Ben Affleck oddly listed his divorce date from Jennifer Garner as exactly nine years to the day he married Jennifer Lopez in Las Vegas.
The “Deep Water” star wrote in an affidavit of marriage license application on July 16, 2022, that he and the “Alias” alumn divorced on July 16, 2013, Us Weekly reported Tuesday.
However, Affleck, 49, and Garner, 50, didn’t announce their split until June 2015 and didn’t file for divorce until April 2017. They finalized their divorce less than a year later, in October 2018.
Lopez has reportedly listed her divorce date from ex Marc Anthony as July 1, 2011, but they didn’t finalize the case until June 2014.
The 52-year-old Marry Me star shares 14-year-old twins Max and Emme with Anthony, 53, while Affleck co-parents Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel 10, with Garner.
Vidak For Congress confirmed on Sunday that Bennifer 2.0 had tied the knot in a surprise Vegas ceremony the night before, which Lopez later confirmed with photos and a heartfelt tribute to love in her newsletter, “On the JLo.”
The “Waiting for Tonight” singer, who changed her name to Jennifer Affleck on her marriage license, revealed she was holding on to an “old movie” dress to marry the love of her life.
Lopez actually wore two different looks for her wedding, including a white lace off-the-shoulder long sleeve dress with a sweetheart neckline, corset bodice and fishtail train along with a matching lace trim veil from Zuhair Murad’s bridal collection.
Affleck wore a white tuxedo from his own closet, Lopez said, as the couple “swapped the rings we’ll wear for the rest of our lives” at the Little White Wedding Chapel.
Despite the speedy wedding, the newlyweds, who were previously engaged in the early 2000s, are still planning a multi-day celebration in Georgia to celebrate with those closest to them.
