Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez

We all enjoy celebrity romances, but the reuniting of former flames is more intriguing to some degree. That’s why fans were ecstatic when Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck made their restored relationship Instagram public in July 2021, confirming months of rumors that they’d restarted their epic love story. The singer’s breakup from Alex Rodriguez in April sparked the talks, and it appears the actor wasted little time in getting her back.

If you’re unfamiliar with the entire narrative, we’ll take you back to 2001, when the two met for the first time during Gigli. The film, sadly, underperformed at the box office, but the chemistry between the two was apparent. Their high-profile relationship drew a lot of media attention, prompting the establishment of the celebrity couple name Bennifer. The pair officially ended by January 2004, much to everyone’s dismay. In 2021, it appears that they both became single at the same time.
