Relationship throughout these years of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez
After meeting on the set of the movie Gigli in 2002, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck started dating. Lopez was reportedly asked to marry Affleck shortly after they started dating. Their wedding was postponed at the time (in 2003) because the pair was receiving too much media coverage.
However, the pair called off their engagement and went their separate ways a few months after the postponement. Although the couple did not give an official explanation for their split, numerous publications strongly conjectured that one of the main reasons was the media attention.
After the actress parted ways with her ex-boyfriend, baseball player Alex Rodriguez, in April of last year, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were once more mentioned as a possible couple. They got engaged in April 2022 after dating for almost a year.
