Ben Affleck and JLo Call it Quits

Friday January 23, 2004
People magazine is reporting what everyone has suspected for months - Bennifer is no more. "I am confirming the reports that Jennifer Lopez has ended her engagement to Ben Affleck," J.Lo's publicist said. "At this difficult time, we ask that you respect her privacy." For weeks, rumors have swirled around the couple. Jennifer Lopez, 34, has been spotted in the company of ex-love P.Diddy, and around town without her 6.1 carat pink diamond engagement ring. Meanwhile, Ben Affleck, 31, attended the Sundance Film Festival and the European premieres of his film "Paycheck" without her. Although publicists did their best to quash any rumors of a breakup, it appears that the rumor mill had it right for once. The pair had originally planned a lavish elaborate wedding for September 2003, but called it off at the last minute. That split didn't last for long, and the couple were again seen together in public soon afterwards, supposedly planning a more quiet affair. The two met while filming the disastrous "Gigli", which both have publicly acknowledged as a failure. This was to have been Jennifer's third marriage, and Ben's first.
