Celebrity couples come and go. And my don’t we love to hear about the couples that break up, like Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson or Kendall Jenner and Devin Booker?
But also we love to drool about those couples who stay together through all the trials and tribulations of a showbiz life, like the Beckhams, Ozzy and Sharon or Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness.
Even in the weird world of mega-stars, sometimes it really does seem that true love can conquer all.
That’s why we’ve all been so gripped by the amazing on-off love story of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. Here are two huge stars with their own separate careers and fortunes.
Ben is that wild boy Hollywood star who famously grew up on the East Coast of the US alongside childhood pal Matt Damon in Boston. Since then Ben’s biggest roles are in the smash hit movies Good Will Hunting and Batman.
His career as an actor, director and screenwriter has helped him amass a fortune believed to be around $150 million. He’s known to work and play hard – and is known to love baseball, basketball… and for being one of the most famous poker players in the world.
With two Puerto Rican parents J-Lo had a different upbringing in New York and showed great dedication to work her way into a dancing, musical and acting career.
Her highlights have included starring in the movie the The Wedding Planner and having her debut album going platinum six times. She is famous for once having her curvy rear parts insured for $27million.
So are these two different celebrities ideally matched or not? Their long timetable of romance gives a few clues:
The couple first dated in a blaze of publicity 20 years ago. The two seemed to cement their bond by working together.
They shared the screen in films like Gigli and Jersey Girl. Ben even appeared in one of J-Lo’s music videos.
They got engaged and his $2.5 million engagement ring to her was shown all over the world’s gossip pages. They were even given the ultimate celebrity accolade of a joint nickname name: Bennifer.
But then the relationship seemed to dissolve as publically as it had started. They called off their wedding at very short notice – and then ended their whole relationship – in 2004.
Maybe it was the excessive media attention that had deflated their romance. At once stage the couple were planning to use three different decoy brides at three different locations to divert hysterical press coverage.
Whatever drove them apart back then, they spent much of the next two decades with other partners. They both married someone else within a couple of years and started families.
Unknown to the world, however, the two had been keeping in regular touch with each other.
Then in 2021 the world press gleefully stumbled on the fact that they were openly seeing each other again. It looked like they’d amazingly been able to pick up right where they’d left off all those years earlier.
The Bennifer II romance seemed to start after Jennifer split from fiancé Alex Rodriguez in Spring 2021. At first the old lovers seemed to be comforting each other as friends – and then we started learning more.
She celebrated her 52nd birthday with an Instagram shot of her and 48-year-old Affleck kissing passionately on a luxury yacht.
The romance had rekindled! The next we knew was that Ben and J-Lo were finally getting married in July 2022.
It was a surprisingly low-key wedding – and even though it was in Las Vegas, it was without all the expected Hollywood razmataz.
Romantically the details of the marriage certificate suggest that Jennifer will take Ben’s surname following the ceremony. Stay tuned for the debut of Jennifer Affleck…
Perhaps one of the keys to their relationship dates right back to start. They met on the set of Gigli in 2001.
She was married and at first they were just friends, not lovers. They found they had a lot in common, including very similar family values.
In fact their families get on really well. J-Lo’s mother is reported to adore Affleck.
Meanwhile Affleck’s mum once helped him stage a very romantic proposal to Jennifer, carpeting their house with rose petals as a welcome-home surprise. J-Lo later said it was one of the best moments of her life.
The couple have created huge separate careers. Ben mainly works in LA, Jennifer in Miami.
But they have matured since their first fiery romance and seem more sober about their life choices now. The couple are talking about making sure it lasts this time.
Their families have been mixing and they have been spending lots of time in each other’s homes on the different coasts. The latest gossip reports are that the couple are planning to find a new home… together.
So will it last this time? Celebrity romances are notoriously fickle.
The biggest public declarations of adoration usually lead to the biggest public break-ups shortly after. But it is rare for a couple to rekindle a romance after such a long break.
Ben and Jennifer always spoke kindly of each other during their years apart though. And who knows how often they saw each other in that period?
Perhaps this could be the one Hollywood romance that really recovers. Most of the world is hoping that this really could be for keeps second time round.
