Jennifer Garner rumors: 'Mystery man' may have taken the place of Ben Affleck in her heart

While her ex-husband Ben Affleck may have found romance again in the arms of Saturday Night Live (SNL) producer Lindsay Shookus, Jennifer Garner was reportedly seen recently arm-in-arm with a "mystery man." Garner was seen with the unidentified gentleman exiting an "upscale" flower shop in Brentwood, California. This fueled rumors that the 45-year-old actress, who recently finalized her divorce from actor Affleck, has finally found romance again.

Several online publications have also circulated a photo of her walking with a brunette man after getting a cup of coffee and, in the said photo, Garner can be seen beaming with smile.

This report comes at the heels of another rumor linking her to actor Josh Duhamel, most notably known from the "Transformers" movie franchise. Duhamel, also divorced from singer/actress Fergie, was romantically linked to Garner after they had met on the set of their movie, "Love, Simon."

OK! Magazine first shared information that Garner and Duhamel bonded through their shared experiences from both divorces and, that through the time they spent on set together, something romantic apparently blossomed.

Garner and Affleck separated in 2015, and after a long drawn-out process of co-habitation for their kids' sake, they finalized their divorce in 2017. Also in that same year, Duhamel and ex-wife Fergie also belatedly announced their unofficial split. Garner and Affleck share three children together, namely, Violet (12), Seraphina (9), and Samuel (5). Duhamel and Fergie have four-year-old Axl together.

Meanwhile, Garner is staying away from revealing anything about her dating life on social media. On Valentines' Day, she only posted a photo of her dog with a rose on Instagram as her greeting for that day of romance, whereas Josh Duhamel posted a photo of Axl's project on his Instagram that says, "Love is so strong. Love cannot be broken. Love is so strong nobody can break it not even Hulk."

While much about her current status is still up for speculation, in an interview with an Australian news site, Garner is adamant that she is not dating and is apparently "not interested" to do so at the moment.
