After two years of marriage global pop sensation and actor Jennifer Lopez and her husband, actor Ben Affleck, are officially calling it quits.

Jennifer and Ben first met on the sets of comedy film Gigli and fell in love in 2002. The Unstoppable actor popped the question with a custom 6.1-carat pink diamond ring from Harry Winston. He also appeared as Lopez’s love interest in the music video for her 2002 single “Jenny from the Block.” The couple postponed their wedding in 2003 and officially split in 2004.
