Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have officially parted ways. The couple are getting a divorce after two years of marital bliss. 

As per TMZ, JLo filed for divorce without a lawyer on August 20, which is their second wedding anniversary. A source told NBC News that the couple did not have a prenup.

Lopez reportedly filed the divorce papers herself in Los Angeles County Superior Court on August 20 listing April 26, 2024, as the date of separation, Variety reported.

"She tried really hard to make things work and is heartbroken. The kids are a top priority, as they always have been," according to People magazine.

Rumours of marital strife began circulating in May when they spent significant time apart. Lopez was occupied with her movie promotion and upcoming tour, while Affleck remained in Los Angeles to film 'The Accountant 2'.

Their relationship appeared strained as they spent much of the summer on opposite coasts, with Lopez reportedly staying in the Hamptons and Affleck in Los Angeles.

In June, they listed their Beverly Hills mansion for sale, and Affleck subsequently purchased a new USD 20 million home in July. According to People magazine, Lopez and Affleck were no longer residing together, with Lopez reportedly not seeing Affleck for several weeks leading up to the filing.

This is the second time Ben and Jennifer have split. They put off their first wedding in September 2003, nearly two decades before marriage.

Lopez, who met Affleck in 2002 while working on the film Gigli, claimed they weren't "mature enough" to figure out their relationship.

Following their separation, Lopez married musician Marc Anthony, with whom she has twins Max and Emme. They separated in 2011 after seven years of marriage. Jennifer was married to Ojani Noa (1997-1998), and Cris Judd (2001-2003). 

The ‘Argo’ director married Jennifer Garner in 2005. Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel were born to the couple before their separation in 2015. 

Ben and JLo rejoined as a couple in 2021 and married in a surprise Las Vegas ceremony the next year. 

The couple went public with their renewed romance in April 2021, following Lopez's split from former MLB star Alex Rodriguez. 

They made their relationship official on social media in July 2021 and were seen together at the Venice Film Festival that same year.

The couple's marriage began with a surprise wedding in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022, followed by a larger ceremony in Georgia on August 20, 2022.
