Ben Affleck ‘Heartbroken’ as Jennifer Garner Prepares to Marry
UPDATE: New reports confirm that actor Ben Affleck is struggling emotionally as his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, prepares for her wedding to businessman John Miller. Insiders reveal that Affleck, 53, is feeling “heartbroken” over Garner’s impending nuptials, marking a significant moment in their post-divorce relationship.
Sources close to Affleck share that seeing Garner move on has been particularly painful for him as they continue to co-parent their three children: Violet (19), Seraphina (16), and Samuel (13). Despite their divorce in 2015, the former couple has maintained a close friendship, frequently attending family events together. However, the news of Garner’s engagement to Miller, whom she began dating in 2018, signals a definitive shift in their dynamic.
Insiders tell Radar Online that Garner is happier than she has been in years, crediting Miller with providing her a sense of stability and calm that she previously lacked. “John has been her anchor through everything,” a source disclosed, highlighting Miller’s thoughtful nature and steady presence in Garner’s life.
For Affleck, the realization that Garner has truly moved on has proven to be a bitter pill to swallow. A close friend remarked, “For Ben, that realization has been painful – he’s always had feelings for her, and now he has to accept that she’s really moved on.” This emotional turmoil comes shortly after Affleck finalized his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, adding to the complexity of his feelings regarding his past with Garner.
Despite the heartache, Affleck reportedly admires Garner for being an “amazing mom” and continues to value their co-parenting relationship. However, the sight of Garner with another man is a challenge he must now confront. “Ben understands that Jennifer deserves happiness. He’s putting his energy into their kids and trying to find some comfort in the fact that she’s at peace – even if that peace doesn’t include him,” a source explained.
Garner has kept details of her engagement private, but she was recently spotted in Los Angeles wearing a diamond ring, further solidifying the news of her upcoming wedding. As this story develops, fans and followers of the couple are left to wonder how Affleck will navigate this new chapter while continuing to support Garner as a co-parent.
Stay tuned for more updates as this emotional story unfolds, highlighting the human aspect of love, loss, and moving forward in life.
