Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Spend 2nd Wedding Anniversary Apart Amid Rumored Marriage Trouble
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are rumored to be going through a breakup and headed for divorce, after two years of marriage.
The rumors surrounding Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's speculated marriage trouble continue to heat up. The couple's 2nd wedding anniversary was on Tuesday, July 16, but they spent it apart, with Lopez spending the day biking around the Hamptons on the East Coast while Affleck stayed in Los Angeles.
Lopez and Affleck first dated in the early 2000s, after meeting on the set of the 2001 film Gigli. Dubbed "Bennifer," the couple's relationship was the subject of countless headlines and heavy media scrutiny, which led to paparazzi and tabloid reporters following them around quite frequently.
They split up in 2004, with Lopez later explaining that the constant press coverage was a big part of why Affleck wasn't comfortable continuing their relationship.
