Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck settled their divorce and ask for the judge's approval

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have reached an agreement on their divorce and are asking a judge to finalize the split.

Lopez filed records in Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday that reveal the former couple reached an agreement to divorce through mediation in September, nearly a month after she filed.

While the majority of their divorce’s financial specifics have not been made public, neither star will pay spousal support to the other. Lopez will delete Affleck from her official name after the divorce is finalized.

The famous pair wedded in July 2022. Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, despite the couple’s claims in court that they split in April 2023.

After meeting, falling in love, and being engaged in the early 2000s — and starring together in 2003’s controversial “Gigli” and 2004’s “Jersey Girl” — the couple split up, citing the pressures of the public glare.

But, to the delight of many, and perhaps the disbelief of others, they reunited and married two decades later.

According to records released on Monday, the couple settled the financial aspects of their divorce through mediation rather than lengthy judicial proceedings.

The couple has no children together. Affleck divorced Jennifer Garner, with whom he has three children, in 2018. Lopez is married four times and has twins with singer Marc Anthony.

The settlement documents were originally made public by celebrity website TMZ.
