After just over two years of marriage, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have filed for divorce, writes The Guardian.
According to a report from Variety magazine, Lopez filed on Tuesday in Los Angeles county superior court. The official separation date is listed as 26 April.
The pair married in Las Vegas in July 2022 after re-sparking their relationship from two decades prior. Lopez, 55, and Affleck, 52, started a relationship in the early 2000s which the tabloids dubbed “Bennifer” at the time.
“Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” wrote Lopez in announcing their first, quickie Las Vegas wedding that July, and signing off as Jennifer Lynn Affleck.
After their Las Vegas nuptials, the two married again in a lavish ceremony in Georgia on 20 August 2022 – exactly two years ago.
The dissolution of their marriage follows reports that the two had been living separately. The pair had sold their Beverly Hills home and, in May, Lopez announced on her website that she was “heartsick and devastated” to be cancelling her This Is Me … Live summer tour.
