Sorry, hopeless romantics. Nothing lasts forever — and that includes Bennifer 2.0.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are splitting up once again, after two years of marriage and 22 years of history.
According to PEOPLE, Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, listing the date of separation as April 26, 2024. Lopez, 54, filed for divorce herself, without a lawyer. Per TMZ, which first reported the news, there was no prenuptial agreement, and the actress/singer waived spousal support and is asking the judge to deny Affleck spousal support as well.
Though the couple eloped and tied the knot in Vegas on July 16, 2022, Lopez seemingly chose Aug. 20 as a symbolic date — the second anniversary of a more traditional wedding ceremony they held in Georgia.
The former couple first met in 2002 on the set of their panned crime drama Gigli (while Lopez was married to her second husband, Cris Judd), and they were engaged soon after. They also shared the screen in Lopez’s “Jenny From the Block” music video in 2003, and Affleck was the subject of several tracks on her third studio album, This is Me… Then. Alas, the whirlwind romance came to an end before anyone could walk down the aisle.
