Jen Garner’s boyfriend NOT happy with Ben Affleck’s confession he ‘regrets’ their divorce – The Sun

JEFFIFER Garner’s boyfriend is not happy with Ben Affleck’s candid interviews.

Ben, 47, recently revealed he is looking to move forward in a "loving" new relationship because there is no way to fix his romance with his ex-wife.

While promoting his new movie The Way Back, the troubled actor said their divorce is his biggest regret and that he hopes for "meaningful" love in the future with someone other than his kids' mom.

Sources close to Jennifer's boyfriend of two years John Miller say he has become "uncomfortable" with Ben, who is a recovering alcoholic, putting his ex in the spotlight, again.

The Insider revealed to US Weekly: “John believes Ben would remarry Jennifer if she wanted to get back together.

"John is empathetic to Ben’s struggles with sobriety, but he worries about how Jennifer has once again become the focus.”

"The spotlight on Jennifer is intense and Ben needs to consider her feelings before speaking so publicly.

“John wants to marry Jennifer but knows she isn’t ready yet."

The couple have co-parented their children Violet, 14, Seraphina, 11, and Samuel, who turns 8 this month, since their split in 2015.

Speaking on Good Morning America, Ben said: "I never thought that I was gonna get divorced. I didn’t want to get divorced. I didn’t want to be a divorced person. I really didn’t want to be a split family with my children.

“And it upset me because it meant I wasn’t who I thought I was. And that was so painful and so disappointing in myself.”

The actor added: "There are things I would love to go back and change. I have regrets. I made plenty of mistakes, some big and some small.

"I wish I could go back in time and change all kinds of things but I can't."

And he took the opportunity to confirm that he is not looking for new love on any dating sites, as had previously been reported.

 

 

Ben continued: "I'm not on any websites… Tinder, Grinder, Bumble… I'm not on any of them. And I don't have any judgment who are but that's not me.

"I would love to have a relationship that was deeply meaningful and one to which I would be deeply committed."

Since his split from Jen, the actor has been briefly linked with model Shauna Sexton and musician Katie Cherry, while he enjoyed a longer relationship with SNL producer Lindsay Shookus.
