Fans Applaud Jennifer Garner's 'Relatability' as She Introduces 'Love of My Life' in New Video
Jennifer Garner is giving fans a glimpse inside her home, and fans are head-over-heels about it–ironically, though, all the online hype has nothing to do with her interior design choices or decor style.
The video garnering all the attention came from a larger piece the Alias alum organized with Architectural Digest, showcasing her new California home. Though the special feature offered fans an insider view of the entire "private paradise" that is her "lush oasis in L.A.," it was a clip from her bedroom that won over viewers online.
In an Instagram post shared Sunday, Sept. 8, Garner promoted the new feature with a short video of herself walking fans through it. While the tour was not completely candid, the actress' "relatability" and "vulnerability" were at the forefront of the clip.
"Welcome to my bedroom," she said enthusiastically. "This is TBear, my dad gave him to me when I was three," the Family Switch actress and producer shared while playing with the stuffed brown bear. "[He's] from the Sears catalog. My mom made him some overalls."
Garner's tour continued, explaining the choices she consciously made for her bedroom. "I knew I just wanted something that felt tight, compact, it was not a space that I needed a ton of room devoted to."
"Do you like it, TBear?" she joked. "Yeah, TBear likes it."
Her enthusiasm over the finished room and sentimental keepsake bled over into the next slide, which featured a throwback photo of the star with her beloved bear, as well as the caption: "Congrats on becoming @archdigest official, TBear. Love of my life, this guy. I think it’s the overalls ???????."
Garner's Instagram followers couldn't get enough of her bubbly personality or the candid nature of the clip.
"You’re simply the best," one Instagram user declared. "Relatability and vulnerability is the new 'thing' and you’ve got it all and then some!! The fact that you’ve held onto T-bear during every move and achievement says everything we all already knew we love about you ??."
"Jennifer you are a bright light. Love how you keep it real and all of us enjoy your shares! You’re a class act! ??," a second exclaimed.
Someone else dubbed her the "Most down to earth and beautiful actress out there??????."
"Sears catalog...those were fun times looking through all the toys ??," another reminisced. "Jennifer you are a gem."
Her weekend upload even enticed Big Little Lies star Merrin Dungey to share a similar confession, "Jen??I still have Barnaby Bear and my sister made him a jacket so, we get it."
As for the rest of her home, Garner told the magazine that she "wanted it to feel old and cool and historic, but I also wanted to make it work for a big family with a lot of things going on."
Her October 2024 cover issue also captures the intentional details Garner's interior design team spread out throughout the rest of her home, ultimately creating what the publication described as a blend of "farmhouse charm and contemporary comfort."
Which, last we checked, totally makes sense–she's been entertaining her mindful, farm girl era for quite sometime.
