Jennifer Lopez has filed for divorce from Ben Affleck after nearly two years of marriage. The divorce, filed without legal representation, comes on the symbolic second anniversary of their Georgia wedding. With no prenuptial agreement in place, the couple faces complex financial negotiations as they part ways.
Jennifer Lopez has officially filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, marking the end of their nearly two-year marriage. The filing, submitted on August 20, 2024, in Los Angeles County Superior Court, was notably done without legal representation, as Lopez opted to handle the proceedings herself.
The date of their separation is listed as April 26, 2024, though the timing of the divorce filing seems particularly symbolic. August 20 marks the second anniversary of their formal wedding ceremony in Georgia, making the date significant in the couple's history.
Surprisingly, no prenuptial agreement was in place, despite both stars' substantial earnings during their marriage. This could lead to complex financial negotiations, as all earnings made during their union are considered community property under California law. Lopez and Affleck have both had successful careers during this time, starring in several high-profile films
The couple’s split has been brewing for some time, with mounting tension over financial settlements. They had already put their marital home on the market and begun living separately. Although talks over money matters continue, the divorce filing indicates a clear intent to move forward independently, even as unresolved financial disputes linger.
The dissolution of their marriage marks the end of a high-profile relationship that once captivated fans and media alike.
