What No Prenup Really Means for J.Lo and Ben Affleck Divorce
News of Jennifer Lopez filing for divorce from fellow movie star hubby Ben Affleck seemed inevitable by the time Lopez officially filed on Tuesday—but one thing that was unexpected was the reveal that the couple may not have had a prenuptial agreement in place.
Lopez and Affleck officially wed in Las Vegas in July of 2022, but had a more formal wedding with family and friends on August 20 of that same year. The date of Lopez’s filing immediately caught the attention of fans who speculated that the star was making a statement by filing on their two-year anniversary this week.
But in the romance of the moment—Affleck had the words “not.going.anywhere.” engraved on Lopez's engagement ring—if TMZ’s reporting is accurate, the couple didn’t put anything in place to protect their sizable earnings in the event of a split. Lopez’s filing did not include any mention of a prenup, prompting speculation it was never drawn up.
