Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck Celebrate First Valentine’s Day As Married Couple With Romantic Outing
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just had their first Valentine’s Day as husband and wife.
People reported that the 53-year-old songstress and the 50-year-old actor marked the occasion with a romantic dinner at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California, on Tuesday. As noted, it was their first Valentine’s Day together as a married couple after tying the knot in mid-2022.
Affleck is said to have held hands with Lopez as he helped her out of their car during the outing.
The “Argo” actor donned a midnight blue three-piece suit, while the “On The Floor” singer wore a belted, two-toned frock and completed the look with strappy metallic heels, as per the magazine.
Aside from the romantic dinner, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez also marked their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple with matching tattoos.
Earlier on Tuesday, the “Marry Me” actress shared a series of photos on Instagram, featuring snaps of their new tattoos.
In a report covering the social media update, Page Six noted that the first photo from the post shows Lopez with her new infinity sign ink that also has an arrow striking through the middle.
The infinity symbol is said to feature the two celebrities’ names, with “Jennifer” written on one end and “Ben” on the other.
As for the “Accountant” actor, the outlet stated that his new tattoo appears to be two overlapping arrows with their initials, “J” and “B,” inscribed between the shafts.
Jennifer Lopez wrote in the caption, “Commitment,” and included an infinity emoji, before adding, “Happy Valentine’s Day my love,” alongside a white heart emoji.
Apart from the photos of their new tattoos, the “This Is Me… Then” artist also posted several shots of herself with Ben Affleck. Some were seemingly taken recently, while the last two were from their romance in the early 2000s.
The post has amassed more than 3.1 million likes. It has also received over 20,000 comments as fans and followers expressed their adoration for the celebrity couple.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas on July 16.
Citing the legal documents it obtained, Us Weekly noted at the time that the two personalities got a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada, earlier that day.
An insider also told the outlet then that the DCEU actor and the “Selena” actress could not wait for their wedding any longer, adding that they exchanged vows that weekend.
Hours later, Lopez confirmed the matter and shared some details from their wedding via “On the JLo” newsletter, writing in part, “We did it. Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient.”
