Affleck, 52, and Lopez, 55, reignited their romance in 2021, nearly two decades after their first high-profile relationship, which earned them the nickname "Bennifer" in the early 2000s. The couple initially tied the knot in a spontaneous Las Vegas wedding in July 2022, followed by a more extravagant ceremony in Georgia on August 20, 2022.
Despite the fairytale nature of their rekindled romance, the couple’s relationship began to show signs of strain. Reports surfaced that the two had been living separately, and they recently sold their Beverly Hills home. In May, Lopez announced the cancellation of her "This Is Me ... Live" summer tour, citing personal reasons and expressing her heartbreak over the situation. The tour was intended to promote her first solo album in a decade, This Is Me ... Now, which was deeply inspired by her relationship with Affleck.
The pair first met in 2001 while filming the movie Gigli, where they portrayed criminals working together on a job. Their on-screen chemistry quickly turned into a real-life romance, capturing the attention of media and fans alike. The couple became engaged in November 2002, but their relationship was short-lived. Their planned September 2003 wedding was postponed, and they officially parted ways in January 2004.
Both stars moved on to other marriages—Lopez to singer Marc Anthony in 2004 and Affleck to actress Jennifer Garner in 2005. Lopez and Anthony ended their marriage in 2011, while Affleck and Garner announced their separation in 2015.
In April 2021, fans of the couple were thrilled when Affleck and Lopez were seen together in Los Angeles, sparking rumors of a rekindled romance. The two became engaged once again in 2022, leading to their brief second marriage.
As they go their separate ways, the end of Bennifer 2.0 marks the conclusion of a love story that has captivated the public for over two decades.
