Jennifer Garner and John Miller have called it quits after dating for almost two years and their split was confirmed shortly after her sighting with Bradley Cooper on the beach.

On Thursday, photos of Garner and Cooper made headlines after they were seen with his daughter on the beach. A source with direct knowledge about Garner and Miller's relationship told TMZ that the "Miracles from Heaven" star has already broken up with the businessman.

However, the source also said that Garner and Cooper have been close pals for years since they starred in "Alias" and have been spending time together with their significant others over dinner and various occasions.

Garner and Miller were notoriously private about their romance. E! News reported that they were still together earlier this year.

"Jen still sees John and seems content with where things are in their relationship," a source told the outlet.

"John is a nice normal guy who is in a similar situation with raising kids while being divorced. They've made what they have work and enjoy being together."

Garner shares three kids with her ex-husband Ben Affleck, Violet 14, Seraphina, 11, and Samuel, 8. Meanwhile, the CEO and Chairman of Cali Group, also shares two children with his ex-wife Caroline Campbell.

Miller and Garner were still happy together in February. However, the source said that Garner was focused on her kids and they are her priority.

"That will never change and that's really what her life is about. She's busy with work and kids. There's not a lot of time for an intense serious relationship," the source continued.

"It is what it is for now. But if she can see John and it works, she's very happy to do that. He makes her happy and her time with him is always well spent.”

However, around the same time, an insider said that the businessman was "uncomfortable" with Affleck's interview, particularly when the "Batman" star said his divorce from Garner was his biggest regret.

“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,” the source said.

At present, Affleck is happy with his girlfriend, Ana de Armas, and Garner is supportive of his new romance.
