Scott Foley has a high-profile dating history. Prior to meeting his wife – Grey's Anatomy star Marika Domińczyk – the actor was married to A-list actress, Jennifer Garner. The duo, who were together for "a total of about five years," met on the set of Felicity in 1999.
During the drama's four-season run, Scott had played Noel Crane. Meanwhile, Jennifer guest-starred as his character's long-distance girlfriend, Hannah. "She played my girlfriend on Felicity. We met on the show and...we hit it off instantly and [we were] soon dating," Scott recalled on Sirius XM's Andy Cohen Live in 2021.

By April 2003, Jennifer confirmed that she and Scott had split amicably. Talking to InStyle, she said: "That sounds cliché, but we really were victims of Hollywood.

Following the announcement, Jennifer was linked to her Alias co-star, Michael Vartan, forcing Scott to speak out.
"Nobody else was involved," he said at the time. "Jennifer became a huge celebrity. She became a huge star, and she deserved everything she got. There was no other relationship, there was no infidelity, nothing. People get divorced, you know? Through no one's fault and everyone's fault."

Jennifer and Ben have since divorced, but remain on good terms. She is currently in a relationship with businessman John Miller.
Jennifer rarely speaks about her first marriage, but in 2013, the 13 Going On 30 favourite called Scott a "great guy" while chatting to Allure. "We were full-on grown-ups, but looking back I'm aware we did not know what hit us," she said of their "imploding" relationship.

I mean, we do not keep in contact because she [Jennifer] has her own family. I have mine. It wouldn't be something that we would search out," he explained.
"Everybody says, 'Hi,' and you're cordial and you move on," Scott concluded. "That's life, right?"
