Miller are still going strong despite Ben Affleck’s neediness. However, a source exclusively tells Life & Style that they’re high in contention as the most boring couple in Hollywood, and their date nights are a serious snoozefest.

“They almost never go anywhere, and when they do go on a date it’s usually to the most low-key places. There’s no glitz or glam or excitement,” an insider says. “They really are perfect for each other because they both seem happiest just staying home for their date nights and maybe taking a walk around the neighborhood after dinner.”

The source continues, “They’re like an old married couple, except after their Netflix dates, Jennifer usually sends John home by 10 P.M. so she can get a proper rest. She likes to get her beauty sleep and be there for kids in the morning. Plus, she’s too respectful of her kids to have him do sleepovers when they’re home, which is most of the time.”

The insider says that the Ghosts of Girlfriends Past star, 52, and John, 46, are in a “very predictable routine” and “they seem incredibly happy.”

“You can see why it comes across as pretty dull to most people in their social circle,” the source explains. “They could be at all the best restaurants and movie premieres and parties and instead they’d rather stay home in their sweatpants playing cards. Their friends are all happy for them, but they also think they could stand to add a little spice to things. They’re acting way older than their years.”

Jennifer and John began dating in 2018, but just months after the two got together, she was a source of support for her ex-husband, Ben, 52, as he checked into rehab for alcoholism. The exes have remained close since their divorce in 2015, and Jennifer even had the security code to Ben’s rental home while he was separated from his now-estranged wife, Jennifer Lopez .

Rumors began to swirl that the 13 Going on 3 0 star and John were taking a break as she helped ex-husband Ben, 52, through his divorce from J. Lo.

“Jen’s had so much going on with Ben, it just took a toll,” a source explained to Life & Style on August 21, the day after J. Lo officially filed for divorce. “She and John ended up going their separate ways. It wasn’t her choice.”

The insider continued, “Ben’s been turning to Jen [Garner] for advice and support, and that’s been a big source of annoyance for John. He doesn’t enjoy competing with her ex-husband for her attention. John likes Ben and tries to be understanding, but there’s only so much a guy can take.”

“Ben basically made Jen into his personal therapist once he started having issues with J. Lo. She’s who he’d run to. But it got even worse after he left J. Lo. When he moved out, he got so incredibly needy. 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 ,” the source added.

However, the Deadpool & Wolverine actress and John seemingly worked through their rough patch. She proved the naysayers wrong when she and John were spotted holding hands during a casual stroll around in a Brentwood, California, neighborhood on October 8.
