Ben Affleck “would love another chance” with ex-wife Jennifer Garner if the timing is right, a source exclusively tells Page Six. The Justice League star is reportedly open to rekindling their romance but acknowledges that now may not be realistic.
“Ben just got out of a marriage and finalized his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. He is really busy with work and focused on this new chapter,” the insider explains. “Plus, Ben respects Jen’s relationship with John [Miller] and would never come between them.”
Affleck’s failed reunion with Lopez may have played a role in his renewed appreciation for Garner. After rekindling their early-2000s romance and tying the knot in 2022, Affleck and Lopez’s differences became apparent.

Their marriage was plagued by conflicting lifestyles and intense public scrutiny, leading to their recent divorce. Sources say the split has left Affleck reflecting on the stability and deep connection he once had with Garner.

However, a second source says Garner does not share Affleck’s feelings. “The feeling is not mutual on Jen’s side. She’s happy with John, and that’s just not where her head is at,” the source reveals. “She has a great co-parenting relationship with Ben, and that’s where things stand on her end at the moment.”
Garner has been dating businessman John Miller on and off since 2018. Despite Affleck and Garner’s close bond, her focus remains on her relationship with Miller.
The exes, who were married for 10 years before divorcing in 2015, recently reunited to celebrate their son Samuel’s 13th birthday. Affleck and Garner, who also share daughters Violet and Seraphina were seen laughing together at a paintball park in Los Angeles.

Their growing closeness has raised concerns, with previous reports suggesting Miller feels like a "third wheel" in Garner’s life due to her deep connection with Affleck.
Despite their strong co-parenting dynamic, Garner appears committed to her current relationship, while Affleck remains open to the possibility of reconciliation in the future
