Jennifer Lopez is opening up about her passionate relationship with Ben Affleck in her new album, 'This Is Me...Now.' The 54-year-old singer doesn't hold back any details, getting raunchy on the chorus of her song 'Greatest Love Story Never Told.' With lyrics like 'Missing your body / Climbing on top of me / Slipping inside of me / Way that I ride it / Bodies aligning / Look at our timing,' it's clear that Lopez is expressing her intimacy with Affleck.
The track delves into their decades-long love story, describing how they found each other twice in one lifetime as 'destiny.' Their love story began in 2001 when they met on the set of their movie, 'Gigli,' and they quickly started dating. In November of that same year, Affleck, who was 51 at the time, proposed to Lopez with a stunning 6.1-carat pink diamond from Harry Winston, reportedly costing $2.5 million.
However, despite their engagement, the couple decided to postpone their wedding due to the excessive media attention surrounding their relationship. They issued a joint statement in 2003, explaining the situation and expressing their concerns about the compromises that could be made on what should have been the happiest day of their lives.
In 2004, their wedding was officially called off, and the former couple went their separate ways. But nearly two decades later, Affleck and Lopez caused quite a stir when they were spotted hanging out together in Los Angeles in April 2021 and in Montana the following month. Their reunion made headlines and brought back memories of their previous relationship.
In the summer of that year, they finally made their love Instagram-official and got engaged for the second time. Their long-awaited wedding took place in July 2022 in Las Vegas. After tying the knot, Lopez shared her joy on social media, writing, 'We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.'
Lopez recently spoke about her relationship with Affleck in an interview with Vogue, expressing how he makes her feel more beautiful than ever before. She explained that Affleck wants her to understand her worth and know her value, bringing her a sense of relaxation and comfort that she had never experienced before. Lopez is finally at a point in her life where she loves every part of herself unapologetically, including her body, voice, choices, and even her mistakes. She believes that all of these aspects have shaped her into the person she is today.
In addition to her new album, 'This Is Me...Now,' Lopez has also released a documentary called 'This Is Me...Now: A Love Story,' which will be available on Amazon Prime on February 27. With this project, she invites fans to further explore her personal journey and the love story with Affleck.
