Hollywood singer Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce from actor Ben Affleck after two years of marriage, ending weeks of speculation of the fairytale romance ending.
The duo, affectionately called ‘Bennifer’, have had a whirlwind relationship since the early 2000s, when they became engaged after Affleck gave Lopez an engagement ring featuring a 6.1-carat pink diamond. However, in 2003, the couple announced their separation. They both married other partners and had children.
The two rekindled their relationship in 2021 and got married in July 2022 in Las Vegas.
Hollywood couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are in the news again, this time for buying fancy houses. The power couple are looking for a house in New York city.
Indian media reports the pair own a huge mansion is Los Angeles’ Beverly Hills, which used to belong to Indian business leaders Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal. The mansion is massive, covering 38,000 square feet. It has 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, and lots of fancy things like an indoor pickleball court, gym, salon, spas, and a 155-foot-long infinity pool. Outside, there’s a kitchen and big lawns, great for throwing fancy parties.
Jennifer and Ben supposedly bought the Los Angeles mansion last June for a whopping $61 million (about INR5 billion). Before this, Ben had a house in Pacific Palisades that he sold for $28.5 million in 2022. Jennifer also sold her Bel-Air estate for $34 million last October.
It’s interesting that the Los Angeles mansion meant a lot to its old owners, Isha and Anand. They got married in 2018 and spent a lot of time there when Isha was pregnant in 2022. They had their twins, Krishna and Aditya, in November of that year.
The Los Angeles mansion holds special memories for the Ambani-Piramal family, but Jennifer and Ben are ready to make new ones in their fancy new home. As they look for a house in New York City, fans are excited to see where they’ll live next. This marks another exciting chapter for one of Hollywood’s most famous couples.
Ben and Jennifer, known affectionately as Bennifer, started dating in the early 2000s. They got engaged but broke up. More than twenty years later, during the pandemic, they got back together and got married in 2022.
Hollywood stars Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s daughter, Violet, subtly demonstrated her support for Palestine while she was out shopping with her mother.
The two were captured at the Chanel Store in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, on Tuesday where Violet wore a black “freedom melon crewneck” from Wear The Peace ($38) with an image of a watermelon.
Watermelons usually symbolise solidarity with Palestine, especially as Israel has launched operations against Gaza.
According to Page Six, the clothing company’s website claims that 100 percent of the profits from the sweater purchase goes to aid for Gaza.
After the picture went viral on the internet, people have been commending the mother-daughter duo under Jennifer Garner’s post.
Singer Jennifer Lopez and actor Ben Affleck are now married, a year after rekindling their romance.
The duo obtained a license to get married in Las Vegas, a local official said Sunday. The marriage license was issued by Clark County in the state of Nevada dated Saturday, July 16, according to document details posted online by the county clerk’s office.
“I can confirm that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez obtained a married license last night, but their marriage certificate has not yet been filed,” she said in a statement to Reuters.
Celebrity website TMZ and People Magazine, among other outlets, reported the Affleck and Lopez had wed. People Magazine, citing a source, said the couple had married during a small, private ceremony.
Affleck and Lopez, a glamorous duo widely known as “Bennifer,” got back together last year after almost 20 years. They got engaged in April of this year.
In 2002 Affleck gave Lopez a large 6.1-carat pink diamond engagement ring, but they abruptly called off their wedding in 2003 and split up a few months later.
In her first Instagram post since the report of her marriage surfaced, the Lopez posted her picture with a cryptic post.
Lopez confirmed her marriage to Ben Affleck in her “On The JLo” newsletter and shares multiple pictures of the ceremony.
“We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” the “Marry Me” actress began as she gushed over her nuptials.
Calling the Vegas ceremony “Exactly what we wanted,” the star detailed their trip down the aisle.
“Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world. Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.
“We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight,” she revealed. “They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).”
Lopez added that she wore “a dress from an old movie” as they exchanged vows in the “little chapel” and “gave one another the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives.”
Both Lopez and Affleck were seen in two films together, 2003 romantic comedy Gigli and 2004’s Jersey Girl. According to Variety, the pair has ever since then dubbed as “Bennifer” by tabloids that briefly followed their relationship. In those two decades away from each other, Lopez, 52, and Affleck, 49, got married to different partners — Marc Anthony for the Maid in Manhattan actor and Jennifer Garner for Affleck — but they both got divorced.
Affleck won an Oscar for producing film Argo while Lopez made a fortune as a judge for music show American Idol and acting in movies while also releasing music. Just a year ago the pair found themselves back together after Lopez split with ex fiancé Alex Rodriguez after being together for four years.
Ever since the couple has rekindled their romance, Twitter has been cheering on their reunion as they made series of red carpet appearances together be it the Venice Film Festival or film premieres for The Last Duel or Marry Me, Lopez’s latest romantic comedy starring Owen Wilson and singer Maluma.
Hollywood celebrity and The “Good Will Hunting” Actor Ben Affleck said that Robin William’s impact on his life was undeniable.
Williams was his inspiration and he hero-worshipped the late actor. Robin William was a Hollywood actor and comedian, known for his superb acting and comedy skills.
“I loved Robin. He was the first person that I really met or knew who was, like, ‘famous’,” he said.
The most impressive part about Robin Williams career is that he ruled the stage and got three Oscars in a row.
“I mean, he did so much for us by believing in us and also by how warm and lovely and kind he was and collaborative.”
Explaining Williams’ impact on him, Affleck said, “I wish I had known him my whole life.”
“Growing up, I didn’t have that opportunity, but when I did meet him, I was a pretty young guy; I was 24. It made a massive impression on me and I thought, ‘Okay, that’s how you do this. I’m going to spend my life trying to live up to this example.’”
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have given their fans and the media the much awaited confirmation of their romantic patch-up.
Rumour mills were buzzing that the couple reunited in May after they were spotted holidaying together in Montana.
Now, in a video shared by Page Six, the couple can been seen nuzzling each other’s necks and sharing kisses in public during their romantic getaway in Malibu.
In the early 2000s, Lopez and Affleck were one of Hollywood’s most famous couples. They regularly made headlines after a high-profile engagement in 2002 and also collaborated on feature films such as Jersey Girl and Gigli.
Their relationship came to an end in January 2004, shortly after they postponed their wedding.
Affleck went on to marry Jennifer Garner which ended up in divorce, while Lopez recently announced her separation from fiancé Alex Rodriguez.
The couple has been spotted at various locations over the last few weeks.
Matt Damon has said that it would be “awesome” if his best friend Ben Affleck and his ex-beau Jennifer Lopez are really back together.
When asked on the Today show about Ben and Lopez’s latest photographs, Damon at first said: “There’s not enough liquor in the world for you to get me to say something about that.”
However, he later admitted that like the rest of the world, he too, would love to see the exes give their relationship a chance again.
“I love them both,” said the Oscar winner. “I hope it’s true. That would be awesome.”
Earlier this week, the Daily Mail published photos which showed Affleck, 48, and Lopez, 51, heading to the airport in Montana together and then arriving in Los Angeles. According to details, the two celebrities — who broke off their very public engagement back in 2004 — attended a party together at a luxury ski resort in Montana. It is believed that Affleck owns a chalet there. Reports have also claimed that the two spent “about a week” together at the club and “were alone” during their stay.
While it was earlier reported that the two were just reconnecting as old friends after Lopez’s recent breakup with Alex Rodriguez, the Montana trip has sparked rumours that the two are perhaps more than “just friends”. It has been reported that the two reconnected over email when Affleck reached out to J Lo while she was in the Dominican Republic, writing that she looked beautiful in her recent photographs for Shotgun Wedding. The pair reportedly continued communications over the next couple of weeks.
Affleck and Lopez were engaged in 2002 and dubbed “Bennifer.” Their relationship appeared to hit the rocks in 2003 when they postponed their wedding and ultimately broke up in January 2004. After their split, Lopez married Marc Anthony in 2004 with the couple welcoming twins in 2008. On the other hand, Affleck married Garner in 2005 and the two welcomed three children together. Lopez later divorced Anthony in 2014, while Affleck and Garner divorced in 2018.
Meanwhile, Rodriguez is said to be “shocked” with Lopez and Affleck’s photographs, as he reportedly believed that he and Lopez would get back together after a break.
“A-Rod is shocked that J Lo has moved on,” reported E! News. “He truly thought they would be able to make it work and reconnect. He has been reaching out to J Lo trying to meet with her and she has been very short with him.”
Jennifer Lopez with Alex Rodriguez
The report, quoting a source, further said that Rodriguez is “saddened” by Lopez’s vacation with Affleck, so much so that he’s reached out to her to let her know “he’s upset.”
However, Jennifer is “not interested in rekindling anything with A-Rod and is done”.
Jennifer Lopez, who recently called off her engagement with Alex Rodriguez after four years together, was spotted hanging out with ex-beau Ben Affleck. Lopez and Affleck dated from 2002 to 2004 and their relationship also ended with a broken engagement.
According to reports, the couple formerly known as ‘Bennifer,’ spent an entire week in Los Angeles. Despite having split up for more than seventeen years, the duo was spotted spending time together at Lopez’s LA mansion. The Oscar winner was photographed multiple times going to J Lo’s California home during the day after having been picked up in a white Escalade SUV that allegedly belongs to Lopez.
While the pair have not been spotted together, Page Six reported that “security picks him [Affleck] up at a nearby location and drops him off after spending a few hours at her house.”
“They have spent time together in L.A. over the past week,” reported People Magazine. “They have a lot of love for each other. They have always admired each other.”
Meanwhile, an insider reportedly shut down rumours of a rekindling romance, saying that the duo have “always been friends and they have seen each other through the years.”
Affleck and Lopez were engaged in 2002 but they postponed their wedding in 2003. They split months later in January 2004. Lopez called her breakup with Affleck “probably my first big heartbreak.”
It has also been reported that J Lo has been seeing famous friends after her breakup with Rodriguez. She allegedly also met up with another ex Marc Anthony.
