Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, who tied the knot in a fairytale wedding two years ago on August 20, have reportedly decided to part ways. The couple, who rekindled their romance after dating in the early 2000s, had won the hearts of their fans when they reunited after nearly two decades apart. Their love story began on the set of the movie Gigli, where they first fell in love. After years of being apart and marrying other people, they eventually found their way back to each other in 2021, much to the delight of their supporters.
However, in recent months, there have been signs of tension between the two, leading to speculation that their relationship might be on the rocks. Rumours grew as the couple was often seen without their wedding rings, and reports emerged about them selling their marital homes and moving away from each other. Despite these signs, neither Jennifer Lopez nor Ben Affleck publicly addressed the speculation.
Now, according to multiple entertainment news portals, Jennifer Lopez has reportedly filed for divorce. Multiple sources revealed that the Atlas movie actress was disappointed by the lack of effort from Ben Affleck to save their marriage. The singer-actress eventually was heartbroken and, hence, decided to take action when she received no indication from him that he wanted to continue their marriage. The children remain their top priority during this difficult time.
Their split was announced on the second anniversary of their wedding, which took place in Georgia in 2022. A report by the TMZ portal mentioned that Jennifer Lopez filed the divorce documents herself, with the date of separation listed as April 26, 2024. Their fans, who had once celebrated their reunion, now face the heartbreaking news of their separation.
Meanwhile, this is not the first divorce for Ben Affleck or Jennifer Lopez. Ben was earlier married to Jennifer Garner, from 2005 to 2018. The ex-couple also has three kids together: Violet Anne Affleck, Fin Affleck, and Samuel Garner Affleck. Lopez’s divorce news comes a day after reports that the Batman V Superstar was enjoying a trip with Garner and their kids in Japan. Recently, people spotted the ex-couple having a hearty conversation ahead of their daughter Violet’s college move-in.
On the other hand, this was Jennifer Lopez’s fourth marriage. The singer-actress was earlier married to Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, and Marc Anthony. Lopez has two children, Emme and Max, with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.
