Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s whirlwind romance has captivated audiences for over two decades, evolving from a high-profile relationship to a rekindled love story that ultimately led to marriage and, now, divorce. Recently, Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck, marking the end of their marriage just shy of two years. This turn of events follows a long and storied relationship between the two superstars, who once again find themselves making headlines, but for reasons that many had not anticipated.

The Divorce Filing

As part of her divorce filing, obtained by CNN, Lopez is seeking to restore her name to "Jennifer Lynn Lopez," reverting from the married name "Jennifer Lynn Affleck." The filing highlights that the marriage officially ended on April 26, 2024, signaling a 21-month-long marriage that followed their much-anticipated Georgia wedding in 2022. Lopez cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their split.

Rumors of trouble between Lopez and Affleck began circulating earlier in the year when it became apparent that the couple was living on opposite coasts over the summer. Lopez, for instance, celebrated her birthday in July with a lavish Bridgerton-themed party. Notably, Affleck was absent from the event, further fueling speculation about the state of their marriage.
