Their on-again, off-again relationship has been in the news all over the world, and now Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are finally breaking up.

The singer and actor filed for divorce on August 20, which was their second wedding anniversary. This was the second time that she and Bennifer were no longer together.

They started dating while they were both working on the love comedy Gigli in 2003. They got engaged almost twenty years ago, but the next year they chose to put off their wedding because of all the attention from the media.

They got back together after breaking up in 2004 and had a surprise wedding in Las Vegas in 2022. After a month, they had a party for family and friends at a Georgia house that Affleck had bought when they first started dating 20 years ago.

Affleck asked Lopez to marry him a second time when they got back together. Lopez said, “I feel so lucky, happy, and proud to be with him.” We got a second chance, which is a beautiful love story.

Lopez released a documentary in 2024 called The Greatest Love Story Never Told. It told the story of her self-produced record This Is Me… Now and her long-term search for self-love. Affleck was the main reason she decided to go through with the idea.

“I told myself, ‘I don’t write, I don’t do this.’” She remembered that he told her, “You do, you write, you direct, you produce, you choreograph, you do everything.” “You need to take a step into that and own some of who you are.”

In the documentary, Affleck said he didn’t like how Lopez wanted their relationship to be the center of attention, but he had learned to “compromise.”

There were reports that they were splitting up in May 2022, after they hadn’t been seen together in almost two months. At the time, neither Lopez nor Affleck said anything about the rumors that their relationship was “broken.” In May, a reporter asked the Jenny from the Block singer about the reports at a press conference in Mexico for her Netflix movie Atlas. She said, “You know better than that.”

He missed her birthday party and was said to have moved his stuff out of the house they shared, which made it clear that things had gone badly in their relationship.

We now know that Lopez and Affleck are no longer together. On Tuesday, Lopez’s ex-boyfriend, former MLB player Alex Rodriguez, posted a mysterious quote to Instagram Stories, which made many people wonder if it was meant to insult Lopez.

“You should choose which way to go, because you’re only going to go one way,” he wrote.

People said that a person said Rodriquez’s post was just a coincidence and “has nothing to do” with Lopez.

Rodriguez and Lopez were together for four years.

“We’ve come to the conclusion that we’re better off as friends and aim to stay that way.” In a joint statement at the time, they said, “We will continue to work together and help each other with our shared businesses and projects.” “May the best things happen to each other and our children.” For their sake, the only other thing we can say is “thank you” to everyone who has sent support and kind words.

Being close to Affleck was seen with the singer soon after her breakup with Rodriguez.
