In June 2011, while filming “The Perks Of Being A Wallflower” in Pennsylvania, Miller was a passenger in a vehicle that was pulled over for a broken brake light. Police discovered 20 grams of marijuana in their possession. Miller was charged with drug possession but the charges were later dropped. They faced a fine of $600 dollars for two citations of disorderly conduct.

In April 2020, a video surfaced online that appeared to show Miller choking a woman and throwing her to the ground. Variety confirmed that the video took place in Reykjavik at Prikið Kaffihús, “a trendy bar in central Reykjavik that Miller frequents” when in the city. The outlet reported that a bar employee identified the person in the video as Miller and said they were escorted off the premises by staff after the incident.
