Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck make it official with lip-locked birthday photo
Jennifer Lopez acknowledged her reunion with ex-boyfriend Ben Affleck in a post on her 52nd birthday.
It was hidden amid a slew of other photos from her 52nd birthday vacation to St. Tropez, yet there it was for everyone to see—a smoldering picture of her kissing Ben.

On Saturday, the singer celebrated her 52nd birthday by posting a series of pictures on Instagram clad in a pink and orange stringed bikini, a beautiful floral beach cover up, and a straw hat. On the last slide, she donned her new-but-old lover Affleck, with their lips locked.
Lopez and Affleck divorced in 2004 amid continuous media coverage of their romance and subsequent engagement, with tabloids calling the pair “Bennifer”

She captioned her Instagram photo, “52… what it do,” with a love emoji.
This is the first time Lopez or Affleck have posted anything about their rekindled romance.
Following J-Lo’s split with former New York Yankees baseball star Alex Rodriguez, rumors circulated that they were reuniting earlier this year.
Prior to Saturday’s birthday kiss, the two made their Instagram debut on behalf of Leah Remini, who uploaded a two-minute video montage Thursday featuring Lopez and Affleck cuddling together in a black-and-white photo.
Lopez and Affleck stayed on good terms after their breakup, with Affleck claiming earlier this year that she was mistreated by the media when they were together.
“People were so f***ing mean about her. Sexist, racist. Ugly, vicious s*** was written about her in ways that if you wrote it now, you would literally be fired for saying those things you said,” Affleck said
But it has taken a long time to get here. Ben married Jennifer Garner in 2005, shortly after separating from Jennifer, and the couple went on to have three children.
However, after 13 years of marriage, they split in 2018.
Ben and Lopez, who met in the early 2000s, filed for divorce in 2015. The couple stated, “After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce.”
“We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time. This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding.”
Lopez and Rodriguez announced their split on the “Today” program in April with a joint statement.
“We are better as friends and look forward to remaining so,” the statement said. “We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects.”
Lopez’s previous marriages include a 10-year marriage to musician Marc Anthony. The former couple had twins together before divorcing in 2014.
Affleck dated Deep Water co-star Ana de Armas in 2020 after meeting on set, but he’s back with Lopez.
