Ben Affleck kept love letters from Jennifer Lopez during his marriage to Jennifer Garner
Ben Affleck kept letters and messages from Jennifer Lopez even during his marriage to Jennifer Garner. This became known from Jennifer Lopez's documentary entitled The Greatest Love Story Never Told. For this act, Affleck was condemned by fans of his ex-wife: such an attitude on his part seemed offensive to them. Interestingly, after this story, the couple, according to DailyMail, had to visit a psychologist together.
Lopez showed in her film an album in which Affleck saved letters. "Ben gave me this book on our first Christmas together. It contains every letter we wrote to each other 20 years ago and today."
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met in 2002 on the set of the film Jersey Girl. Soon they began dating and became one of the most prominent Hollywood couples. They were planning to get married in 2004, but a few days before the wedding they suddenly broke off their engagement. The reason for their breakup, according to them, was excessive attention from the paparazzi to their couple. After splitting from Lopez, Affleck married Jennifer Garner. They had three children during their marriage, and in 2015 they announced their separation. In 2018, the divorce was officially finalized. In 2022, Lopez and Affleck resumed their relationship, which ended in marriage. In the film, Affleck admitted that he hoped for a non-public romance, but made a compromise for the sake of his wife.
"I was heartbroken when I lost the love of my life, my best friend, and I couldn't talk about it for years and that was the hardest thing," Lopez said.
It’s interesting that Affleck’s relationship with his ex-wife is also good: so much so that, according to fans, he looks more cheerful in the company of Garner than with Lopez.
