“[Affleck] got a key to come and go as he pleases, and he’s been spending a ton of time at [Garner’s] place, coming over for dinners and hanging with the kids,” the source added. “It’s great for his state of mind and the kids love having him around,” the source told OK!.

Complicating matters is the fact that Garner has been dating businessman John Miller since 2018, according to OK!.

However, OK! reported that Miller has some concerns.

Garner and Affleck even traveled to Japan together in the summer of 2024 with their kids, according to Fox Digital. “They’re best friend exes and the epitome of good co-parenting,” a source told Fox Digital.
