The iconic couple calls it quits once more.
In a heartbreaking turn for fans of the iconic couple, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are officially ending their marriage after just two years together. The couple, who rekindled their romance 22 years after their initial engagement, have decided to part ways once again.
Lopez, 54, filed for divorce on Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing April 26, 2024, as the date of separation. The actress and singer, who filed without legal representation, requested that both she and Affleck, 51, waive spousal support. According to TMZ, the couple did not have a prenuptial agreement.
The news comes exactly two years after their lavish wedding ceremony in Georgia on August 20, 2022, which followed a more intimate elopement in Las Vegas a month prior.

The couple first met in 2002 on the set of the critically panned film Gigli and quickly became one of Hollywood‘s most talked-about pairs. Despite their whirlwind romance and subsequent engagement, the intense media scrutiny ultimately led to their first split in 2004. Lopez and Affleck each moved on to other marriages—Lopez with Marc Anthony and Affleck with Jennifer Garner—before rekindling their relationship in 2021.

In a 2022 interview with PEOPLE, Lopez reflected on their revived romance, noting how both had grown and learned from their previous experiences. “We’re older now, we’re smarter, we have more experience, we’re at different places in our lives,” she said.
Despite their efforts, the couple’s relationship has faced challenges over the past year, with reports suggesting they were living apart and attending events separately. As they navigate this difficult time, fans are left to reflect on the end of an era for Bennifer 2.0.
