Rumours have circulated since the ex-couple, who were married for over a decade, were seen spending time together frequently.

Garner, who is currently dating businessman John Miller, is reportedly planning to marry him soon. A source shared with People, “Garner truly just wants her kids to be happy. She will continue to make sure that they spend time together as a family and include Ben… The kids enjoy when they all spend time together.”
