Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce from Ben Affleck after two years of marriage, according to court documents.

Lopez and Affleck, who were engaged before their high-profile separation in 2004, wedded in Las Vegas in July 2022.

The Standard reports that Lopez filed court filings at the LA County Superior Court on Tuesday, commemorating the second anniversary of the separated couple’s traditional wedding ceremony in Georgia.

The divorce petition put an end to months of conjecture about their marital status.

It should be recalled that Lopez and Affleck got engaged in 2002 and became one of Hollywood’s most talked-about couples, christened “Bennifer” by the media.

They were due to tie the knot in September 2003 but postponed the wedding just days before the ceremony. The couple finally called off their engagement in January 2004.

Lopez later declared it as “the biggest heartbreak of my life”.

The actress-turned-musician officially confirmed she was back together with Affleck in an Instagram post for her 52nd birthday, when she shared a picture of them kissing while on a private yacht.

In April 2022, 18 years after the couple originally called off their nuptials, Lopez announced she was again engaged to Affleck.

She shared a video of herself crying with joy on social media while admiring a sparkling green engagement ring.

The couple’s rekindled relationship inspired Lopez’s 2024 album titled This Is Me…Now and accompanying genre-defying musical extravaganza, which featured Affleck alongside stars including Jane Fonda, Sofia Vergara and Post Malone.

Affleck is Lopez’s fourth husband, whose most notable marriage was to fellow singer Marc Anthony – with whom she shares 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme.

Representatives for Lopez and Affleck have been contacted for comment.
