Jennifer Lopez Celebrates Her Twins’ Birthday With Video That Has Ben Affleck In It

Jennifer Lopez is an iconic Hollywood star who became a household name back at the end of the 90s and early 2000s. She started off as a dancer as a Fly Girl in the famous TV series In Living Colour until she decided to pursue her acting career. In 2003, at the height of her career, she came across Ben Affleck on the set of the movie Gigli. And the rest was history. 

The two became one of the most iconic couples in Hollywood and are still talked about today. In 2004, the iconic couple called it off, but recently, it seems like the two have come back together. Jennifer Lopez shared a video celebrating the birthday of her twins, Max and Emme. The video features, you guessed it—Ben Affleck.

Present And History

Both Emme and Max turned 15 recently. The artist shares the twins with her ex-husband Marc Anthony. She wished the kids were on her social media and posted a beautiful video of them with the family, and it also included her now husband, Ben Affleck. Here’s what she wrote:

“I am so proud of you both in every single way. You bring so much joy and happiness to my heart and soul. I love you beyond forever ??♾️♾️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY ?? #Twins.”

The children are an integral part of the relationship between the two of them. In fact, before Ben proposed to Lopez, he was seen browsing engagement rings with his son. It was inevitable for him to eventually propose to her so they could get married all over again. In 2022, after their engagement, the two got married once again in Las Vegas.

But what went wrong before? The reason they called off their first wedding back in 2004 was because of overly exhausting media attention. This was meant to be a great moment for the couple, but they had to go as far as considering getting fake decoy brides to drive the media away from the actual venue.

With so much attention and eyes on them, they felt pressured, and they had no privacy. They still tried postponing their wedding in 2003. Here’s their joint statement from then:

Due to the excessive media attention surrounding our wedding, we have decided to postpone the date. When we seriously contemplated hiring three separate ‘decoy brides’ at three different locations, we realized something was awry. We began to feel that the spirit of what should have been the happiest day of our lives could be compromised. We felt what should have been a joyful and sacred day could be spoiled for us, our families, and our friends.

Unfortunately, the postponement didn’t do the job, and the two celebrities moved on. Affleck married Jennifer Garner, and Lopez married Marc Anthony. However, now the two are together. In fact, their children, Emme, Max, Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel, gave them away at the nuptials back in Las Vegas in 2022. 

In the birthday video, Affleck held baby Max in his arms as he fell asleep. After years of being away, the two have finally reunited. Hopefully, this time around, it is for the long run. Jennifer Lopez commented about Affleck as a father:

“Seen (a) more consistent, loving and selfless father.” She said as she shared a tribute on Father’s day. “And it’s not just to your own kids but also without obligation to mine. You show up and put them first always. You are affectionate and engaged in every moment they are with you and it’s honestly one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.”
