Jennifer Lopez had PTSD Before Wedding to Ben Affleck: What Happened?
On Wednesday, the 53-year-old singer explained to Jimmy Kimmel how she doubted her marriage to Affleck would hold. JLo and the actor were once engaged, but it “fell apart.” During her talk on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Lopez recalled how happy they were despite being stressed out.
Because of the little PTSD the Grammy winner had, Lopez noted that their first wedding in July 2022 in Las Vegas was the Justice League actor’s idea. The songwriter explained how “one day Ben just said, ‘F–k it, let’s just go to Vegas and get married tonight.” The 50-year-old actor had everything under control and just needed the Let’s Get Loud singer to get ready.
One month after the couple tied the knot in Vegas, they went ahead to have an official wedding in front of family and friends in Georgia. The couple has been all over each other because they were able to rekindle their love again after so many years apart. The Marry Me actress and Deep Water actor were previously from 2002 to 2004 but rekindled their romance in 2021. The dancer had just gotten out of an engagement with Alex Rodriguez when the couple’s romance rekindled.
Have Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Had Other Spouses?
The Shotgun Wedding actress was formerly married to Marc Antony, with whom she shares 14-year-old twins Emme and Maximilian. After Lopez and Affleck’s broken engagement in 2004, the Golden Globe Award winner married Jennifer Garner in 2005 and split in 2015. Affleck and Garner share three children; 17-year-old Violet, 14-year-old Seraphina, and 10-year-old Samuel.
During the Jimmy Kimmel interview, Lopez recounted Affleck’s proposal to her in April 2022. According to the dancer, she was in the bathtub when the Academy Award winner proposed to her with a green Diamond ring.
In a November interview with Vogue, the Pearl Harbor star could not help but gush about his “second-chance romance” with the singer. Affleck said that in Lopez, he sees “someone who has retained, against the odds, the thing about her that always made her the most incredible to me.” At the end of the day, love always wins.
