Love always finds a way back and that’s what happened with Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck!
17 years for them to each other again after they broke up and created their own families, HeTexted.com reports.
Let me take you on a journey through the rollercoaster of love and Hollywood drama! In 2002, these two lovebirds started their adventure together, all thanks to the movie Gigli.
Affleck couldn’t resist and popped the question to J.Lo, but their love story hit a dead end in 2004.
They both moved on, got hitched, had kids, and then went through the whole divorce ordeal. Of course, they didn’t sit around moping, and they both had their fair share of dating escapades after their splits.
But hold on tight, because in May 2021, just a month after parting ways with Alex Rodriguez, rumors started swirling that JLo and Affleck were rekindling their flame.
And guess what? Fast forward to the summer of 2022, they took the plunge and tied the knot! Now they’re happily navigating the ups and downs of their first year of marriage.
Bennifer Wedding
This couple was one of the first duo to receive a ship name in Hollywood. Everyone called them ‘Bennifer’.
JLo and Ben were engaged once before all this. They were so ready to tie the knot but it happened so fast due to all the media attention they got so they called it quits.
The actress had hinted that Ben was the right person at the wrong time she has mentioned countless times that this relationship wasn’t meant to be public.
However, the relationship was ‘toxic’. In her book True Love, she reminisced about how Ben ‘devastated her spirit’ when he backed out of their meticulously planned 2003 wedding.
And how she reached her lowest point when she discovered he was dating Garner just a few months afterward.
There is this saying that goes ‘To forgive is to forget’ and that is exactly what happened with Bennifer.

Bennifer is opening a new chapter in their lives
Media pressure does not matter for Affleck and Lopez anymore. They seem to be navigating their lives just fine with all the attention they are receiving again.
Bennifer has purchased a $60million mega-mansion and she has given her fans a few little sneak peeks here and there.
Their new nest allegedly boasts 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a 12-car garage, and even a full basketball court. Talk about living large! Good luck furnishing all that space, you’re gonna need it!
And that is exactly what this duo is doing. Just before Thanksgiving Jlo and Ben were spotted furniture shopping and were snuggling next to one another while trying one of the couches in the shop.

All relationships have ups and downs, it is what makes them and breaks them at the same time. So it is completely normal to have a few arguments here and there.
Some people on the internet have been speculating that there might be some issues between the two actors.
During the premiere of Lopez’s movie The Mother in Los Angeles, the couple was caught on camera appearing to have a heated discussion while interacting with fans and posing for photos.
Affleck, who has previously expressed his dislike for public events, seemed unhappy in the footage as he made dramatic gestures with his hands.
Those were just rumors to wipe some dust off the internet as lip readers experts revealed that they were just discussing how they would be moving through the red carpet.

JLO and Ben Affleck are leaving the past behind
The talented 54-year-old artist has just revealed the release date for her highly anticipated album film, This Is Me… Now.
Alongside this exciting news, she also dropped the news that she co-wrote it with her husband, Ben Affleck.
In the captivating trailer, Jennifer is seen sitting in front of a cozy fire while rain pours outside.
She throws a letter into the flames and reflects, “When I was a little girl, whenever someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always… in love.”
The letter, handwritten and dated December 24, 2002, seems to be from Affleck during the early stages of their relationship.
It reads, “Life can be tough, but you bring sweetness to it. Thank you for the gift. I hope you like the flowers. You once told me that you can never have enough. I believe you.” The note is signed simply with a “B.”
