Details
Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce in Los Angeles Superior Court, according to court documents. The petition was filed on the second anniversary of the lavish wedding, which the couple celebrated at Mr. Affleck's home in Georgia.
The on-and-off relationship between Lopez, a 55-year-old singer and actress, and Affleck, a 52-year-old actor and director, has been a pop culture fascination since the early 2000s.
The couple began dating during the filming of the 2003 romantic comedy Gigli. Although the movie was not released, the relationship between its stars became the most popular romance of the summer. They got engaged in 2002, but postponed the wedding until the following year, citing the media hype surrounding their union.
But in 2004, the couple divorced and moved on to other relationships: Lopez married singer Marc Anthony in 2004, and Mr. Affleck married actress Jennifer Garner in 2005. (Both marriages ended in divorce).
In the spring of 2021, the tabloids were filled with headlines that Lopez and Affleck were getting back together. In July 2022, the superstars got married in a midnight ceremony in Las Vegas, in a pink Cadillac convertible. In August, they celebrated their wedding with family and friends in Georgia.
But this year, their relationship came under scrutiny again. In May, Lopez suddenly canceled her summer tour, the ticket sales for which were in question. In July, the couple's Beverly Hills mansion was put up for sale for $68 million.
Recall
In May, Ben Affleck was photographed leaving a separate home in Brentwood, Los Angeles, fueling rumors of a possible divorce. And in July, it was reported that Ben Affleck purchased a $20.5 million home in Los Angeles after moving out of the mansion he shared with Jennifer Lopez. This indicates a crisis in the couple's relationship and a possible divorce.
