Let’s be real: Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were COUPLE GOALS! Despite splitting in March 2021, they had an epic romance. The two actually first met at a Yankees vs. Mets game in 2005. However, it wasn’t until many years later, in Feb. 2017, that they actually got together romantically. Of course, they both went through a LOT in the romance department before that. Jennifer was married to Ojani Noa from 1997-1998. After the split, she started dating Diddy, who she worked with on her first album. She went on to start dating Cris Judd, and they got married in Sept. 2001, only to split less than a year later in June 2002. Next, she was in a high-profile relationship with Ben Affleck, who she got engaged to in Nov. 2002. The two never got married, though, and split in 2004. Jennifer started dating Marc Anthony, who she married in June 2004 and had twins, Max and Emme, with in Feb. 2008. Jen and Marc split in 2011, and their divorce was finalized in June 2014. She dated Casper Smart on-and-off for five years after the 2011 split before eventually getting together with Alex in 2017. Meanwhile, Alex married Cynthia Scurtis in 2002, and they have two daughters together. She filed for divorce in 2008. Keep clicking through to see more photos from their romance.
