The second engagement for Bennifer 2.0 comes almost 20 years after they were first engaged in 2002 and split two years later in 2005. After parting ways, the two remained friends and Ben married Garner and called it quits in 2018, whereas Lopez had twins with her ex-husband Marc Anthony and they separated in 2014. 

In April 2021, Bennifer got back together and a month later, they confirmed, "full-on dating and very happy together." They kept it on the down low for a few months but made it official on JLo's birthday in July 2021 when the couple celebrated the day on a yacht. A source said, "The past few months have been a real whirlwind. They’re well aware some cynics still look at it as a big flashy attention grab and roll their eyes at the speed of it all, but it doesn’t faze them one iota. They’re fully committed to taking the next steps and spending the rest of their lives together."

Speaking of the Jennifers, a source said, "J. Lo has Jennifer Garner’s seal of approval. J. Lo thinks Jennifer is a kind and wonderful person and an amazing mother.”
