An American tabloid has come up with claims that Jennifer Garner and Josh Duhamel are back together. The two, who have split from their partners Ben Affleck and Fergie, respectively, apparently got close after meeting on the set of their movie Love, Simon.

OK! claimed that the 45-year-old Transformers actor asked the Daredevil star to give him another chance. An alleged source said: "Josh realized that what they shared was too special to let slip by, so he begged Jen to give him another chance. Jen is doing this on her terms and wants to take it slow, which is fine with Josh."

"Jen is happy to have a man in her life again, especially someone like Josh since he's also going through a divorce," the insider added.

"He's ready to prove that he can be exactly the kind of guy she's looking for and has vowed that he's not going to lose her again," the source went on.

Garner and Affleck announced their split in 2015, a day after their 10th wedding anniversary. However, it was only last April when the pair decided to finally file for divorce.

Meanwhile, Duhamel and Fergie parted ways after eight years of marriage. The couple announced their separation in September 2017.

In March, Duhamel had talked about the romance rumours about him and Garner. He told E! News: "It does truly amaze me what some of the things that are printed," he said. "It's like, how is that even legal? I try not to comment on it. It is what it is and it's part of the business. We're in the circus and that's part of being in the circus."

Adding on, Garner had recently opened up about tabloid scrutiny, during an interview on CBS Sunday Morning. The 46-year-old actress shared that there were "five or six cars, sometimes as many as 15 to 20 on weekends" outside of her home for a decade.

"And looking back on that. I really feel the stress of it. I really – I could cry talking about it," she stated.

"What I think I've learned is that the scrutiny in your private life puts a pressure to make something happen. You feel a pressure to hurry up and get married, 'cause you think that'll end the – 'Are they engaged? Are they not?' And that's true in the reverse, as well. If you are – if you know, if there is any inkling of trouble, or if the tabloids decide there's trouble, it can create trouble," Garner said.

"But to be honest, public scrutiny, everyone says, 'Oh, you've had to go through this in public.' The public isn't what's hard. What's hard is going through it," she admitted.
