Bennifer, the on-again, off-again relationship between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, has officially come to an end for the second time, as Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck after two years of marriage. Their relationship, which dates back to the early 2000s, includes various milestones such as engagement, marriage, and children with other partners in between. The timeline of their relationship includes meeting on the set of “Gigli” in 2001, the iconic “Bennifer” era, a postponed wedding in 2003, and eventually breaking up in 2004. Both Lopez and Affleck went on to marry and have children with other partners before rekindling their romance in 2021. They got engaged again in April 2022 and had two wedding ceremonies in Las Vegas and Georgia in 2022.
Following the release of Lopez’s album and movie based on her relationship with Affleck, rumors began circulating in spring 2024 that the couple was facing challenges. These rumors were confirmed when Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024. The couple did not have a prenuptial agreement, making the divorce proceedings potentially complex. Despite their ups and downs, Lopez mentioned in a previous interview that they were working on blending their families and providing support for each other’s children. As the iconic couple navigates yet another split, fans and the media continue to speculate on the reasons behind their latest separation.
