She told People, “I feel so lucky and happy and proud to be with him.” The singer described her relationship with Ben Affleck with these words: “It’s a beautiful love story that we got a second chance.” The star couple made their relationship Instagram official on JLo’s birthday last year.

Here’s a little background of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s dating history. The Gigli co-stars were engaged back in 2002. However, it ended in a split two years later. JLo and Ben Affleck were married (and divorced) to Marc Anthony and Jennifer Garner, respectively. They also broke up with their respective partners last year. JLo was previously dating Alex Rodriguez, while Ben Affleck was with actress Ana de Armas.

The rumour mills about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck started when they were spotted on a vacation of sorts in Montana in mid 2021. The couple were reportedly spotted at JLo’s Miami beach house as well. Also, they were reports of the couple sneaking in kisses in the middle of workout sessions.
