Round Two! Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez Are Engaged, Singer Shows Off Her Ring

Off the market! Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are engaged again — almost one year after they reunited.
The singer confirmed the news via her JLo newsletter, and she showed off her ring, saying, "You're perfect."
"Major announcement!!!! OnTheJLo.com," she wrote on Instagram.
"So, I have a really exciting and special story to share. So, if you're not part of my inner circle, you have to go OnTheJLo.com to hear this one. I don't know if you guys know what that is, but it's my inner circle where I share more personal things, and this one is definitely OnTheJLo," she said in the video clip.
Naturally, Lopez's fans were elated to hear the news. One person wrote, "The happy news we love to hear! 😍💚🤩," while another added, "QUEEN WE LOVE YOU 😍😢🙌."
A third person gushed, "SOOOOO Excited for this One 😍."
The actor and the singer were together from 2002 to 2004, but they couldn't make things work. After Lopez and Alex Rodriguez split in 2021, the two found their way back to one another.
"We're older now, we're smarter, we have more experience, we're at different places in our lives, we have kids now, and we have to be very conscious of those things. We're so protective because it is such a beautiful time for all of us," Lopez gushed over her and Affleck's connection. "It's beautiful the way it feels very different than it was years ago. … There's more of an appreciation and a celebration for it, which is nice. … When you find somebody and you really, really love them and you get a second chance at that? That is a really rare, precious, beautiful thing and we don't take it for granted."
For his part, the Good Will Hunting alum added, "I can say that it's definitely beautiful to me. It is a good story. It's a great story. And, you know, maybe one day I'll tell it. I'll write it all out. And then I'll light it on fire."
It's no surprise Affleck and Lopez are taking the next step, as the two recently bought a house together in California, and earlier this week Lopez was seen with a ring on her finger.
Congrats to the gorgeous duo!
