The last we’d heard Jennifer Garner was pumping the brakes on her relationship with businessman John Miller.
The 13 Going On 30 star was spending all her time with the kids and Ben Affleck — despite finalizing their divorce.

Well, on Wednesday a source close to Jen revealed the romance is now stronger than ever, which might finally be what momma needs to finally pull away from her baby daddy.
The insider spilled to ET:
“Jen feels so lucky to have met John and their relationship only continues to grow. They both wanted to take it slow, but it has gotten serious and they couldn’t be happier.”
Like Jen, Miller also has kids from a previous marriage.
While they’re happy, the source clarified neither divorcée is looking to rush back into nuptials:
“[Garner and Miller are] in a true honeymoon phase in their relationship and while they’ve spoken about a future together, neither of them are ready to plan a wedding or get engaged. Jen has no interest in jumping into marriage quickly. She only just solidified her divorce so right now she just loves all their time together.”
And “all their time” is ALL THE TIME according to the insider:
“John’s been at their Palisades house so much lately. They all [John, Jen and their kids] stay up late playing board games.”
The source continued:
“Jen has something very different with John than she had with Ben. She and John are both interested in living a healthy lifestyle, working out and eating well, except for the occasional trip to Chick-fil-A! When they aren’t with the kids, they take time on their own seeing movies and having romantic dinners.”
Did… she and Ben not eat dinner and watch movies together? Man, we’re starting to see why they didn’t work out…
Speaking of Ben, the source says she’s greatly reduced the amount of time she spends with him.
The coparenting still happens, and he still hangs out with the kids all the time, but they’ve just naturally grown apart:
“Jen is trying to move on and has built a healthy foundation with John. They enjoy their time together and that’s helped Jen put things into perspective.”
For real, this sounds very healthy for Jen.
We’re sad to see the end of an era, but Bennifer has been dunzo for years (they broke up in 2015, can you believe it??) and pretending that wasn’t the case couldn’t have been helping.
Right??
