Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's romantic journey has been a rollercoaster which has spanned two decades.
The couple are now happily married but back in 2004 they called time on their relationship and canceled their nuptials.
Now, they've revealed the reason behind their break-up and detailed the wedding that never happened.
Speaking about their relationship in their Amazon Prime documentary, The Greatest Love Story Ever Told, Jennifer confessed the demise of their relationship came only days before they were set to say 'I Do'.
"Ben and I, we broke up three days before our wedding," she said before sharing never-before-known details of their planned big day.

Ben confessed that "the massive amount of scrutiny around our private life," was to blame.
JLo recalled how difficult it was for her at the time, telling the cameras. "For all those years, it was really hard because I didn't just feel like I lost the love of my life, I felt like I lost the best friend that I ever had. And I couldn't talk for so many years, and that was the hardest part."

While they don't have children together, they adore their blended family. Jennifer added: "I feel like I came out the other side. I've made it through. I've made something good of my life. I'm proud of that."

When we found ourselves seriously contemplating hiring three separate 'decoy brides' at three different locations, we realized that something was awry.
"We began to feel that the spirit of what should have been the happiest day of our lives could be compromised. We felt what should have been a joyful and sacred day could be spoiled for us, our families and our friends."
