“I love and support her. She is a great person, and I want people to know that,” he said.
Fame Was a Problem
One big problem in their marriage was fame. Lopez enjoys being in the public eye. She sings, acts, and has a fashion business. But Affleck does not like too much attention.
“Sometimes, couples have different ideas,” he said. “We had to figure out how to deal with that.”
In 2024, they made a documentary called The Greatest Love Story Never Told. Some people thought the film caused their breakup, but Affleck said that was not true.
“If you watch the documentary, you won’t see all our problems. Our issues were personal, not because of one thing,” he explained.
A Long Love Story
Affleck and Lopez got engaged in 2002, but they canceled their wedding in 2003 because too many people were watching them. They got back together in 2021 and married in 2022. First, they had a small wedding in Las Vegas, then a big wedding in Georgia.
Many fans were happy to see them together again. But some people wondered if they could handle fame this time. Even though their marriage ended, they still respect each other.
