But 2021 arrived and, with it, the ‘Benifer’ phenomenon, that is, the couple gave themselves a second chance almost 20 years later. They started a new relationship and they did it in such an intense way that in 2022 they got engaged again. The protagonists themselves have said that Affleck proposed to JLo at home while she was taking a bath: “Saturday night, while I was in my favorite place on earth (in the bubble bath), my beautiful love got down on one knee and proposed.””I just looked into his eyes smiling and crying at the same time, trying to wrap my head around the fact that after 20 years this was happening again… I was literally speechless and he said, ‘Is that a yes? ‘ I said, ‘YES, of course he is a YES’ ‘. The engagement ring Ben gave Jennifer features a cut green diamond and is similar in style to the pink diamond he gave her at his first proposal.

These months ago the couple has been photographed in search of a house in which to live together. They have also spent a lot of time with each other’s children in an attempt to bring their families together. Nothing is confirmed yet, but it seems that the marriage will finally move to a property in Beverly Hills.
