Has Jennifer Lopez Been Married Before? How many spouses has JLo had?

Jennifer Lopez has been linked to several high-profile romances since her debut in the profession.

She’s been married three times and has been engaged twice before calling those partnerships off.

J. Lo was candid about her dating history in a 2019 interview with Harper’s Bazaar. 

“For me, the relationship journey has been very up and down. But it didn’t have to do with anybody else but me it was about me figuring out me,” said Jennifer. “Until you learn to love yourself, you can’t completely love [someone else] in a way that is pure and true.”

Since that conversation, a lot has happened, including the rekindling of her relationship with her then-ex-now-husband, Ben Affleck.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Ben Affleck

J.Lo and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli in 2002, and the couple engaged less than a year later. The pair, known as “Bennifer,” called off their wedding in 2004.

In May 2021, speculations circulated that they had restarted their romance. 

However, since reuniting, they have routinely posted photographs and videos online of romantic vacations and family moments, causing admirers to rename the couple Bennifer 2.0.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck married in Las Vegas on Sunday, according to media reports, after the famous pair rekindled their romance almost 20 years after they originally met.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Ojani Noa

J.Lo met her first husband, Ojani Noa, an aspiring entertainer, while he was working as a waiter in a Miami restaurant in the late 1990s.

In February 1997, the Selena singer married the producer, but their marriage was short-lived; they split 11 months later.

A court-appointed arbitrator ordered a permanent injunction prohibiting Noa from “criticizing, degrading, portraying in a bad light, or otherwise insulting” his ex-wife in August 2007.

In 2016, Noa appeared on Millionaire Matchmaker.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Alex Rodriguez

Jennifer and Rodriguez appeared to be not only the ideal power couple but also each other’s biggest fan.

The pair announced their engagement on Instagram on March 10, 2019.

The couple had intended to marry in the summer of 2020, but they had to postpone their wedding date twice due to COVID-19 before calling it off.

There were also accusations that Alex cheated on Jennifer with Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy, but it’s unclear whether this had anything to do with the separation.

J-Lo and A-Rod announced their separation in a joint statement.

The statement reads. “We have realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so,” “We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects.”

And that they “wish the best for each other and one another’s children.”

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Chris Judd

Judd and Lopez originally met on the set of Lopez’s “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” music video in 2000. Judd was a backup dancer for the singer.

Judd apparently proposed to J.Lo in June, and the couple married in September in a “secret” ceremony that the press was only told about the day before.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Drake

Late in 2016, there were rumors that J.Lo was in a relationship with Drake.

On the Ellen Show in February 2017, she debunked the rumors, claiming that they were merely “hanging out” and that they had been working on a song together. 

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Marc Anthony

J.Lo and Marc Anthony were married for seven years until 2011 when they finally got divorced. Maximilian and Emme are the Celebrity couple’s children. 

J.Lo stated that while they were married, Marc “really helped me with my confidence, and he recognized where I suffered,” and that he frequently reminded her she was “a brilliant singer” and urged her not to let anyone make her doubt it.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Beau ‘Casper’ Smart

In November 2011, just four months after divorcing Anthony, Lopez, and Smart who was a backup dancer started a relationship. 

Lopez later engaged Smart as the creative director of her Las Vegas residency, All I Have.

In 2014, a gossip website “The Dirty” claimed to have evidence that Smart had been exchanging images and messages with a transgender model.

They separated up in June of that year but had an on-again, off-again romance until their split was finalized in 2016.

Jennifer Lopez’s Relationship With Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs

Lopez and the hip-hop mogul first connected while working on a music video in 1999, and their relationship ended in 2001.

The Singer and actress alleged Diddy was unfaithful to her in a 2003 interview with Vibe magazine.

For his part, the former rapper waxed lyrical about Lopez in 2017, declaring that she was “without a doubt” one of his great loves.
