Jennifer López has once again placed herself at the top of the music scene after the premiere of her documentary “The Greatest Love Story Never Told”, which narrates the development of her most recent album, “This Is Me… Now”, released on last February 16, as well as the artist’s personal journey towards self-love.
As part of this “journey”, the material, directed by Jason Bergh, also features one of the most important people in the artist’s life: the actor and director Ben Affleck.
It is worth remembering that in previous interviews, the “On The Floor” singer has revealed the great support and motivation that the Oscar winner gave her during the work done on her latest album. However, and for the first time, the actress also showed one of the American’s “darkest” moments by revealing part of her much-talked-about breakup in 2004.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck: a love story
Within the documentary, in a moment of conversation between Affleck and López, the “Batman vs Superman” performer asks his wife if she has forgiven him for breaking up the relationship more than 20 years ago.
“I think I was very angry with you for a long time, but that broken heart put us both on a path to discover ourselves and be better people.”
After this confession, the singer also mentioned to her husband that she has “turned the page” and that it is now up to her to “forgive herself in some things” to heal all the wounds.
It should be noted that during 2002, the couple began dating after a large number of speculations and rumors. After a year of relationship, the couple began their marriage process. However, a few weeks after their wedding, the stars separated for various reasons, including media coverage.
After the breakup, both Affleck and López rebuilt their lives. The singer of Latin origin was in a relationship with salsa singer Marc Anthony, with whom she had her children Emme and Max, for several years. Meanwhile, Ben married fellow actress Jennifer Garner with whom he raised his three children: Violet, Seraphina and Samuel. After a few years, the actor also separated from Garner amid infidelity controversies.
After other relationships with various showbiz stars, López and Affleck met again in 2021, and just a year later, in 2022, the couple celebrated their long-awaited wedding.
