In breaking news, Jennifer Lopez and husband Ben Affleck are officially parting ways, as confirmed by an entry on the Los Angeles Superior Court docket.
Lopez filed for dissolution of their two-year marriage in Los Angeles on Tuesday, coinciding with the anniversary of their Riceboro, Georgia-set wedding ceremony in 2022 after eloping in Las Vegas a month prior.
The breakup follows reports that the couple had been living separately, Lopez canceled her summer tour to spend time with her family, and they sold their Beverly Hills home.
CNN has reached out to representatives for Lopez and Affleck for comment on this developing story.
Their divorce marks a new chapter in a love story that has captured the public’s attention for decades. Lopez and Affleck’s relationship began more than 20 years ago when they met on the set of the comedy “Gigli.” They eventually reunited in 2021 after both going through marriages and families of their own.
Even the couple seemed overjoyed at their reconciliation, with Affleck expressing his growth as a person in a December 2021 interview with The Wall Street Journal.
Their engagement in 2002 and subsequent split in 2004 were highly publicized, with the couple facing media attention that led to their postponing of their wedding in 2003.
After reuniting in 2021, Lopez described her happiness in being back with Affleck, leading to a second proposal in April 2022. However, recent events have shown the couple spending time on separate coasts, raising questions about the status of their relationship.
Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
