The couple, who did not have a prenuptial agreement, rekindled their relationship in 2021 and married in July 2022 after spending nearly two decades apart.

The decision to divorce follows months of speculation about the state of their marriage. 

In May, rumors began circulating that Lopez and Affleck were heading for a split, with reports suggesting that the couple had not been seen together in weeks. Additionally, it was reported that Affleck had moved out of their shared home, which was subsequently put up for sale. 

 In spite of their best efforts to reignite the love they once had, it appears that the challenges proved insurmountable.

Reflecting on their journey, Lopez had previously described their Las Vegas wedding as a dream come true, stating,

“It was the best possible wedding we could have imagined. One we dreamed of long ago, and one made real.” 

 However, their decision to part ways serves as a reminder that sometimes, despite the best intentions, it is necessary to prioritize personal well-being over staying in a relationship that no longer brings joy. 

 It seems that moving forward separately is the path they have chosen for the sake of their own peace and future happiness.
