Jennifer Lopez divorce rumors have taken Hollywood by storm, with reports suggesting that the iconic singer has filed to end her marriage with Ben Affleck. This news comes as a shock to fans who had hoped their rekindled romance would stand the test of time. But, what led to this unexpected split, and how are Lopez and Affleck handling the situation?
Here’s a deep dive into the details surrounding the Jennifer Lopez divorce and its potential impact on both stars.
Jennifer Lopez files for divorce from Ben Affleck, claims report
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s relationship has seemingly come to an end, as reports suggest that Lopez has filed for divorce.
According to an E! News report, the divorce filing took place on August 20, 2024, exactly two years after their grand wedding ceremony in Georgia. The couple initially tied the knot in a surprise Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, which was followed by a larger event attended by family and friends.
This shocking divorce filing follows months of speculation and rumors about the couple’s split. Fans noticed that Lopez and Affleck spend significant time apart, fueling the breakup rumors. According to TMZ, the couple listed April 26, 2024, as their official separation date. Earlier this year, they purportedly sold their shared home, and Affleck reportedly purchased a new residence on his own, which only added to the speculation about their impending split.
Lopez and Affleck’s relationship has been a subject of public fascination since the early 2000s when they were famously known as Bennifer. After calling off their initial engagement in 2004, they rekindled their romance in 2021, leading to renewed fan interest. Their reunion inspired Lopez’s ninth studio album, This Is Me… Now, and a semi-fictional film based on their love story.
Despite the optimism surrounding their relationship, the split signals the end of what many viewed as a Hollywood fairy tale. As of now, neither Lopez nor Affleck has commented publicly on the reports, and their representatives have not responded to requests for clarification. The absence of a prenuptial agreement has reportedly complicated the divorce proceedings. The couple has been working on a settlement for several months with little progress, as per reports.
The end of Bennifer 2.0 leaves fans and the public reflecting on their once-iconic romance, feeling disheartened.
