Jennifer Lopez has officially filed for divorce from Ben Affleck after months of split rumors.

The On The Floor hitmaker, 55, filed for divorce without an attorney on Tuesday, August 20 — which also marks the couple’s second wedding anniversary.

Lopez — who has recently been seen wearing her wedding ring — listed the date of separation as April 26, 2024, as per legal docs seen by DailyMail.com.

The couple did not sign a prenuptial agreement before tying the knot in July 2022, insiders have revealed.

This marks Jennifer’s fourth failed marriage and Ben’s second.

DailyMail.com has reached out to reps for Ben and Jennifer for comment.

Without a prenup in place, Jennifer and Ben’s individual earnings from the last two years — whether it be from film projects or major brand deals — are community property.

One major asset the estranged couple will need to agree on is a $60.85 million home in Beverly Hills, California that they purchased last year.

The former couple listed the home – which has 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms – in June for $65 million, then relisted it after making recent renovations for $68 million.

The home in the tony Southern California neighborhood arrived last month of the market after further work was done on the abode, which took Lopez and Affleck two years to pick out.

The mansion spans 38,000 square-feet, and state tax law might play a part in the increased price tag, as California taxes homes sold for a minimum of $10 million with a 5.5 percent charge, TMZ reported last month.

The listing on the abode had been held by The Agency, a real estate firm owned by Bravo personality Mauricio Umansky.

Affleck moved out of the Beverly Hills home and has since plunked down $20.5 million on a mansion in the Pacific Palisades, California.

Both entertainers have worked steadily in the two years they have been wed: Affleck’s projects in that timespan include the 2023 movies Air (which he also directed) and Hypnotic, according to iMDb.

Affleck also made appearances in 2023’s The Flash and 2024’s Jennifer Lopez in This Is Me… Now. He has finished shooting the The Accountant 2, in which he reprises the role of Christian Wolff from the 2016 motion picture.

Other acting projects he has in the works include a film called Witness for the Prosecution, which is in development; and a film titled RIP, which is in the pre-production phase.

Affleck has a number of professional endeavors he’s involved in as a producer, including projects such as the aforementioned The Accountant 2 and Witness for the Prosecution. He is listed as an executive producer on a TV movie called Thirst, a sports drama titled Flash Before the Bang and a Hugh Jackman movie titled Apostle Paul.

Other projects he is listed as a producer on include a film called Keeper of the Lost Cities, which he is slated to direct and star; and the film Animals, which he is slated to direct, which stars his longtime friend Matt Damon.

Two projects clearly complicated by Tuesday’s news are joint ventures he is involved in with Lopez: a musical adaptation of Kiss of the Spider Woman and Unstoppable, both of which she stars in.

Jennifer — who has a reported $400million net worth — has put out four films since marrying Ben, including her $20million self-funded project This Is Me… Now: A Love Story, which documents the couple’s rekindled romance.

She launched her Delola cocktail line in 2023 and she was set to embark on a world tour in support of her latest album This Is Me… Now this year but it was canceled weeks before kick off so she could ‘focus’ on family.

Oscar-winner Ben — who has a reported net worth of $150million — has starred in the films Air (2023) and Hypnotic (2023). He also recently wrapped production of a sequel to 2016’s The Accountant.pre

To further complicate things, Jennifer and Ben worked on the upcoming film, Unstoppable. While Affleck is producing the project alongside Matt Damon, Lopez is among the film’s stars.

In court docs, Lopez said she was waiving spousal support and requested the court not give Affleck any either, according to the outlet.

It’s claimed that Jennifer’s divorce filing comes amid her and Ben’s unresolved battle over money.

Last month, The Blast reported Lopez had been ‘gearing up for a messy divorce’ and that she was aiming at acquiring half of the $150 million Affleck owns.

Lopez had paid many expenses during the two-year marriage, insiders told Radar Online in July, noting that Affleck had ‘grumbled about spending money.’

Sources told Radar Online that amid the parting, Lopez felt that Affleck had ‘mooched’ off of her wealth, and was subsequently ‘demanding a full inventory of what she spent versus what he spent and wants all the money back she “invested.”

‘She isn’t the one who gave up on their marriage and she’s feeling seriously burned and is out for blood.’

The insider noted that Lopez’s pursuit of financial recompense was in direct response to Affleck’s conduct amid the end of the relationship.

‘If he had stayed in the marriage like a good boy, she wouldn’t have minded,’ the source said. ‘But he abandoned her and ultimately, Jennifer always gets payback and now she’s ready to play hardball.’

According to TMZ insiders, the exes have been embroiled in tense settlement talks for months. At times, Jennifer and Ben have stopped speaking to one another entirely.

The source noted to the outlet that ‘one of the little-known secrets is Jennifer paid for much of their marital expenses and now she feels he owes her’ – and is itemizing the expenses she laid out amid the relationship.

Said the source, ‘Ben took so much money out of her, at least that’s what she’s saying … she’s adding up all those private jet bills she puts on her plastic, the hotels, and meals, clothes, coffee runs, gas.

‘The high cost of living was done on her dime. She paid the lion’s share for that $60 million mansion they bought, too.’

According to a piece from the entertainment website Koi Moi earlier this year, the now-estranged pair had a cumulative net worth estimated at $640 million.

Lopez is mother to twins Emme and Maximilian, 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony, 55; while Affleck is father to children Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 52.

Affleck’s demeanor was cited as a reason for the split between the stars, who had famously dated two decades earlier.

‘If people could see what she has really gone through they would be easier on her,’ a source told Dailymail.com last month. ‘Ben is a great guy but he can be grumpy and a downer … if they saw how it really was, they would not attack her.’

The source added, ‘He chain smokes and cusses and seems irritated a lot of the time. Great director and actor, but not a lot of laughs with him, you know? He is a wonderful father though.’

The couple listed their $68 million Beverly Hills marital home in May — one year after purchasing it for $60million.

After failing to sell it off market, they publicly listed the sprawling property in June.

Days after Jennifer’s 55th birthday in July, Ben closed escrow on a new $20.5million bachelor pad in the Pacific Palisades.

A source recently told Us Weekly that the star’s decision to purchase the abode marked the ‘closure of the relationship.’

But it reportedly felt like a ‘stab to the heart’ to Jennifer, who is still on the hunt for a new LA home.

A source close to the star told PEOPLE that she is looking for a ‘fresh start.’

Before Tuesday’s divorce filing, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that documents had been ‘finalized, but not yet turned in.’

The couple have spent almost the entire summer apart – with Jennifer largely on the east coast while Ben remained at home in Los Angeles.

They even spent their actual wedding anniversary, which was on July 16, in different cities.

Ben was also notably absent from Jennifer’s lavish Bridgerton-themed 55th birthday celebration in The Hamptons in late July.

The couple have not been pictured publicly together since June 2, 2024 but Jennifer was seen leaving his $100,000-per-month Brentwood rental home last week.

She was visiting him on his 52nd birthday along with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, 51, and children.

Split speculation began in late April following the release of Jennifer’s Amazon Prime Video doc The Greatest Love Story Never Told in February.

The film exposed the intimate details of her relationship with Ben, including how he kept his love letters from the singer throughout his marriage to Jennifer Garner.

The Boston-born actor is notoriously private and it was rumored that Jen’s love of the spotlight had become a source of tension between the pair.

Both Ben and Jen have been pictured publicly with and without their wedding rings in recent months.

A source recently told Page Six that Jennifer has been left ‘humiliated’ by the split and that she’s ‘furious’ with Ben.

‘He’s humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago,’ they dished. ‘This is some kind of a record, they’re not young kids.’

The insider explained to Page Six that Lopez is also angry due to their children being involved in the split.

Lopez has formed a close bond with Affleck’s three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — Violet, 18, Fin, 15, and Samuel, 12 — and has continued to spend time with them amid the split.

Lopez has 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, 55, who have also grown close to Ben in the last three years.

Is a turbulent breakup in store for Ben & JLo?

Yes

No

Not sure

‘There are five kids involved in this. She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted it is over,’ the source continued.

The source went onto say that Ben was holding off filing for divorce in a bid to ‘protect’ Jennifer.

Earlier this month, TMZ reported that the couple were refusing to talk in person or over the phone. And instead of enlisting the help of lawyers, they have been communicating through their respective business managers.

It was also claimed at the time that the couple had planned to hire divorce lawyers after reaching a settlement.

Jennifer and Ben’s love story dates back to 2002 when they met on set of the box office bomb Gigli (2003).

‘Bennifer’ quickly became the Hollywood ‘It couple’ of the early 2000s.

To mark their first wedding anniversary, Jennifer penned a gushing letter to Ben on her Instagram that included never-before-seen photos from their August 2022 nuptials

But their whirlwind romance came to an end in early 2004, when she and the Armageddon star abruptly called off their engagement.

In her recent Amazon Prime Video documentary, Jennifer shed light on their tumultuous initial two-year relationship, which garnered significant public attention, placing strain on the couple.

‘Ben and I broke up three days before our wedding and we crumbled under the pressure,’ she revealed to the cameras.

‘I had a broken heart once I lost the love of my life, my best friend, and I couldn’t talk for so many years and that was the hardest part.

‘I used to think it was everyone else who was broken, now I think it was just me.’

After 17 years apart and two failed marriages, Ben and Jennifer decided to rekindle their romance in May 2021.

‘We’re totally different people now and we’re the same and we have the same love 100 percent. Like I’d never fallen out of love with [Ben],’ Jennifer confessed in 2024’s The Greatest Love Story Never Told.

Ben popped the question in April 2022 with a stunning green diamond engagement that had ‘Not. Going. Anywhere’ engraved on the band.

It was special to Jennifer as it was ‘how he would sign his emails when we started talking again,’ she told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe in November 2022.

In July 2022, Ben and Jennifer tied the knot in a Las Vegas wedding chapel.

The following month, the couple held a star-studded wedding ceremony at Ben’s sprawling Georgia compound.

To mark their first wedding anniversary, Jennifer penned a gushing letter to Ben on her Instagram.

‘One year ago today …. Dear Ben, Sitting here alone Looking at my ring ring Feeling overwhelmed It makes me wanna sing sing How did we end up here Without a rewind Oh my This is my life…’ she wrote.

The Jenny From The Block hitmaker included two never-before-seen photos from their August 2022 nuptials, including a photo of the kissing as fireworks went off at their wedding reception.

Though split rumors didn’t reach a fever pitch until 2024, fans of the couple began speculating that Ben was ‘miserable’ in the relationship back in 2023.

This mostly stemmed from Ben’s apparent dislike of red carpet festivities that Jennifer frequented, as well as several seemingly heated interactions that were caught on camera.
