Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez finally get married. The couple’s legal marriage was registered on Saturday, according to a marriage license found in the online records for Clark County, Nevada. Both of their legal names, Jennifer Lynn Lopez and Benjamin Geza Affleck, are listed on the document. Affleck was legally adopted by Jennifer Lopez, according to the record, which is significant.
Later on Sunday afternoon, Lopez announced her and Affleck’s marriage in a new issue of her “On the JLo” newsletter. We did it! While carrying a bouquet and Affleck kissing her cheek in a black-and-white photo, Lopez wrote.
According to Jennifer Lopez, “Last night we flew to Vegas, stood in line for a license with four other couples, all making the same journey to the wedding capital of the world,”
The performer continued by saying that they “barely made it to the Little White Wedding chapel by midnight,” and concluded her newsletter with sweet enthusiasm writing, “Stick around long enough and maybe you’ll find the best moment of your life in a drive through in Las Vegas at twelve thirty in the morning in the tunnel of love drive through, with your kids and the one you’ll spend forever with. Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things — and worth waiting for.” She signed the letter as “Mrs. Jennifer Lynn Affleck.”
In April, word of Lopez and Affleck’s engagement initially surfaced. The singer and actress, who is wearing a green diamond engagement ring, posted a teary-eyed video for her fans on an episode of “On the JLo.” In a bubble bath, my gorgeous love dropped down on one knee and proposed to me on Saturday night, she said.
In the early 2000s, Jennifer Lopez, 52, and Ben Affleck, 49, were among the most well-known celebrity couples. Together, they produced two movies. The first was “Gigli,” which wasn’t exactly a box office smash in 2003. The pair had already declared their separation by the time Kevin Smith’s “Jersey Girl” debuted in theaters in 2004. Although they never had a legal wedding, the pair had been engaged for a long time.
But Lopez and Affleck got back together around a year ago, and they have appeared to be together ever since. While they were apart, Lopez wed the musician Marc Anthony in 2004 and later divorced him in 2014. In 2005, Affleck wed Jennifer Garner, an actress. 2018 saw the two’s divorce.
Affleck and Lopez both achieved success in their own fields: Affleck received an Oscar for directing the best picture winner “Argo,” and Lopez amassed wealth through music and movie acting. They were once again dating in the public eye a year ago, but they were not subject to the same level of scrutiny from the celebrity press, which has changed and become less critical since the turn of the century.
