Jennifer Lopez has officially filed for divorce from Ben Affleck after months of split rumors.

The On The Floor hitmaker filed for divorce without an attorney on Tuesday, August 20 — which also marks the couple’s second wedding anniversary.

Lopez — who has been recently seen wearing her wedding ring — listed the date of separation as April 26, 2024, as per legal docs seen by DailyMail.com.

This marks Jennifer’s fourth divorce and Ben’s second.

The couple did not sign a prenuptial agreement before tying the knot in July 2022, insiders told TMZ, who first reported the story.

Without a prenup in place, Jennifer and Ben’s individual earnings from the last two years — whether it be from film projects or major brand deals — would be community property.

Jennifer — who has a reported $400million net worth — has put out four films since marrying Ben, including her $20million self-funded project This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, which documents the couple’s rekindled romance.

She launched her Delola cocktail line in 2023 and she was set to embark on a world tour in support of her latest album This Is Me… Now this year but it was canceled weeks before kick off so she could ‘focus’ on family.

Oscar-winner Ben — who has a reported net worth of $150million — has starred in the films Air (2023) and Hypnotic (2023). He also recently wrapped production of a sequel to 2016’s The Accountant.

To further complicate things, Jennifer and Ben worked on the upcoming film, Unstoppable. While Affleck is producing the project alongside Matt Damon, Lopez is among the film’s stars.

According to TMZ, Jennifer is not seeking spousal support and has asked the judge to deny it for Ben as well.

It’s claimed that Jennifer’s divorce filing comes amid her and Ben’s unresolved battle over money.

According to insiders, the exes have been embroiled in tense settlement talks for months. At times, Jennifer and Ben have stopped speaking to one another entirely.

The couple listed their $68 million Beverly Hills marital home in May — one year after purchasing it for $60million.

After failing to sell it off market, they publicly listed the sprawling property in June.

Days after Jennifer’s 55th birthday in July, Ben closed escrow on a new $20.5million bachelor pad in the Pacific Palisades.

A source recently told Us Weekly that the star’s decision to purchase the abode ‘was the closure of the relationship.’

But it reportedly felt like a ‘stab to the heart’ to Jennifer, who is still on the hunt for a new LA home.

A source close to the star told PEOPLE that she is looking for a ‘fresh start.’

News of Jennifer’s divorce filing comes after DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that divorce documents had been ‘finalized, but not yet turned in.’

The couple have not been pictured publicly together since June 2 but Jennifer was seen leaving his $100,000-per-month Brentwood rental home last week.

She was visiting him on his 52nd birthday along with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 51, and children.

He was notably absent from Jennifer’s lavish Bridgerton-themed 55th birthday celebration in The Hamptons in late July.

Amid the divorce speculation, both Ben and Jen have been spotted with and without their wedding rings in public.

Earlier this month, a source told Page Six that Jennifer was ‘furious’ with Ben and that she has been left ‘humiliated’ by the split.

‘He’s humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago,’ they dished.

‘This is some kind of a record, they’re not young kids.’

The insider explained to Page Six that Lopez is also angry due to their children being involved in the split.

Lopez has formed a close bond with Affleck’s three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12 — and has continued to spend time with them amid the split.

Lopez has 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, 55, who have also grown close to Ben in the last three years.

‘There are five kids involved in this. She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted it is over,’ the source continued.

The source went onto say that Ben was holding off filing for divorce in a bid to ‘protect’ Jennifer.

Earlier this month, TMZ reported that the couple were refusing to talk in person or over the phone. And instead of enlisting the help of lawyers, they have been communicating through their respective business managers.

It was also claimed at the time that the couple had planned to hire divorce lawyers after reaching a settlement.

Jennifer and Ben’s love story dates back to 2002 when they met on set of the box office bomb Gigli (2003). ‘Bennifer’ quickly became a Hollywood ‘It couple.’

But their whirlwind romance came to an end in early 2004, when she and the Armageddon star abruptly called off their engagement.

After 17 years apart and two failed marriages, Ben and Jennifer rekindled their romance in May 2021.

Ben popped the question in April 2022 with a stunning green diamond engagement ring.

While they were yet to know about their looming box office failure, Bennifer were in front of the camera once more in 2002 as they reunited to shoot the 2004 movie Jersey Girl.

The movie was where their love was cemented and the couple’s romance was born.

Their name was in fact born on-set, as Jersey Girl director Kevin Smith said: ‘Bennifer’ is trending.

‘It’s a name I first gave the kids during ‘Jersey Girl’ pre-production, before the world found out they were dating…

‘I’d later drop the name in an interview with the @nytimes. Shortly thereafter, it appeared in the article and then entered the vernacular.’

2002 ONWARD  

The duo made their red carpet debut at the premiere of her movie Maid In Manhattan.

From red carpet appearances to Juicy Couture tracksuits, they soon became one of the world’s most photographed couples thanks to their Hollywood good looks and glamorous style.

Ben popped the question to Jennifer with an eye-popping 6.1-carat pink solitaire diamond from Harry Winston during a visit to see his family in Boston – leading to a delighted surprise.

She described the proposal, saying: ‘It’s just a blanket, a quilt of rose petals, all over the whole entire house. So many candles, and vases, bouquets.

‘And my song I’m Glad was playing… I walk in and I was just like overwhelmed. I wasn’t expecting it, and I was just like ‘Oh my God.”

Ben then revealed his mother Christopher Anne Boldt helped him with the proposal, after which Jennifer said: ‘I just started sobbing. Crying. I was like ‘Oh! My God!”

She went on: ‘I had cried a lot over sadness over the years. And for the first time in my life, I cried incredible purging tears of happiness…

‘It was the most cleansing feeling and the most wonderful feeling I had ever had.’

Later that month, Ben appeared in Jennifer’s Jenny From The Block music video including one scene – designed to look like a stealth paparazzi video – showing the actor caressing her famous derriere.

Not content with a video cameo, Jennifer dedicated her sensual and gushing track Dear Ben from her third studio album This Is Me… Then to her husband-to-be.

Days before their highly-publicized wedding, the couple astounded fans when they announced a postponement due to increasingly feverish media attention.

Their statement read: ‘Due to the excessive media attention surrounding our wedding, we have decided to postpone the date…

‘When we found ourselves seriously contemplating hiring three separate ‘decoy brides’ at three different locations, we realized that something was awry…

‘We began to feel that the spirit of what should have been the happiest day of our lives could be compromised.

‘We felt what should have been a joyful and sacred day could be spoiled for us, our families and our friends.’

Later that year, Jennifer sought comfort in her longtime friend, Marc Anthony, explaining: ‘[I wanted to] find someone who could make me feel loved and wanted in my loneliest hour…

‘Thinking back, maybe deep down I knew that this was a Band-Aid on the cut.’

She married the singer that June and went on to have twins with the star in 2008. She divorced Marc in 2014.

Ben meanwhile wed actress Jennifer Garner in 2005 and they share three children, Violet, 15, Seraphina, 12, and Samuel, 9. The couple split in 2018.

Ben made it clear that they very much remained friends, when he told The Hollywood Reporter: ‘We don’t have the kind of relationship where she relies on me for advice but we do have the kind of relationship where there’ll be an e-mail saying, ‘Oh, your movie looks great’…

‘I remember when she got American Idol. I said, ‘This was really smart. Good luck.”

‘I respect her. I like her. She’s put up with some stuff that was unfair in her life, and I’m really pleased to see her successful.’

2014

Two years later, Jennifer told Huffington Post: ‘I would do it all over again, I think. I really would. Even the relationship part.

‘I just feel like everything is part of your story and your journey and is meant to be and helps you grow if you’re willing to look at it, and I’m willing to look.’

‘Exactly what we wanted. 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. Behind us two men held hands and held each other. In front of us, a young couple who made the three hour drive from Victorville on their daughter’s second birthday—all of us wanting the same thing— for the world to recognize us as partners and to declare our love to the world through the ancient and nearly universal symbol of marriage.

‘We barely made it to the little white wedding chapel by midnight. They graciously stayed open late a few minutes, let us take pictures in a pink Cadillac convertible, evidently once used by the king himself (but if we wanted Elvis himself to show, that cost extra and he was in bed).

‘So with the best witnesses you could ever imagine, a dress from an old movie and a jacket from Ben’s closet, we read our own vows in the little chapel and gave one another the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives. They even had Bluetooth for a (short) march down the aisle. But in the end it was the best possible wedding we could have imagined. One we dreamed of long ago and one made real (in the eyes of the state, Las Vegas, a pink convertible and one another) at very, very long last.

‘When love is real, the only thing that matters in marriage is one another and the promise we make to love, care, understand, be patient, loving and good to one another. We had that. And so much more. Best night of our lives. Thank you to the Little White Wedding chapel for letting me use the break room to change while Ben changed in the men’s room.

‘They were right when they said, ‘all you need is love’. We are so grateful to have that in abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more reason to look forward to. 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.’

The content included a video of Ben preparing for their nuptials inside the chapel’s pink bathroom.

‘And this was my wedding changing area!’ Ben, wearing a white suit, declared as he held the camera up to a scratched-up mirror.

The couple collectively known as ‘Bennifer’ obtained a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada on Saturday and exchanged vows in a ‘super small’ ceremony.

Jennifer will also be taking Affleck’s last name. The Clark County Recorder’s Office shows the pop star will be changing her name to ‘Jennifer Affleck.’ The marriage certificate, however, has yet to be filed.

Marriage officiants have 10 calendar days to submit the certificate to their office for filing, according to the Clark County Clerk’s Office.
