Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck To Divorce

Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, US media outlets reported on Tuesday. This comes two years after the couple, famously known as “Bennifer,” rekindled their romance and married. Their relationship first began in 2002 on the set of “Gigli” and became a media sensation. However, they ended their engagement in early 2004, only to reunite nearly two decades later.

Lopez and Affleck announced their engagement in April 2022 and married in a Las Vegas ceremony in July, followed by a lavish celebration in Georgia. Despite their high-profile relationship and the purchase of a $60 million home, rumors of trouble surfaced earlier this year. Lopez’s recent birthday celebration without Affleck and the sale of their joint home fueled speculation.

The divorce papers list their separation date as April 26, 2024. Sources suggest their differing approaches to public life contributed to the strain on their marriage. Lopez was previously married to Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, and Marc Anthony, while Affleck was married to Jennifer Garner.
