Singer Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck, officially ending their two-year marriage. Their relationship, known as Bennifer, had a long history, starting with their meeting on the set of “Gigli” in 2001 while Lopez was still married to Cris Judd. The couple officially began dating in the summer of 2002, with rumors of an engagement circulating in November 2002. However, their relationship faced challenges, including the box office failure of “Gigli” and a postponed wedding in 2003. The couple ultimately split in 2004, with both moving on to different relationships and marriages. Lopez married Marc Anthony and had twins, while Affleck married Jennifer Garner and had three children. Lopez’s relationships after Anthony included Alex Rodriguez, while Affleck dated Ana de Armas. In 2021, rumors of a rekindled romance between Lopez and Affleck began circulating, with the couple confirming their engagement in April 2022 and marrying in a drive-thru ceremony in Las Vegas. They held a larger wedding in Georgia later that year. In January 2023, Lopez and Affleck spoke about blending their families, but by May 2024, rumors of trouble in their relationship began circulating, leading to Lopez filing for divorce in August 2024. The couple did not have a prenuptial agreement.
