JENNIFER LOPEZ DIVORCED…AGAIN
Written by Ella Melake on August 21, 2024
Jenny from the block is adding another divorce and ring to her collection.
Ben Affleck and Lopez are now parting ways after 2 years of marriage.
The “I ain’t your mama” singer filed for dissolution of marriage in Los Angeles on Tuesday, which coincides with the anniversary of their Riceboro, Georgia-set wedding ceremony in 2022 after they first eloped in Las Vegas a month prior.
The breakup comes after reports the two had been living separately, Lopez canceled her summer tour to spend time with her family, and they put their Beverly Hills home on the market.
Their divorce marks yet another turn in a love story between two superstars that has played out in the spotlight over decades.
Lopez and Affleck’s marriage came more than 20 years after they first met on the set of the comedy “Gigli,” where they played criminals stuck on a job together and struck up a real-life friendship which eventually turned into a relationship.
Over the years, they both married others and had families.
But Team “Bennifer” rejoiced in Bennifer 2.0 when they reconciled in 2021.
Even the pair seemed overjoyed.
So it appeared to be a fairytale when the couple went Instagram official in July 2021, months after Lopez ended her engagement to baseball legend Alex Rodriguez.
In 2024, Lopez released “The Greatest Love Story Never Told,” a documentary which told the story of her independently produced album “This Is Me… Now” and her decades-long quest for self-love.
In the film, Affleck said he learned to “compromise” with Lopez about her desire to be more public about their private life.
More recently, the pair have been seen on separate coasts, with Lopez celebrating her birthday at the end of July with a Bridgerton-themed party that did not appear to include Affleck among the attendees.
