Los Angeles, August 21, 2024, The Europe Today: Hollywood power couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are divorcing after two years of marriage, according to court documents filed by Lopez on Tuesday in the Los Angeles County Superior Court.
Lopez and Affleck, who were famously dubbed “Bennifer” by tabloids, rekindled their romance nearly two decades after their first engagement. The pair initially met while working together on the 2003 film Gigli and became one of the most talked-about couples of the early 2000s. They had originally planned to marry in 2003 but called off their relationship in early 2004.
The couple officially tied the knot in a private ceremony in Las Vegas in July 2022, followed by a larger celebration with family and friends in Georgia the following month. Their reunion and subsequent marriage captured the public’s attention, with fans and media alike celebrating the long-awaited reunion.
The reasons for the divorce have not been disclosed, and representatives for both Lopez and Affleck have yet to comment on the matter. The divorce filing marks the end of a highly publicized relationship that spanned two decades, marked by both a high-profile split and a much-publicized reconciliation.
