Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleckâs Co-Parenting Relationship
Garner and Affleck were married in 2005 and their divorce was finalized in 2018. Prior to marrying Garner, Affleck was linked to Jennifer Lopez and the pair rekindled their romance in 2021, tied the knot in 2022, and separated again in 2024. But throughout that tumultuous union, Affleck and Garner amicably co-parented their children together.

Will Garner and Affleck Ever Get Back Together?
In June of 2025, Affleck is a single man and Garner is happily dating businessman John Miller. However, the former couple remains very close, and People reported that Affleck was âextra giddy lately ⦠and much more affectionateâ with Garner. Page Six reported that a source said Affleck âwould be open to giving things another shotâ with his ex.
We know Affleck is a fan of second chances, given his history with J. Lo, but it appears that he and Garner will likely remain just close pals. Garner and Miller have been going strong since 2018, and Affleck is focused on his career and his family following his second divorce. âBen and Jennifer are friends, and they have a great co-parenting relationship,â a source told Us Weekly, and it seems to be as simple as that.
