Ben's cock-blocking Jen!

The former couple’s ‘connection’ is ruining her new romance.

Ben Affleck claims he still loves ex-wife Jennifer Garner – but not enough to set her free it seems! Now the former couple’s touchy-feely friendship – which was on show for all to see as they snuggled up at their daughter Seraphina’s soccer match in LA on May 11 – is starting to irk the actress’ new man, John Miller.

“John knew what he was signing up for but the intense bond Ben and Jen share is a little much at this point,” a source tells NW. “Ben calls Jen for advice about everything, day and night, and he’ll show up at her house without warning all the time.”
