Let’s talk about two of Hollywood’s favorite exes: Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck. Now, it’s no secret that these two have been through the wringer, but things just got a little more complicated. According to a recent report, Ben isn’t exactly thrilled about Jen’s new man, John Miller. Despite their efforts in co-parenting therapy for the kids, it seems like Ben’s feelings about his ex-wife’s new relationship are bubbling to the surface. And folks, it’s not pretty.
According to In Touch Weekly, Ben isn’t a fan of John Miller, the CEO of a burger chain, and it’s mainly because John has taken Ben’s place as Jen’s top priority. A source close to the situation told the outlet, “Ben is used to his ex-wife dropping everything for him, but that’s all changed, and he’s no longer at the top of her list of priorities.” Can you feel the tension? The insider added that the 46-year-old can’t even hear John’s name without cringing. “He winces whenever Jen brings up John’s name,” the source said. “He can’t help finding faults with him, even though John’s the nicest guy and hasn’t done anything wrong.”
But don’t expect Jennifer Garner to hide her happiness from Ben. The insider says, “After years of dealing with Ben’s issues, she deserves to be happy!” And it seems like Jen isn’t just casually dating John. A recent report revealed that Jennifer is getting serious with the burger CEO. A source told Life & Style that Jen is “very much in love” and that the couple is “stronger than ever.” You can almost hear Ben grinding his teeth as the details unfold.

While Ben may not be thrilled about Jen’s new flame, there’s one area where the exes are excelling: co-parenting. A friend of the couple told People, “They really like to do things as a family, be it outings, church, cooking, or watching movies. They’ve both had ups and downs this year, but they seem to be in a good place.” The pair even spent Thanksgiving together, according to the source: “This was long planned. They always celebrate big holidays together as a family. The family all spent Thanksgiving together and they all cooked.”
As for John, it looks like he’s here to stay, which means Ben will have to come to terms with the fact that his ex-wife has moved on. Maybe yelling into a pillow could help Ben process his feelings. Hey, it works for some of us, right?
