During her ex’s wedding weekend, Garner was seen hanging out with her father, William, and boyfriend John Miller in South Charleston, West Virginia, as reported by Page Six. A source close to the actress said “I’m sure she’s thrilled to get rid of her fourth child,” referencing when Garner provided support to Affleck while he was dealing with his alcohol addiction after their separation in 2017 and staging an intervention in 2018.
The couple’s three children, Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel,10, were in attendance at the wedding. However, it was unclear if Garner was invited to the ceremony.

Although they haven’t been together for years, the former couple is still connected through their children and his issues may become her issues if it affects them. “Jen has always approached things the same, no matter who Ben has been with. They have kids together — so if he has another episode, or falls off the wagon, it would be her problem,” a close source explained.
“They have three kids together and she loved him with all her heart. I’m sure she would want him to be happy, but she has her own life and her own boyfriend.”
Affleck previously made comments about his ex-wife during an interview with Howard Stern last December.
“Ultimately, we tried, we tried, we tried because we had kids, but both of us felt like we didn’t want this to be the model that our kids see of marriage. Everything you read [in the news about the divorce] was bulls–t. The truth was we took our time, we made our decision … We grew apart. We had a marriage that didn’t work. This happens. She’s somebody I love and respect, but to whom I shouldn’t be married any longer.”
“We did it amicably. We did our best. Did we have moments of tension? Did we have disagreements over custody? Was stuff difficult for us? Did we get angry? Yes, but fundamentally it was always underpinned with a respect. I knew she was a good mom. I always hoped she knew I was a good dad. I knew I was.
