The 52-year-old has been dating Ben since 2021, after the pair reunited two decades after they first ended their engagement.

JLo and actor Ben started dating in 2002 and he popped the question in the same year, but they split in 2003 before rekindling their romance in 2021.

JLo's daughter wasn't the only family member to join them either as Ben's son, Samuel, from his marriage to Jennifer Garner was also with them.
