- Jennifer Lopez has revealed that Ben Affleck proposed to her while she was taking a bubble bath.
- The "Marry Me" star said she was "taken off guard" by the proposal and said it was "nothing fancy at all."
Jennifer Lopez has opened up about how Ben Affleck proposed to her in the bubble bath and made her "biggest dream" come true.
Affleck proposed to the "Marry Me" actor earlier this month, according to People, and Lopez has now revealed details about how it took place.
Writing in her newsletter, On The JLo, the singer and actor described the proposal as "nothing fancy at all" and said she and Affleck were "two very lucky people."
"Did you ever imagine your biggest dream could come true?" she wrote. "Saturday night while at my favorite place on earth (in the bubble bath), my beautiful love got on one knee and proposed."
She continued: "I was taken totally off guard and just looked in his eyes smiling and crying at the same time trying hard to get my head around the fact that after 20 years this was happening all over again, I was quite literally speechless and he said, 'is that a yes?' I said YES of course that's a YES."
Lopez also revealed her engagement ring for the first time, a green stone set into a silver band. "Green has always been my lucky color and now, for sure, it always will be," she wrote.
"I was smiling so big and tears were coming down my face, feeling so incredibly happy and whole," Lopez continued. "It was nothing fancy at all, but it was the most romantic thing I could've ever imagined... just a quiet Saturday night at home, two people promising to always be there for each other."
"Two very lucky people. Who got a second chance at true love," she concluded.
Affleck and Lopez began dating for the first time in 2002 and got engaged that year. After postponing their wedding, they split in January 2004. Lopez officially confirmed that they'd rekindled their relationship in July 2021.
