Jennifer and Ben Affleck are now legally married! The beautiful couple apparently obtained a marriage license and wed in Las Vegas!
According to the marriage license obtained by Hollywood Life, the pair tied the knot on Saturday, July 16 in Clark County, Nevada. The two however, have to still make their personal comments on the issue.
Per TMZ, the couple wed in Las Vegas after acquiring their marriage license. Why so sudden? Or is it really sudden? One should note that back in March it was reported that Jennifer Lopez wants to be married sooner than later, and that while a big wedding is nice, she does not mind getting the formalities done away already.
"Jennifer will tell you she's not in a rush to get married, but her friends think otherwise," a source exclusively revealed to Us Weekly. "The truth is that if Ben wanted to push this forward as early as this summer, she'd be totally down with that."
The insider added that the Marry Me star, 52, "wants the formalities out of the way so they can start their journey as man and wife sooner rather than later," and she intends to have a big wedding.
Does this mean after this Vegas ceremony, there would be another grand wedding?

For everyone that follows their romance, it is a fact that the relationship between the global superstar and the award-winning actor is a unique one, but very sweet. Theirs proved that the second time just might really be sweeter and that giving another person a second chance just might work, despite the years that have passed.
They met for the first time in 2001 on the set of their 2003 film Gigli. Jennifer was married to Cris Judd throughout filming, but they divorced in 2003. Ben and Jennifer made their relationship public in 2002 and became engaged in November of that year. However, they separated in January 2004. Jennifer went on to marry Marc Anthony and have children with him, while Ben did the same with actress Jennifer Garner.
Lopez and Anthony divorced in 2012, whilst Affleck and Garner announced their separation in 2015. Lopez began dating MLB star Alex Rodriguez shortly after Affleck became single and would become engaged to him in 2019.
After two postponed weddings due to the coronavirus epidemic, Lopez and Rodriguez concluded in April 2021 that they would be better off as friends. Strangely, Lopez and Affleck were seemingly back together in the twinkling of an eye.
First months of their reconciliation certainly created a whirlwind of reports. Many fans cannot believe it. Some found it too surreal.
The power couple became engaged in April after Affleck proposed with a stunning 8.5-carat, $5 million green diamond acquired from Ilan Portugali of Beverly Hills Diamonds.
Lopez made the announcement via her newsletter. Bennifer 2.0 felt even more official that day.
As they sought for their future home, the pair was photographed on PDA-filled date nights and house tours following their engagement.
Following that, there were reports of them looking for a home. There were also reports of them individually stating their reconciliationt this time is for real and that their relationship this time is miles from how it was in the past, confident that they would end up married and together for a long, long time.
It appears that the day for this jourrney to start has come!
