Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Split: Divorce Filed on Their Wedding Anniversary Amidst Strained Relationship

Ben Affleck has been in the news recently due to his highly publicized split from Jennifer Lopez. On August 20, 2024, Jennifer Lopez officially filed for divorce from Affleck, marking the end of their nearly two-year marriage. Interestingly, she chose to file on the second anniversary of their wedding celebration in Georgia, which some sources suggest was a symbolic move indicating that she was ready to move on.

The couple's relationship had been under strain for some time, with reports indicating that Affleck was not actively trying to repair the marriage, leading to increasing tensions. Despite their efforts, including Lopez visiting Affleck on his birthday just a week before the filing, they could not reconcile their differences.

Notably, there was no prenuptial agreement in place, which could complicate the division of assets. Lopez also waived spousal support, indicating a desire to expedite the process and move forward independently.

This is Lopez's fourth marriage and Affleck's second, and both had hoped for a different outcome when they rekindled their romance in 2021. However, the challenges proved too significant to overcome, leading to this eventual separation​
