Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Were Photographed Kissing at a Bulgari Store

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck spent the last few days of 2023 together on vacation in St. Barts. Yes, prior to the getaway, there was that viral Bennifer kissing photo where Affleck was checking his phone. But paparazzi got a new photo of the couple locking lips while on the trip, and no device was in sight.

The pair had the PDA moment while shopping a Bulgari store for some luxury jewelry on December 29. Per the photo agency, Lopez tried on a necklace and earrings. Affleck took photos of her wearing them. He was seen looking at a gold bracelet as well. It’s unclear whether they bought anything then.

Entertainment Tonight obtained some other photos of the couple driving around the island that day. They wore matching white ensembles.

This month, the couple will celebrate one-and-a-half years of marriage. They have had one of Hollywood’s most remarkable reconciliation stories.

Lopez and Affleck first dated back in the early 2000s. They met in 2002 on the set of Gigli, but at the time, Lopez was married to her second husband, Cris Judd. Come July, Lopez filed for divorce from Judd. Two days after, she was seen kissing Affleck at her 32nd birthday party.

In November 2002, Affleck starred in Lopez’s iconic “Jenny from the Block” music video, (which Affleck later revealed he regretted doing). Not long after, the couple got engaged.

They were set to get married in September 2003, but a day before the nuptials, they released a joint statement sharing they had postponed the wedding. In January 2004, Lopez’s rep revealed that they called off their engagement. By June, Lopez was married to Latin singer Marc Anthony. In June 2005, Affleck married Jennifer Garner. Lopez and Anthony divorced in 2014, and Affleck and Garner split in 2018.

Fast forward to April 2021. A few weeks after Lopez’s breakup with professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez, Affleck was seen going to Lopez’s house by Page Six. One month later, the couple was officially back together.

They have not yet revealed the full details of how they reconciled, but Affleck teased it was a special story in a December 2021 interview with WSJ Magazine. “I can say that it’s definitely beautiful to me,” Affleck said.

In April 2022, Affleck and Lopez got engaged for the second time. They tied the knot that July in Las Vegas before having a second wedding in August for friends and family in Georgia.
