Celebrity pair Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot Saturday — for the second time in just over a month — in a lavish ceremony at the “Good Will Hunting” star’s estate, US media reported.
The A-list couple had tied the knot in mid-July, but made it official again, this time in front of friends and family at Affleck’s 87-acre (35-hectare) waterfront compound in the southeastern US state of Georgia.
According to People magazine, longtime Affleck pal Matt Damon and filmmaker Kevin Smith were among the Hollywood types present at the three-day bash.
Jennifer is 53 years old, while Affleck is 50, They initially connected on the production of the critically panned film Gigli in 2002.
They became a media sensation as they dated but postponed their planned 2003 nuptials, then announced their relationship was over in early 2004.
“Bennifer” — the couple’s public nickname from their first highly publicized relationship — set the internet alight last year when photos of them together again began circulating.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck announced their engagement in April. Lopez posted a video of herself appearing emotional and admiring a green ring in her newsletter, “On The JLo.” US media reported that the ring was an emerald-cut pale green diamond.
This is the fourth marriage for Lopez and the second for Affleck. Lopez discussed her renewed relationship with Affleck in an interview with People in February. “It’s a beautiful love story that we got a second chance,” she said.
