Jennifer Garner has been secretly dating her current boyfriend John Miller for quite some time now. According to some sources, Miller may be planning one major thing to impress Garner in a way that her ex-husband Ben Affleck didn’t.

Garner didn’t seem too eager to walk down the aisle with anyone else after her divorce from Affleck. Although years had passed by since the two parted ways as a couple, it seemed marriage was a far-away concept for the Marvel star.

“I don’t know. I’m so far from it. And I don’t know that marriage would need to be a part… I mean I definitely don’t think that I’ll be single forever,” she once told People. “But this is not the time. I don’t need to complicate it; I’m good.”

But that didn’t mean Garner regretted marrying Affleck when she did. In a 2016 interview with Vanity Fair, she opened up about her emotional state a few years after her divorce announcement. The Peppermint star seemed to be in high spirits. Although her marriage with Affleck didn’t end well, she wouldn’t have changed a thing about it.

“I didn’t marry the big fat movie star; I married him,” she said. “And I would go back and remake that decision. I ran down the beach to him, and I would again. You can’t have these three babies and so much of what we had. He’s the love of my life.”

However, rumors have surfaced that she might be entertaining marriage again — this time with longtime boyfriend John Miller. A source for InTouch claimed Garner recently checked out wedding dresses in Paris, where she’s allegedly fantasized about a dream ceremony.

“Jen and John have taken a lot more trips to Europe than people realize,” the source claimed. “Paris is one of their favorite escapes, and they’ve decided getting married there this coming spring is something they want to do.”

Her hypothetical Paris wedding would also be different than the wedding she had with Affleck. Garner and Affleck had a private wedding ceremony on the exotic Turks and Caicos Islands with few guests. According to the insider, if she and Miller do wed in Paris, it’ll align more with what she envisioned a true wedding to be.

“This time around she wants a big wedding in a dream location, and John is all for it,” the source added. “He loves the idea of giving her something that Ben never did, so he’s totally encouraging her to go all out. He’s got plenty of money and wants to totally spoil her.”

Garner remains tight-lipped regarding her relationship with Miller. So much so that the little information spilled out about them usually comes from third-party sources. The media has linked the pair together on and off since 2018, and their relationship is still under the radar. What’s known about Miller is that he isn’t in the same profession as the Elektra star.

Miller is currently the CEO of the tech company Cali Group, which he founded in 2011. This makes the two even more of a mystery. However, despite their different careers, they seem to be a perfect match for each other, as they’re reportedly still together to this day.

According to one source, a reason why Garner is so smitten by Miller is because he’s different from Affleck. Since Miller doesn’t have the level of fame as Affleck, he and Garner have successfully managed to keep their romance private. It’s been a nice change of pace for the actor.

“They’re not into the power couple trend,” another source confided to InTouch. “They’re homebodies but like to go out occasionally, and they both like movies, books, and cooking.”

Because Garner takes their privacy so seriously, they haven’t arrived at red carpet events together like she and Affleck have in the past. So far, they’ve gone out of their way to avoid being seen or photographed together if they could help it. But the secrecy they’ve maintained is allegedly an improvement from having a relationship surrounded by publicity. The source went on to say, that because of these factors, Garner is “relieved” Miller isn’t like Affleck in that sense.

“In Jen’s eyes, John’s a keeper,” the insider claimed.
