CaliGroup owns CaliBurger and has made major investments in five tech companies geared toward fast-food chains.

CaliBurger's first locations opened up overseas. Early on, many drew comparisons between the chain and In-N-Out, with Los Angeles magazine calling CaliBurger a "shameless In-N-Out knockoff."

More recently, Miller and CaliBurger have received attention for CaliGroup's emphasis on tech. For example, CaliBurger plans to install the burger-flipping robot Flippy at most of its roughly 50 locations by the end of 2019, the company said earlier this year.

Flippy costs between $60,000 and $100,000 and is made by Miso Robotics, one of the tech companies CaliGroup has invested in.

Garner filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck in 2017.

It is unclear how Garner and Miller connected. A representative for CaliGroup did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

However, Garner has her own connection in the world of food startups, as cofounder of organic baby food company Once Upon a Farm.
